The form can be filled while the student is discussing the best term to meet the job counsellor. If the
student has a career portfolio/file he /she should take it with himself/herself to the meeting with the
job counsellor. The better the student is prepared for the meeting, the more effective the meeting is
going to be. It will also make it easier to find the best solution adequate to the student's needs and
abilities.
The form is taken from the Vademecum of Job Counselling workshops („Vademecum
doradztwa edukacyjno - zawodowego”) organised by OPERON publishing house.
