The Core

Although undergraduate students value preparing themselves for careers that have personal meaning, relatively little curricular attention has been paid to facilitating this goal. In this article, we present a targeted review of the literature on career exploration as a basis for an approach to integrate it into the core undergraduate organizational behavior course offered at most business schools. The approach consists of four components, each consisting of activities that provide opportunities for career exploration. The goal of this approach is to develop a higher level of career adaptability in students, improving their ability to manage career changes and challenges.

The Relationship

Given the increased self-directedness of todays’ career environment, career goals represent to some extent the exercise of individual agency, particularly during ecological transitions (e.g., school to work). The main purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between internship quality and career exploration behavior, considering students’ career goals content (labor market vs. higher education). Using a longitudinal design (pre- and post-internship), we conducted a study (12th grade; N = 191) that explores the relationship between perceived qualities of the internship and the different dimensions of career exploration. Analysis of variance and analysis of covariance, with repeated measures, were used to analyze the data. The results reinforce the importance of career goals, since they seem to have a differentiating effect on how the quality of the internship interacts with students’ career exploration behavior. Finally, the implications of these findings for career interventions and for future research in this area are discussed.
