Summer’s Answer

Growing and advancing in any field requires experience and knowledge, to gain that you have to be okay with starting with a low level position and then getting involved in as many learning opportunities as you can, get your feet wet in as much of the different business areas and processes that you can because that's what's going to give you both the experience and the knowledge to grow in the field. Be patient and don't think growth comes overtime but if you work hard, you'll get there.

Jeremy’s Answer

Hi Dylan,

I think that in any career, not just the field you're asking about, the key to moving up the ladder is gaining a large deal of industry and company knowledge. This means developing skills deep within your current job but also seeking opportunities to gain knowledge on areas outside of your current job. Depth and breadth of skills helps get you visibility as well and is key to promotion.

Hope this helps!

Dina’s Answer

Hi, I would start by looking for some volunteer or internship positions, you can call your local counseling centers or even a charity organization that supports counseling services in your area.  I would google counseling services near me and see if they have time to speak to you about it.

Dina recommends the following next steps:

Write down your goals
Write down some local counseling centers that may offer some advice.
