FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is career counselling and how is it different from career mentoring?
Career counselling helps you diagnose fit — what work suits your behaviour, aptitude and interests. Dheya career mentoring goes further: a certified mentor walks you through the RAPD™ behavioural assessment, seven fit dimensions and a written report you can act on for years, not just one session.
How much does career counselling with Dheya cost in India?
Dheya sessions are tiered by product (Polaris, Compass, Northstar, Odyssey). Fees start at an affordable single-session diagnostic and scale up to multi-session programmes with mentor follow-through. See the compare-products page for current pricing per tier.
Do you offer in-person career counselling or is everything online?
Both. In-person sessions are available across the cities listed on this page — the mentor sits across the table from you. Elsewhere in India and worldwide, the same RAPD™ framework is delivered online by the same CPD-certified mentors, across timezones.
Who is career counselling for — students, working professionals or parents?
All three. We work with Class 8–12 students choosing streams and colleges, undergraduates deciding between careers, working professionals considering a pivot, and parents who want a structured framework rather than opinions from relatives.
How long does a Dheya career counselling session take?
A standard mentor session is 90 structured minutes, preceded by the RAPD behavioural assessment and followed by a written report. Multi-session packages extend the journey across 3–12 months with follow-through check-ins.
Are Dheya career mentors certified?
Yes. Every mentor is CPD-accredited, RAPD™-trained, progressed through supervised casework, identity- and background-verified, and reviewed annually against mentee outcomes — not just session counts.
