Module in Personality Development
First Semester- 2nd Quarter Week 5
 A career is defined as the combination and sequence of roles played by a
person during the course of a lifetime (Super, 1980). Your career basically
dictates a lot of things in your life – it can determine the kind of lifestyle that
you will be leading, the quality of relationships that you have with people
around you like your family and friends, the kind of balance you will be able to
keep with your life and your responsibilities. There are two other concepts that
we often associate with the concept of career. One is a job. A job is a position
an individual holds doing specific duties. Another term is occupation. An
occupation is defined as the similar work for which people have similar
responsibilities and for which they develop a common set of skills and
knowledge.

Factors Affecting the Career Choice:

Choosing the right career and profession is not an easy task, you have a
lot of things to take into consideration. Because of its importance, there are
professionals that focuses on helping individuals to assess and evaluate their
skills and capabilities suited for a certain career. Thus, the concept of career
development, or the process of managing life, learning and work over the
lifespan.

Skills and Abilities – These Trait and Factor Theory recommend creating
occupational profiles for specific jobs as well as identifying individual
differences, matching individuals to occupations based on these differences. An
individual will perform best if they work within their abilities and capabilities.

Interest and Personality Type – Holland's Career Typology is a widely used to

connect personality types and career fields. This theory establishes a
classification system that matches personality characteristics and personal
preferences to job characteristics.

Life Roles – Super's Lifespan theory directly addresses the fact that we each
play multiple roles in our lives and that these roles change over the course of
our lives. How we think about ourselves in these roles, their requirements of
them, and the external forces that affect them, may influence how we look at
careers in general and how we make choices for ourselves.

Previous Experiences – Krumboltz’s Social Learning and Planned

Happenstance theories address factors related to our experiences with others
and in previous work situations. Having positive experiences and role models
working in specificA

careers may influence the set of careers we consider as options for ourselves.

Culture –Our culture often shapes our values and expectations as they relate
to many parts of our lives, including jobs and careers.

Gender -– Gender is a factor included in multiple career development theories

and approaches including, Social Learning and multicultural career
counseling. How we view ourselves as individuals may influence both the
opportunities and barriers we perceive as we make career decisions.

First Semester- 2nd Quarter Week 5
Social and Economic Conditions – Events that take place in our lives may
affect the choices available to us and even dictate our choices to a certain
degree. Changes in the economy and resulting job market may also affect how
our careers develop.

Childhood Fantasies – What do you want to be when you grow-up? You may
remember this question from your childhood, and it may have helped shape
how you thought about careers then, as well as later in life.

Work with your career counselor!

If you are still having doubts and worries about the career that you
wanted to take you can talk it out with your teachers, parents, and
professionals like counselor. It is important to understand that career choice is
not made based on any one factor. Our choices are subject to many influences
– individual, cultural, social, and environmental. The combination and
interaction of various influences on your decision-making are unique to you
and your situation. There may also be multiple options, several "good-fits" for
you, instead of a single, right choice.

ACTIVITIES

Activity 1.2: Holland’s Theory of Career Choice

Your interest and personality are some the factors that will greatly
influence your decision in choosing the career that you will take and eventually
will utilize to make a living. In line of this, the most widely theory used to
connect interest and career is the Holland’s Theory of career Choice.

John Holland theory’s core idea is that most people resemble a

combination of six personality types: Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social,
Enterprising, and Conventional (commonly abbreviated with the acronym
RIASEC). Each type is characterized by a constellation of interests, preferred
activities, beliefs, abilities, values, and characteristics. People working in the
environment they preferred and with people of the same interest will eventually
work effectively and efficient.
The figures beside show the Holland
Personality Code, and

1. Every individual is inclined towards

one trait, with two supporting traits.

2. The combination of these three core

areas is your Holland Code.

3. Identifying your Holland

Code can help you find
a career aligns with
your interests, values,
and skills. https://careercenter.education.wisc.edu/career-
exploration/holland-personality-code/
To help you to identify your personality type and the careers that suited to you,
answer the RIASEC test:
