Journal Title: Наука і освіта - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 4

Abstract

The issue of career self-determination of modern high school students is highly crucial at present when labour market is constantly developing thus increasing requirements for modern specialists training. Some young people do not have clear perspectives on life and feel insecure, unconfident. Other high school students choose careers which are of no demand at enterprises and that is why they work in the specialty they have no qualification for. The paper aims to study motives and factors influencing the process of career self-determination of modern high school students and specify effective methods of cultivating students’ conscious attitude towards making a future career choice. The school students were asked to do a survey using the questionnaire designed by authors. Besides, the respondents’ personal ability to make a career choice was deter- mined using techniques “What do I like?” (by L. Jovaiša) and “Career Map” by Ye. Klimov. The received results enable us to find out positive and negative factors which affect the process of career self-determination of modern high school students and to study what motivates students when they make their career choices. Basing on the research results it can be concluded that the most effective methods to cultivate career self-determination in high school students are trainings in particular the one called “Life map: to make one’s own career choice”.
