Abstract

Individuals’ subjective view of career success varies considerably and will not always align with the goals of employers or policy makers. This paper presents the initial findings of research designed to investigate the subjective perceptions of career success among a sample of younger New Zealanders who were interviewed as part of the Pathways to Sustainable Employment Project in the Labour Market Dynamics Research Programme funded by the Foundations for Research Science and Technology. Implications for public policy and career development strategies within employing organizations are highlighted.
