As the idea of personal choice and self direction picks up in
the 21st century, aided by the power of the Internet and the increased
acceptance of people having multiple kinds of work, the idea of
a career is shifting from a closed set of achievements, like a
chronological résumé of past jobs, to a defined
set of pursuits looking forward. In its broadest sense, career
refers to an individual’s work and life roles over their
lifespan.
Career counseling advisors assess people's
interests, personality, values and skills, and also help them
explore career options and research graduate and professional
schools. Career counseling provides one-on-one or group professional
assistance in exploration and decision making tasks related
to choosing a major/occupation, transitioning into the world
of work or further professional training. The field is vast
and includes career placement, career planning, learning strategies
and student development.
