Career Search Self-Efficacy: Ripe for Applications and Intervention Programming

Abstract

Career search self-efficacy has been found to be predictive of individuals' level of career indecision (Taylor & Pompa, 1990) as well as the number of career search activities they actually perform (Solberg et al., in press). This article described the four sources of efficacy information and noted how application of these sources could help individuals become more successful in the career search process. Interventions designed to promote the development of career search self-efficacy are clearly needed. Two instruments for assessing the effectiveness of career search self-efficacy programs are described. Career counselors are urged to incorporate sources of efficacy into their learning experiences to facilitate enhancement of career search selfefficacy, especially with individuals who are at-risk for career search difficulty.
