This chapter begins with a review of the effectiveness of career interventions and continues with a discussion of critical ingredients of career interventions, factors contributing to intervention effectiveness, and the use of theory in designing career interventions. Cognitive information processing theory is presented in more detail given the theory's intentional linkage between career choice and career interventions and the theory's explicit linkage to the critical elements in career interventions. Several meta-analyses have been conducted that highlight the effectiveness of career interventions. Life design counseling (LDC) is the practical application of career construction theory, with the goal of helping individuals reconstruct their career narratives through connecting life themes to possible career paths. The career-development assessment and counseling model, LDC, and the prescreening, in-depth exploration, and choice model are also reviewed in terms of their linkage between concepts of career choice and career intervention.
