This article examines the effects of institutional and interpersonal influences upon career plans among Israeli youth. The Israeli system of education activates a series of institutionalized controls to promote centralized public policies with regard to educational and occupational opportunities. Hence, individual goals and plans for future careers are severely constrained by formal mechanisms such as an early separation of more promising students from less able ones, differential training of various classes of students through distinctive types of high schools and the granting of official credentials in the form of various diplomas and licenses. Such institutional arrangements are one form of a sponsored mobility system within which the role of informal, interpersonal influences on kvels of career aspiration is rather limited, particularly in later stages of the educational process. Empirical findings obtained in Israel support this thesis. A comparative analysis which draws upon American studies points to some cross-cultural implications for further research
