Careers360: How did you come to know about Careers360?

Dr Goyal: While I was looking for data, I started searching online about what are the colleges available for me and then I came across Careers360 as one of the platforms. So, I went and had a call with them and they told me about all the services they are providing.

Careers360: Was the guidance given as per your choice?

Dr Goyal: The team provided me with the guidance about what is the next step to be taken because the school counselling process is like a bigger task than preparing for NEET PG Exam. I had quite a few calls with the Careers360 team and they explained to me the whole process.

Careers360: What is the process being followed to get the students placed and do you like the process followed?

Dr Goyal: Yes, the team helped in understanding the steps of counselling, documents that need to be prepared and different options I have. They curated a list for me and also they gave suggestions about the things I can look for in the state counselling. This year's counselling there were quite a lot of delays from the state counselling especially the Karnataka PG medical counselling.

Careers360: How does your counsellor motivate you?

Dr Goyal: Careers360’s counsellor was of really great help. She gave me the confidence that I can let go of the DNB that I am getting and wait for state counselling and can get into MD/MS because by the time I was getting this DNB I had no other seating in hand. I wasn't really sure if it will be a wise choice to let go off what I am getting in the hope of something that I am not sure I will get or not but the team assured me with the data of last year that I do have good chances of getting into MD/MS and so I waited for the state counselling.

Careers360: In which branch got admission after the one-to-one counselling with our team?

Dr Goyal: For this year's counselling there were quite a lot of delays from the state counselling, especially the Karnataka state counselling which I was aiming for because of the high court case. I was getting DNB Institute but looking at last year's NEET PG cutoff, I was somewhere sure that I will get a good college. The OBG branch is one of the branches that I was hoping for.

Careers360: Are you happy? Will you recommend Careers360’s counselling package to your connections?

Dr Goyal: I have been able to get into this college. Finally I got MS OBG In JJM College Devangere and I'm really happy. I am so thankful to the team, thank you to careers360 for helping me in this journey. Thank you.
