“UNIM Career Guidance was an unbelievably fulfilling experience. Rather than serving your future career path on a silver platter, the beauty of this workshop series lies in the pragmatic and meticulous approach to the professional world. UNIM seeks to make you understand yourself first, before slowly revealing the intricacies of the career market. In my case, this unique multi-directional approach, tailored to my needs and passions, has worked wonders. It helped me narrow down my options, even making some of my hesitations self-evident. My highlights of the program were the discovery of personality types and obviously, the human knot activity!
Kudos Dr. Nooreen Maherally!”

“Going through this career guidance program was an eye-opening experience that helped me understand how my skills and passions translate into a professional setting. I’ve always been drawn to issues of justice, equity, and systemic change, but this process allowed me to see how those interests align with tangible career paths in gender studies, law, and public policy. The mentorship and assessments not only reinforced my strengths in advocacy and critical analysis but also pushed me to think more deeply about leadership and the real-world impact of policy decisions. This experience gave me the confidence to pursue a future where I can drive meaningful change in legal and social systems.”
