Talk about a time when you gave advice to someone
MODEL ANSWER
Well in my country people give free advice to each other all the time. People give advice even when nobody is asking. They do it to show care and help others.
Today, I would like to talk about a time when I gave advice to one of my cousins about what studies he should pursue for his senior secondary education. My cousin had recently completed his 10th standard and he was really confused about which stream he should opt for. He had the option to choose between science, commerce and arts. His doubts were related to career prospects in these streams and most importantly he asked me that which one is easy or difficult to pursue.
Since he was tired of studies, he did not want to put a lot of effort but still he wanted to have a successful life. Before advising him about the various streams I asked him about his interests and he told me that he was interested in Computers. He started using computer at a very early age, so he is really good at it. I told him about Computer programmers who work for companies like google. I told him about the work they do and how much salary they earn. I also showed him the offices of google and the facilities like gym, food and other games that are provided to the employees on campus.
He got motivated after learning all these details and decided he also wanted to become a computer programmer. So, I suggested him to take an aptitude test to check whether he has a logical mindset to pursue the science stream. He followed my advice and gave the aptitude test. His results showed that he had excellent skills to become a programmer. He was really happy with my advice and now he consults me for all the important decisions he has to make.
