Key terms

Career project.
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 developments that are as inherently unpredictable as most of the career projects are.
