Where our information comes from
Career and exam advice affects real decisions, so we don't make numbers up. Salaries, qualifications and government routes are built from trusted public sources — India's official occupation and skills frameworks, national labour-market data and the government's own career service — and then reviewed by our counsellors before they go live. When rules or notifications change, we update.

"Meri beti ko Science aur Commerce ke beech bahut confusion tha. 2 sessions ke baad usne khud decide kiya ki commerce lena hai. Ab woh confident hai."

"I was skeptical about online counselling. But the structured approach — assessment first, then the session — felt very professional. My daughter came out with a written roadmap. Impressive."

Parents' most common questions
Is Lume Career Intelligence free to use?
Yes. You can browse careers and government jobs and see salary ranges, qualifications and entrance exams for free. Taking our free 60-second test ranks every career to your child's strengths. A detailed, counsellor-reviewed roadmap is optional at ₹1,499.
Which stream should my child choose after Class 10?
There is no single right stream — it depends on your child's interests, strengths and the careers they are drawn to. Use the Route Builder to compare Science, Commerce, Humanities and vocational or ITI routes against real careers before deciding, and keep options open where possible.
What government jobs can my child aim for after Class 12?
Many — from SSC CHSL, Railway NTPC and India Post to NDA for defence and state police roles. The Government Jobs Explorer lists 50+ pathways with eligibility, exams, age limits and pay, and links to the official notification for each.
Are the salary figures guaranteed?
No. Salary ranges are honest, conservative India-market estimates shown with a confidence level — not promises. Real pay varies with city, employer, marks, internships, portfolio and communication skills.
How does "matched to your child" work?
After the free 60-second test, your child's interest profile (based on the RIASEC framework) is used to rank every career by fit, so the strongest matches show first — with Strong-fit and Good-fit labels.
Where does your career information come from?
Careers, qualifications and government routes are built from trusted public sources — India's official occupation and skills frameworks (NCO, NSDC), national labour-market data (PLFS) and the National Career Service — then reviewed by our counsellors before going live.
