Mathews, Lakeisha M.
ProQuest LLC, Ed.D. Dissertation, Wilmington University (Delaware)
This study examined proactive career behavior among college students engaging in career interventions. Specifically, the impact of proactive career behavior on career readiness and career goal attainment was investigated. The study sought to discover what proactive career behaviors are displayed by students who engage in career interventions. The study also sought to investigate if a higher degree of career engagement correlated with students' perceptions of career interventions, their impact on career readiness and career goal attainment, and satisfaction with services. In addition, the study describes career development constructs that intersect with career engagement such as personality, goal setting, and self-efficacy and provides an historical overview of career services and its role in higher education. The results of the study demonstrate that students perceive career interventions impact their career readiness and career goal attainment.
