About Counsellor:
Mr. Rakesh Karkera has over 20 plus years of professional working experience in the corporate world. Worked as an Architect for leading IT firms in India and abroad, offering various solutions & services across patrons. A Bachelor in Electronics Engineering and a Certified Career Analyst & Counsellor with a mission to help and serve the youth by providing the right career guidance.
I help students discover careers that align with their interests, strengths, and values. When young individuals pursue work they love, they’re more likely to thrive, innovate, and contribute meaningfully to the society.
I help individuals understand not only what careers suit them best, but also what skills and qualifications are needed. This empowers them to stay competitive and adapt in a fast-changing economy.
With Artificial Intelligence (AI), automation, and digital transformation changing the nature of work, I stay updated on emerging trends and ensure my clients are guided toward future-proof career paths.
My counselling process also involves parents, educating them about modern career options in addition to traditional choices like engineering or medicine - fostering more supportive environments at home.
The AI-enabled assessment and guidance helps parents, students and professions in the right career path, thereby reducing the study and career related stress on an individual.

We completed the online assessment for my daughter during the weekend with Aspire One Careers. The counselor Rakesh ji was well experienced and aware of various career options for my child. He conducted the counseling one-one with her first and then with me and my husband. He explained the career-conflict that we and our child had with patience without being forceful. To create agreement on the conflict of interests we had, he chalked out a plan and explained how we can have a win-win path. It was amazing and his words were like enlightement for me, my husband and our daughter. Thank you from the bottom of our heart. It really made us all confident in taking the next crucial step.

As parents, we were quite confused about which career direction would be right for our daughter Aarna, who is currently in 9th standard. We wanted to be sure that the decisions we take now are aligned with her strengths and interests. The scientific career assessment conducted by AspireOne Careers gave us deep insights into Aarna’s personality, interests, learning style, and abilities. The comprehensive report was very detailed and eye-opening. The 1:1 counseling session with Mr. Rakesh Karkera helped us clearly understand the report and how it translates into real career options. He patiently addressed all our doubts and guided us to make an informed and confident decision for Aarna’s future. We highly recommend AspireOne Careers to parents who want clarity and expert guidance instead of guesswork when it comes to their child’s career.

We connected with Mr Rakesh of AspireOne Careers for my child''s career and course selection required for 9th and 10th as part of ICSE board. We were not sure what are his interests and career goals. An online career assessment was done and Rakesh sir explained each part of my son''s personalised career report which was perfect synch and gave us clear direction. We were able to conclude and finalise his course selection in a scientific way. Thank you sir and would recommend parents to connect with Sir for their ward''s course selections and career clarity.

We had a wonderful experience with the online career counseling session for my son who is in Grade 10. The online assessment was detailed, accurate, and very easy to understand. The counselor, Mr. Rakesh explained everything clearly, guided him with patience, and gave practical advice for stream selection. My son gained a lot of clarity and confidence after the session. Highly recommended for any parent looking for genuine career guidance.
