Setting Sails for Your Harbor
INTRODUCTION: A successful transition from school to further employment, education, or training is central to avoiding early unemployment with its dire consequences for young people and society. Yet, some youths struggle with this transition and fall into a NEET-status, "not in employment, education, or training." By studying the temporal dynamics of such NEETs' career related self-efficacy and career decidedness across four waves, the current st…
Withdrawing from job search
Older job seekers dropping out of the active workforce is a major challenge for individuals, organizations, and society, resulting in the need to protect and extend their working lives. Based on the discouraged workers approach, this study used career construction theory to study how past experiences can discourage older job seekers and make them withdraw from the job search. Specifically, we explored how age discrimination is connected to lower …

Job Search and (Re)employment From a Lifespan Development Perspective
Even though empirical research and unemployment statistics reveal that older workers face longer unemployment periods compared to younger or middle-aged workers, the job search process among older workers is not well understood. In addressing this knowledge gap, the present paper presents a conceptual model of job search and (re)employment from a lifespan development perspective. The conceptual model emphasizes the importance of aging as an overa…

Multidisciplinary in nature, the 31 chapters in this handbook offer insights into the diverse theoretical and methodological perspectives from which job loss and job search have been studied, such as psychology, sociology, labor studies, and economics. Dis…
Job Search and the School-to-Work Transition
The school-to-work transition (STWT) is a major life event for those who must leave behind their lives as full-time students and begin new lives as a full-time employees. Although much has been written about the STWT, the role and importance of job search has often been neglected. At the same time, research on job search has tended to treat the job-search process as an independent and isolated activity. In this chapter, I describe an integrated m…
Training career adaptability to facilitate a successful school-to-work transition
Coping with economic stress
This special issue presents five papers, four empirical and one conceptual, on how people deal with different forms and stages of economic stress. Three manuscripts address coping with job insecurity in one's regular job or in the context of self‐employment. These papers focus on the multidimensional nature and the development of insecurity over time, personal and social resources, along with organizational interventions that are helpful in minim…
