1. Why should I take the PudheKai career assessments?

Our assessments help you understand your unique personality, interests, abilities, and family background. This insight enables us to recommend careers that are the best fit for you—not just based on marks or popular trends, but on who you are as a person. Taking the assessments is the first step toward making an informed and confident career decision.

2. Why is it important to make an informed career decision early?

• Avoid confusion and unnecessary changes in higher studies.
• Save time and resources by focusing on the right subjects and skills.
• Reduce stress from peer and family pressure.
• Plan your academic and professional journey in a way that suits your strengths and interests.

3. What is the difference between the Free and Paid tiers?

• Free Tier:
• Provides a quick assessment and basic career recommendations.
• Designed to give you an initial direction.
• Can be taken once every 6 months.
• Paid Tier:
• Offers a detailed, in-depth assessment with personalized reports, actionable roadmaps, and guidance on educational pathways.
• Includes specific recommendations based on multiple frameworks and additional support resources.
• Paid test can be taken any time after the free test—even immediately—but cannot be retaken within 6 months.

4. Why can’t I take the same test again before 6 months?

We want your results to truly reflect your current interests, abilities, and personality. Since these attributes don’t usually change quickly, restricting retakes ensures the assessment stays meaningful and prevents “over-testing.” However, if you take a free test and later choose to upgrade, you can take the paid test right away for a deeper analysis.

5. Can I take the paid assessment immediately after the free test?

Yes! If you want a more detailed report, you can take the paid assessment right after finishing the free test. The paid assessment is more comprehensive and gives you deeper insights. But even for paid users, we recommend waiting 6 months before retaking any test, unless you have had significant changes in your academic or personal circumstances.

6. What frameworks or models do you use in your assessments?

• Personality: HEXACO model
• Interests: RIASEC (Holland Codes)
• Abilities/Intelligences: Multiple Intelligences Theory
• Aptitude: Custom logical, numerical, verbal and pattern reasoning
• Career Context: Indian-context questionnaire (used as soft constraints)

These help us make recommendations that are relevant to you and the Indian education system.

7. Is my personal data safe? Will you share my details with anyone?

Your privacy is our top priority. We do not share your name, date of birth, family background, or any personal data with any third party. All career recommendations are generated anonymously. For more, see our Privacy Policy.

8. Can my parents/teachers access my assessment report?

Only you have access to your personal report. However, you can choose to download or share the report with your parents, teachers, or mentors.

9. What age group is PudheKai meant for?

PudheKai is designed for students aged 14 and above, typically from Class 9 onwards. This is the stage where career awareness and planning become important.

10. How is PudheKai different from other career guidance platforms?

• India-focused: Tailored to Indian students, considering local academic pathways and family context.
• AI-powered: Uses advanced AI to give personalized and unbiased recommendations.
• Holistic: Looks at personality, interests, abilities, and family background.
• Privacy-first: No sharing or selling of personal data.
