2. Money based career planning:
This is another career planning mistake which most of the students tend to attempt.Career planning should be based on the field of interest and not on
the money that can be made by choosing it. If you dwell too much on how much money you could earn in a given occupation, you may come up short in other areas of job satisfaction.
3. Making decision on parent’s choice:
Not making a self decision is another big mistake which most of the students make; i.e., choosing a career based on your parent’s choice may one day turn to be a biggest injustice you have made in your career. Parent’s guidance is necessary but final decision making should be an individual choice.
4. Deciding jobs on experience basis:
This is another common mistake which students make. Experience gained by small jobs is also valuable. So, avoid considering jobs for experience on long range goals.
5. Not having a long-term career plan:
One should not plan his/her career on a short sight approach.Never choose a career that is been offered to you thinking that you can change it anytime.Keep in mind that changing the field of career can become a problem later.

Specialization in one particular field doesn’t mean that you are capable for that particular job. You can work on a wide range of approach using your specialized field. So, creativity also is important for planning a career.
8.Confusing what you're good at with what you like to do :
Choosing a job which you are good at with a job you like to do, may be a difficult one. It is of course the most confusing decision making process too. So, the best is to choose the job which you like to do, because it is were you have more interest and you can improvise also.
