What to Bring to Your First Counselling Appointment

25 July 2026 · Guide

Whether you're exploring overseas recruitment or study abroad through CareerRoot, coming to your first counselling session prepared makes the conversation more useful. Consider bringing:

  • Your passport (or details, if not yet issued)
  • An updated CV or academic transcripts, depending on your goal
  • Any trade certificates or language test scores you already have
  • A clear sense of your target sector, corridor, or study destination — even a rough one

Counselling is where we shortlist realistically against your actual academics, budget and career goals — the more accurate information you bring, the more useful the session.
