St. Jude's School Hosts an Enriching Career Fair to Help Students Discover Their Future
St. Jude's School organised a Career Fair on the 13th of October 2026, coordinated by Mr. Amit Goyal, to acquaint Students with the wide range of paths open to them after Class 12. Built around the theme - Let's Figure It Out: What After 12th? The Event offered a platform to examine career pathways, understand undergraduate programmes and entrance-examination requirements, and make well-considered decisions about the future. With representatives from more than fifteen Universities and Institutions gathered under one roof, Students could speak directly with the delegates about courses, admission procedures, eligibility criteria and career prospects in different fields. The Institutions present included Graphic Era University, MIT-WPU, Jaipur National University, Shivalik University, DGU, Bennett University, SRGU, Quantum University, Sharda University, UPES, IMS University, IILM University, Tula's University, and Doon Defence Academy, among others. A major highlight was the series of thought-provoking talks by seasoned mentors. Mr. Nikhil Sharma stressed the value of effective communication and spoke about the role of mental well-being, self-respect, gratitude and self-esteem in shaping confident, responsible individuals. He reminded the audience that success depends not on academic achievement alone, but also on personal values, emotional resilience and the ability to express oneself well. Mr. Gaurav Nagar of Jaipur National University introduced the Hospitality sector and outlined the courses and openings offered by Overseas Universities. His talk widened the audience's view of Global Education and of the varied careers within the Hospitality industry. Among the most significant talks was that of Mr. Amit Goyal, Chief Mentor, who has over 25 years of experience in steering Students towards suitable undergraduate programmes. He explained the Common University Entrance Test (CUET) and its role in securing admission to various courses. He took the audience through the phases of the examination and the subject-selection requirements and underlined the need to make sound academic choices well in advance. He also pointed out frequent errors made while filling in application forms and explained how choosing the right subjects at the right stage can decide eligibility for a particular programme. Especially relevant for those navigating the complexities of admissions, his talk urged them to approach the process with awareness, accuracy and foresight. The fair drew over 500 Students, who explored a range of career options and interacted closely with University representatives and mentors. This direct exchange helped them clear their doubts, compare academic routes and understand what different Institutions and disciplines have to offer. It made the Event both informative and interactive, and brought the Students closer to clarity about their aspirations. The initiative proved fruitful, bridging the gap between Schools and Higher Education. It reinforced the need for timely counselling, sound decision-making and careful planning during the crucial transition from School to University. The Event was a reminder that choosing a career is much more than picking a course or securing a seat. It means recognising one's interests, understanding one's abilities and making choices that shape the journey ahead. By uniting Institutions with experienced mentors, the School gave its learners a chance to weigh possibilities, resolve uncertainties and step confidently towards their future. The message was clear: every young person deserves the chance to dream, explore, question and choose wisely, because the decisions made today can shape the life they aspire to build tomorrow.
