ABSTRACT

@#Introduction: In recent years, many unresolved issues pertaining to house officers in Malaysia have led to a longer waiting time and a ‘glut’ of medical graduates with a surprising 20% dropout amongst those who join the housemanship programme. This appears to reflect the changing times, mindsets and work expectations of millennials who comprise this cohort reflecting a need to consider possibilities of career shifts especially so in these uncertain times. This study explores the perceptions, awareness and interest in alternative career options amongst recent graduates and house officers. Materials and Methods: This was a study done between 2018 and 2019 using a questionnaire which was shared on various social platforms. Data analysis was done using Excel spreadsheet. Results: A total of 450 house officers and 657 medical graduates responded. Expectedly 66.8% claimed lifelong passion whilst another 12.1% claimed family influence as their reason to do medicine. Most were aware of their career challenges and 40% of them were keen to consider career change and reskilling indicating a possible shift from traditional expectations of a medical career. Conclusion: Whilst medicine is often considered a true calling, current challenges will require mental and emotional flexibility to explore other career opportunities. Thus, engagement programmes should be directed at medical graduates and house officers to identify and support those open to career transitions. This will help address current issues of internship bottleneck and rising dropout rates amongst internees. Early career change engagements will give them insight into their true career goals whilst opening up opportunities for those who wish to change.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo desse estudo foi analisar o poder preditivo da adaptabilidade de carreira na empregabilidade percebida, considerando o efeito mediador das respostas adaptativas nessa relação. Participaram da pesquisa 387 estudantes universitários. Para a coleta de dados foram utilizadas a Escala de Adaptabilidade de Carreira, a Escala de Desenvolvimento de Carreira de Estudantes Universitários e a Escala de Empregabilidade. Os resultados ressaltaram o poder preditivo da adaptabilidade de carreira na empregabilidade percebida e um efeito mediador parcial das respostas adaptativas nessa relação. A preocupação e identidade de carreira foram as dimensões da adaptabilidade e das respostas adaptativas mais significativas para predizer a empregabilidade. Por fim, são discutidas as implicações dos resultados na literatura vocacional, enfatizando a transição universidade-trabalho. Palavras-chave: adaptabilidade de carreira; empregabilidade; transição de carreira. (AU)


The objective of this study was to analyze the relationships established between career adaptability and perceived employability, considering the mediating effect of the adaptive responses in these relationships, in a sample of 387 university students. For data collection, we used the Career Adaptability Scale, the University Student Career Development Scale, and the Employability Scale. The results suggest positive and moderate associations between the constructs studied, besides a possible partial mediating effect of the adaptive responses in relation to the perceived employability. Additionally, the results indicate the prediction of career adaptability and adaptive responses in relation to perceived employability, especially in the career dimension and career identity. Finally, we discuss the implications of the results in the vocational literature, emphasizing the university-work transition. (AU)

ABSTRACT

Este estudo objetivou apresentar um levantamento da produção científica nacional sobre transição de carreira em adultos. Por meio das bases de dados Science Direct, SciELO e Periódico Capes, foram selecionados 10 artigos publicados no Brasil entre os anos 2000 e 2015. Os textos selecionados foram analisados segundo cinco aspectos: ano de publicação, desenho metodológico, amostra, objetivo e principais achados. Os artigos analisados abordam dois principais tipos de transição: da universidade-trabalho e mercado-mercado. Os resultados mostraram a importância do planejamento da carreira e do conhecimento do mercado de trabalho durante o processo de transição de carreira em adultos. Também indicaram que a transição é um momento de reflexão e de autoconhecimento que exige importantes tomadas de decisões. Por fim, apontaram a escassez de publicações sobre transições de carreira não planejadas, como demissões involuntárias.


This study presents a review of the Brazilian scientific literature regarding career transition among adults. We selected 10 articles published between the years 2000 and 2015 from the Science Direct, SciELO and Periódico Capes databases. The selected texts were analyzed according to five aspects: publication year, methodological design, sample, study objective and primary findings. The articles analyzed approached two main transitions: from university to the job market and inside the job market. The results showed the importance of career planning, as well as the knowledge of the labor market, during adults' career transition processes. Furthermore, the findings indicate that the transition is a time of reflection and self-knowledge, which requires making important decisions. Finally, the results point to the scarcity of publications on unplanned career transitions, such as involuntary dismissals.

ABSTRACT

Este estudo buscou investigar o contexto e a idade de início e final de carreira das mulheres atletas olímpicas brasileiras, bem como a razão do encerramento da carreira. Para tanto, participaram da amostra 444 mulheres brasileiras participantes de Jogos Olímpicos até Londres em 2012. Dos relatos de vida, foram retirados dados relacionados aos objetivos deste estudo. Os resultados nos permitem inferir que, em modalidades como natação, ginástica e tênis, o início foi muito precoce, já nos esportes coletivos a idade de início corresponde à fase escolar, quando neste momento o profissional de Educação Física é o principal responsável pela iniciação ao rendimento. Esportes como tiro, arco, boxe e levantamento de peso têm seu início já no final da adolescência. Com relação ao final de carreira, a faixa etária de aposentadoria corresponde à modalidade, e naqueles esportes em que se começa cedo, as idades de aposentadoria são menores. Observou-se também que os motivos principais para a finalização da carreira são: número de lesões, fadiga e cansaço, percepção de que a idade estava atrapalhando, maternidade e casamento e a necessidade de continuar os estudos. Outro fato abordado foi a exclusão da atleta pela comissão técnica, o que foi determinante para que a atleta não quisesse mais fazer parte daquele meio. A escolha de uma nova profissão e outro fator importante e que nos apresenta um panorama diferenciado para as atletas olímpicas, já que 50% destas se formaram e hoje, a grande maioria (65%) trabalham na área esportiva. Pode-se concluir que cada modalidade tem o momento ideal de início e que as atletas olímpicas não saíram deste padrão. Quanto ao término da carreira, este pode não ser compulsório (lesões, cansaço e fadiga, dispensas da equipe, maternidade, casamento) ou programado (formação acadêmica e profissional, necessidade de novas metas)....(AU)


The purpose of this study was to investigate the context of Brazilian women athletes, specifically the age at which they began and ended their careers, the reason for ending their careers and surrounding factors. For that, the sample was attended by 444 Brazilian women participating in the Olympic Games until London in 2012. Data related to the objectives of this study were collected from self-reports from the athletes. The results showed that in modalities such as swimming, gymnastics and tennis, the starting age for athletes was very young. In collective sports, the starting age corresponded to the age of schooling, wherein Physical Education is responsible for the initiation to the sport. Sports such as shooting, archery, boxing and weight lifting have their beginning as early as the end of adolescence. The age of retirement was found to correspond with the modality, whereby those sports that are begun at an early age were found to be associated with earlier retirement ages. It was also noted that the main reasons for career completion are: multiple injuries, fatigue, distress caused by self-perception of old age, maternity and marriage, and the continuation of studies. Another factor addressed was the exclusion of an athlete by a technical committee, acting as a driving force for the athlete to no longer want to be part of the sport environment. Following departure from a sport, the choice of a new profession is another important factor that presents us with a view of the Olympic athletes, since 50% of retired athletes went on to complete undergraduate degrees and the vast majority (605) went on to work in sport. It can be concluded that each modality has an ideal age at which to begin the sport and the Olympic athletes adhered to this standard. As for the end of the careers, the age of completion cannot be programmed in some cases (e.g. due to injuries, fatigue, team layoffs, maternity, marriage) and can be programmed in other cases (academic and professional training, need for new goals)....(AU)
