Authors:Jacobus Gideon Maree Pages: 15 - 24 Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 15-24, April 2024. This article reflects on several factors that influence the art and science of career counselling in different contexts. An adapted systematic literature review was implemented to examine developments in the career counselling field and to explore innovative career counselling strategies that have universal relevance and sustainability in the Anthropocene era. The continued relevance and functionality of career counselling in South Africa (as an example of a Global South, developing country reflective of the situation globally) is examined. I reflect on a possible theoretical and conceptual framework for career counselling in the ‘career Counsellocene’ era and I argue for an approach that contextualises career counselling in different contexts in the future workplace and meets the career-counselling needs of people in the Anthropocene era. A career-counselling approach is needed that emphasises the importance of eco-awareness in reversing the impact of human abuse on the environment.

Authors:Jason L Brown, Peter McIlveen, Harsha N Perera, Sara J Hammer Pages: 25 - 35 Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 25-35, April 2024. Dispositional employability can be understood as a psychosocial process that facilitates the enactment of behaviors directed toward career self-management. This investigation aimed to test the validity of a measure of dispositional employability to predict salient career outcomes in university students. Two studies using distinct samples of students at a multi-campus university in Australia deployed surveys containing measures of dispositional employability, career adaptability, and job search self-efficacy. The measures’ properties were tested using principal axis factoring in Study 1 and confirmatory factor analysis in Study 2. Furthermore, hierarchical regression analyses in Study 2 found that dispositional employability has distinctive relations with measures of career adaptability and job search self-efficacy. Our findings inform recommendations for higher education institutions to measure the psychosocial aspects of employability.

Authors:Rita Chiesa, Audrey Ansay Antonio, Dina Guglielmi, Marco Giovanni Mariani, Greta Mazzetti Pages: 36 - 45 Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 36-45, April 2024. The present study examined the career goal management strategies of Italian young adults. Based on the dual-process framework of goal management, assimilation and accommodation, which are considered adaptive personal resources, were hypothesized to be associated with young adults’ career goal engagement and career goal disengagement. Perceived employability and career adaptability were also hypothesized to play a mediating role in these associations. A two-time study was carried out among Italian university students (N = 294). The results confirmed that assimilation was positively associated with career goal engagement and perceived employability mediated this relationship. Additionally, assimilation was found to be negatively associated with career goal disengagement, whereas accommodation was positively associated with career goal disengagement. These findings have implications in career counseling and university programs related to young adults’ university-to-work transitions.

Authors:Remya Lathabhavan Pages: 46 - 56 Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 46-56, April 2024. The study examines the effects of work-from-home (WFH) on working mothers in India, characterized by a patriarchal mindset, during the COVID-19 pandemic. A survey involving 560 mothers from various sectors, all utilizing WFH due to pandemic measures, was conducted. A moderated mediated model was analyzed in the quantitative study using structural equation modeling. The results showed the absence of domestic help and family work guilt affected the job satisfaction of working mothers. The results showed that the overall dual-stage moderated mediation index from home demands (HDs) to job satisfaction via family–work conflict was significant. In addition, the first stage (HDs × absence of domestic help family–work conflict) and second stage (family–work conflict × family–work guilt job satisfaction) moderations were significant. This article also outlines the limitations of the current work and presents future scope for research.

Authors:Marina Milosheva, Peter Robertson, Peter Cruickshank, Hazel Hall Pages: 72 - 81 Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 72-81, April 2024. This study explores the career information-seeking behaviours of young people and career advisers. These are examined through the interrogation of a secondary data set held by Scotland's national skills agency, Skills Development Scotland. Descriptive and frequency analyses of engagement records from career conversations reveal three key characteristics of information seeking in career advisory settings: prompted information seeking; information seeking on young people's behalf and collaborative information seeking. The original contribution of this study lies in two novel research foci: (a) the identification of distinct patterns of career information-seeking behaviours and colloquial language which signifies that information seeking has taken place and (b) the consideration of young people and career advisers’ collaborative information seeking behaviours and their roles and functions within the career information-seeking process. These findings have implications for the improvement of career services and the development of career information, advice and guidance (CIAG) policies.

Student counselors and tutors guide students’ choices of study profiles (subjects) within Dutch secondary education. This study addressed three research questions: (1) According to counselors and tutors, what factors should inform students’ study profile choices' (2) Into what types can the views of counselors and tutors be classified' (3) According to counselors and tutors, which factors should secondary school students consider when choosing their study profiles in a forced-choice situation' Interviews held with 70 tutors and counselors identified students’ interests, abilities, and future-oriented considerations as most important (RQ1). Six types of views were identified in which one, two, or all of the above-mentioned factors were regarded the most important by the participants (RQ2). Responses to the forced-choice situations largely confirmed different perspectives on the factors: the majority of participants perceived students’ interests very important (RQ3).

Authors:Melissa Tham, Elizabeth Knight Pages: 95 - 104 Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 95-104, April 2024. Accessing high-quality career development to support successful transitions into post-compulsory education and employment can be a challenge for newly arrived students of refugee and migrant backgrounds. In Australia, not-for-profit organisations provide career guidance to students within schools that enrol refugee and migrant families. Through programs, not-for-profit organisations can provide mentoring, support and other career services. This research explores the marketing materials of organisation-provided career guidance programs based in Australian secondary schools. A close textual reading of how the programs engage with the discipline and practices of career guidance reveal a deficit framing of students and their families, with limited focus on promoting agency across programs. In light of the increasing resettlement of refugees and migrants in Australia, these findings highlight a need to balance social justice principles with greater engagement with the discipline of career education when enacting career interventions with vulnerable groups.

Authors:Dina Banerjee, Nazia Zabin Memon, Alka Sharma Pages: 105 - 115 Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 105-115, April 2024. “Dalits” are a historically marginalized caste group in India. In this study, we examine the impact that the institution of caste has on career change. Focusing on the shift from science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) to non-STEM careers, we ask why members of the Dalit communities in India leave their STEM careers. To present a comprehensive understanding of this career change, we also examine the factors that facilitate their retention in STEM careers. Deriving data from in-depth interviews with 42 STEM scholars from the Dalit communities in India, we illustrate their organizational experiences that are based on casteism. Qualitative data analyses were done using the grounded theory method. Results suggest that while caste operates in a unique way to drive away Dalit scholars from their STEM careers, doing gender plays an important role in their retention within the same careers.

Authors:Joanna Sikora Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Ahead of Print. While interest in career optimism has grown steadily in the last 15 years, most of its investigations rely on cross-sectional convenience samples that prevent exploring how earlier optimism matters for later educational and vocational outcomes. To address this issue, I use structural equation modelling to assess measurement invariance and the impact of career optimism at ages 20, 23 and 26 in a nationally representative sample of 2900 young Australians. A three-item measure of career optimism shows metric but not scalar invariance across young adulthood, meaning that while optimism's components remain the same, their levels fluctuate. Optimism helps young adults enrol in a university and enter professional employment by age 26. However, the positive impact of career optimism partly reflects the variation in youths’ socioeconomic backgrounds. Thus, future studies of career optimism should consider if some individuals tend to be more optimistic because they grew up in environments with more cultural and economic capital.

Authors:Riccardo Sartori, Francesco Tommasi, Fatima Abu Hamam, Andrea Ceschi Abstract: Australian Journal of Career Development, Ahead of Print. Students’ career decision is a relevant topic in career development with scholars and practitioners aiming at understanding which factors can contribute to students decision-making to support them in their career path. In this study, we argue that facilitating conditions can positively influence the career decisions of students. This relationship is mediated by career self-efficacy and moderated by optimism. To test our hypotheses, we conducted a longitudinal study. In total, 789 high school students from different educational streams took part in our three-way study. Results showed that career decision-making self-efficacy mediates the relationship between facilitating conditions for school motivations and career decision-making. While the direct effect of facilitating conditions for school motivations on career decidedness is negative, the relationship linking facilitating conditions for school motivations to career decision-making self-efficacy, as well as that linking career decision-making self-efficacy and career decidedness, is positive. These results provide insights for better-targeting counselling programmes. Citation: Australian Journal of Career Development PubDate: 2024-07-21T09:31:25Z DOI: 10.1177/10384162241263049
