Revision as of 02:22, 30 January 2019

Introduction to Careers (hereinafter, the Lecture) is a lecture introducing the learners to career administration and related topics. The Lecture is the fourth of eight lectures of WorldOpp Orientation (hereinafter, the Orientation).


Outline

Introduction to Recruitment is the predecessor lecture.

Career Essentials

Main wikipage: Career Essentials; video (3:44)
Career. An occupation undertaken for a significant period of a person's life and with opportunities for progress.
Career administration. A set of endeavors undertaken in order to administer one's career.

Career Projects

Main wikipage: Career Projects; video (7:33)
Project. One or more enterprise efforts undertaken to create a unique deliverable, functional features of which are identified or can be identified before the efforts start. Any project can be viewed as a set of processes.
  • Career waterfall. A sequential process where progress is seen as flowing steadily downwards through the phases. These phases may vary, but often consist of (a) discovering one's vocation, (b) suggesting one's target industry and/or occupation, (c) identifying work-related competence needed for a particular position, (d) development of one's KSAs, (e) development one's employment credentials, (f) job search, (g) adjustments to the job market, and/or (h) landing one's job in the target occupation and/or target industry.
  • Agile methodology. The project administration approach of developing the deliverable in frequent iterations based on the requirements that evolve based on the results of previous iterations. The Agile methodology is characterized by frequent reassessment and adaptation of initial objectives. Instead of once-defined projects in the Waterfall model, the Agile methodology encourages continuous re-definition based on continuous feedback. This feature makes the Agile methodology instrumental in those development that are as inherently unpredictable as most of career projects are.

Job Search Map

Main wikipage: Job Search Map; video (4:23)
Agile job-search map. A model that describes the process of landing one's employment that rationally carries out best option valuation and maximizes the outcomes from the employment.

Employment Credentials

Main wikipage: Employment Credentials; video (10:00)
Employment credential. (1) A qualification, achievement, personal quality, or aspect of a person's background used to indicate that this person is suitable for particular employment; (2) A document that ascertains that qualification, achievement, personal quality, or aspect.
Third-party credential. A credential issued by a third party.
  • Employment authorization. A government authorization of someone's eligibility to be employed. An employment authorization document is usually called a work permit.
  • Criminal record. A list of a person's previous criminal convictions and, sometimes, pending charges.
  • Security clearance. In the United States, an official determination that an individual may access information classified by the United States Federal Government. Security clearances are hierarchical; each level grants the holder access to information in that level and the levels below it.
  • Drug test. A technical analysis of a biological specimen, for example urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, and/or oral fluid/saliva used to determine the presence or absence of specified parent drugs or their metabolites.
Professional credential. An employment credential that specifically refers to one's professional capacity.

Directories of Credentials

Main wikipage: Directories of Credentials; video (0:00)
Directory of credentials. A document that lists one's credentials, most commonly, applicable to a particular employment and is usually designed to help the reader, such as a recruiter, hiring manager, customer, or any other targeted stakeholder, of the directory to navigate them.
Professional portfolio. An organized presentation of those individual's credentials that demonstrate his or her professional achievements and capacities. The portfolios may contain educational credentials, work samples, and other employment credentials offered by a professional and/or employment candidate especially when considered for being hired.

Workforce Service Providers

Main wikipage: Workforce Service Providers; video (9:16)
Workforce service provider. Any provider of workforce services.
