Introduction
As an individual’s career is influenced by various career principles and theories,
including career theories, life stages, career anchors, and career patterns, it is
important to apply these concepts to one’s own life and career. In this discussion, I will
reflect on how I have applied, or would apply, these career principles to my own career,
taking into consideration the information provided on career principles, life stages,
career anchors, and career patterns. I will also provide insights into how these
principles have shaped my career decisions and how they can continue to guide my
career in the future.
Career Principles
The career principles outlined by Arvey and Renz (1992) emphasize the importance
of fairness in the selection process and the ethical conduct of organizations in
recruiting and promoting their employees. These principles include objectivity,
consistency, freedom from manipulation, confidentiality, and protection of candidate
rights, among others. In my own career, I have always sought out organizations that
adhere to these principles, as I believe that a fair and transparent selection process
ensures that employees are chosen based on their qualifications and merit. This has
influenced my decision-making in selecting job opportunities and has helped me to
establish a strong and ethical foundation for my career.
Life Stages
Super’s theory of career development and life stages provides valuable insight into the
stages of career development from childhood to old age. Super (1990, 1992) defines
five life stages, including growth, exploration, establishment, maintenance, and
decline. Each of these stages is associated with typical behaviors and developmental
tasks that influence an individual’s adjustment in that particular stage. Reflecting on
these life stages, I can recognize how they have influenced my career decisions and
aspirations.
