Hi,
Looking for career guidance for my son who completed his Leaving Cert in 2005. In the main he has no definite career aspirations. While he was an average student in school he made no real effort to acquire points as he had no intentions of going to college. He passed his Leaving Cert with 210 points . Today he has a part time job for 15-20 hours a week which he acquired last summer.
I am struggling to convince him of the need to push himself to acquire new skills , apply for new roles to gain additonal experience. He seems content to continue as is for the foreseeable future which I find difficult to accept.
Ideally I'm looking to get him career guidance , aptitude assessments to enable him make career plans. He my also require some personal development to grow his confidence and self belief. He is 19 and showing no signs of taking responsibility for his life.
Any suggestions on next steps
