My name is Alison Ruff and I have just completed a Level 7 Qualification in Careers Guidance. I have spent the last couple of years working as a voluntary careers adviser in schools, community organisations and for individuals.

A survey of 11,000 13- to 16-year-olds has revealed a 'massive mismatch' between young people's career expectations and available jobs, according to a BBC report. The survey, published by the Education and Employers Taskforce (EET), aimed to map the ambitions of teenagers against the employment market up to 2020. It stated that young people do not have an adequate knowledge of the jobs market and many will be aiming for jobs that are in short supply.
The survey highlights the need for better careers advice, said Nick Chambers, EET Director.
For instance, there are 10 times as many people aiming for jobs in the culture, media and sports sector than there are jobs likely to be available, And even though almost a quarter of jobs are in the distribution, hotels and restaurant category, only about one in 40 youngsters are considering careers in these industries.
Fewer than one in 30 young people are considering jobs in banking and finance, even though one in five jobs are expected to be in this sector.
