Despite substantial growth in the population of Hispanics in the United States, there has been little research associated with their career behavior and experiences. The purpose of this study was to investigate the degree to which there are differentially reported career strategies, career expectations, and perceivedfairness of treatment by Hispanic graduates of colleges of business in early stages of their careers. A secondary purpose of the study was to investigate the extent to which identification with the Hispanic culture is associated with differences in these same career-related issues. Results provide little evidence of differential use of career strategies or lower career expectations by Hispanics when compared with non-Hispanic whites. There is also little evidence of differential results as a function of the degree of identification with the culture. A substantial proportion of the Hispanic sample reported discrimination due to ethnic background, and a substantial number of females (both Hispanic and non-Hispanic) reported sexbased discrimination. These results are analyzed in terms of their impact on career prospects for Hispanics
