Student Career Counseling

For students uncertain about their path, we explore values, strengths, and interests through dialogue, then organize options. We do not place students in jobs, and we do not steer them towards any school or provider. Because we take no referral fee from anyone, we have no reason to push one path over another. Pro bono (free of charge).

What We Do

  • Values & strengths articulation
  • Option mapping (employment, grad school, entrepreneurship, NPO, study abroad)
  • Decision-making process support
  • Arranging a conversation with someone who has been there (on request)

Target Audience

University & graduate students (any year)

Pricing

Pro bono (free of charge)

Estimated Duration

60 min per session, up to 3 sessions (talk to us if you want to continue)

How It Works

1

Application

Apply via online form. University name and year don't matter. 'I haven't decided anything yet' is a welcome starting point.

2

Listening to your situation

We explore your values, strengths, and interests through dialogue — not worksheets, but conversation that helps you articulate what matters.

3

Option exploration

We lay out options without bias and organize the pros, risks, and timelines of each.

4

Decision support

The final choice is always yours. ISVD provides questions that improve the quality of your decision-making.

Second Opinion

Business plans, organizational management, fundraising, design — we provide third-party feedback on any topic. The catch-all for 'I don't know where to ask.'
