This theory is about career decision marketing and development based on social learning. Career decisions are the product of an uncountable number of learning experiences made possible by encounters with the people, institutions and events in a person’s particular environment. Krumboltz propose that people choose their careers based on what they have learned. The four main factors that influence career choice are genetics influences, environmental conditions and events, learning experiences and task approach skills. Genetic influences are inherited rather than learned such as physical appearance.

Albert Bandura recognised the theory of self-efficacy to provide a lecture on how an individual identifies his ability to perform a task within a particular context. However, many workers struggle in the workplace because they do not consider that they have the ability to perform their obligations successfully. Therefore, the study searches to research into how self-efficacy affects employees’ performance in the workplace. Talkdesk (in Bandura, 1977) and other studies have found that, a person’s self-efficacy plays a main role in how goals, tasks, and trials are approached. Self-efficacy is referred to as an individual’s self-belief in his ability to accomplish particular tasks and it has been related with workplace performance, the experience of stress, burnout, and role adjustments.
Academic self-efficacy Bandura (1982b, 1997) places great emphasis on self-efficacy as a specific rather than a general concept. In this view, self-efficacy represents a dynamic, multifaceted belief system that operates selectively across different activity domains and under different situational demands, rather than being a decontextualized conglomerate (Bandura, 1997, p.42). Researchers have explored the utility of Bandura’s (1977, 1997) theory of self efficacy in a wide range of settings for understanding behavior for over 20 years. Self efficacy is essentially an individual’s belief in his or her ability to perform a specific task or behavior. Bandura (1997) emphasized that self-efficacy is not a general quality possessed by individuals,
Theoretical assumptions: People used to see career counselling as making a decision in regard to which career path to follow after having one or two meetings with a career counsellor (Krumboltz, Foley & Cotter, 2013). According to Hall (2004) this few has changed over the past two decades and it is clear that career development is not a onetime choice but rather a lifelong process. Savickas (2012) argues that the form of career intervention must change just like the form of work changes to reflect the labor needs of the twenty-first century. Krumboltz, Foley and Cotter (2013) argues that clients must create more satisfying lives for themselves with the help of counsellors. A model of career counselling, the happenstance learning theory, helps
Career development is widely discussed topic in both academic and popular literature, as it plays an important role in individual’s life. Yet, most of the literature that has been written on this topic usually does not have specific focus on the events that can have significant impact on a career development. However, in the last decade scope of research swifted towards events that influences someone’s career, as academics discovered how impactful these changes can be. It is in fact supported by many researchers that unplanned events have influence on someone’s career (Hirschi, 2013). However, even though recently more research is conducted about events that influence the career of an individual, there is still a lack of focus on the underlying

Generalized self-efficacy The basic premise of self-efficacy theory is that “people’s beliefs in their capabilities to produce desired effects by their own actions” (Bandura, 1997, p. vii). In recent years, was developed an adaptation of self-efficacy called general self-efficacy (GSE) that has become an issue of contention among researchers and several criticisms were raised (e.g., Bandura, 1997), GSE is “individuals’ perception of their ability to perform across a variety of different situations” (Judge, Erez, & Bono, 1998, p. 170). General self-efficacy is the belief that one can perform a novel or difficult tasks, or cope with adversity in various domains of human functioning. Regarding job satisfaction, Judge et al.
