Description
Summary:Careerography, which is the intensive examination of the work experiences and career life course of an individual of historical or present significance through a vocational theoretical lens, has several important applications for psychologists. The present article provides a brief overview of careerography in the context of the more established field of psychobiography. The utility of careerography for career counseling practice, research, and training is outlined, and specific examples of how careerography can be integrated into graduate-level curricula, research; and clinical experiences are then highlighted. Finally, careerography is introduced as a promising career education tool that increases underrepresented and marginalized youths’ access to diverse career role models.
