Theories of Career Development

Two theories are:

Though people in different sectors differ in their abilities, personalities, needs, values, interests, traits and self-concepts. People are qualified in these characteristics, which makes them suitable for the different occupation. Each occupation requires such characteristics including the different pattern of abilities and personality traits.

The main disciplines in the theory of career development are such followed as:

• Differential Psychology:  It mainly stands for the different types of work and occupation for the people with different pattern ability and characteristics accordingly.
• Personality:  It defines a person’s ability and experience for the career development which plays a vital role in the sector.
• Sociology: The factor of movement of production from a type of productive activity to another type of productive activity is termed as occupational mobility. It explains the movement of resources between jobs. The factors which exist highly mobile and can be easily swapped including some factors which are highly immovable and are not easily able to be swapped.

Psychology Theory

It is a scientific study of human beings changing over their course of life span. It is mainly associated with the infants and children but the department has also expanded to include youth, adult, aging and the complete life span. The field of Development Psychology mainly examines the physical development, cognitive development and socio-emotional development. It also examines the influences of nature and nurture on the procedure of human growth. 

Analysis of Opportunities for Career Development 

Careers come to people of all shapes and sizes, also locally, regionally and globally. There are lots of employers or sources for employment in and around locally such as Local Government Jobs, Volunteering Opportunities, Nursing Opportunities.  

Same goes for the regional jobs such as Regional managers in different sectors such as Retail, Healthcare which also includes Regional Service Engineer in different parts of the region.

I believe that Global Opportunities are increasing all over. According to the interest and ambitions, there are lots of global opportunities in different universities for pursuing different types of education or generating skills for career development. There are also different sectors apart from these universities which are processed through a global recruitment process. Such opportunities include Global Security strategy, International editor, Media Executive, Global Partnership associate, RM Business Analyst for Global Financing Services, Global benefits Consultants, Global HR Ops and Systems Lead, Event manager etc.

These are the various opportunities which are available throughout locally, regionally as well as globally and will help in shaping my career. These opportunities vary from person to person according to the ability and pattern of the work. These opportunities helps in career development for both the employee and the employer from local and as well as abroad. These sources for opportunities are available throughout the digital media and such sources play a vital role in the development of the economy in terms of career.
