Litvinova. [Multivariate Career: Prospects for Study]

Abstract:
The article analyzes different approaches to study of models of constructing the employment career in current environment. The changes having taken place in inter-relationsbetween employees and organizations over recent 15 years led to changes in their mutual expectations including the ones concerning the career development. Boundaryless career based on career mobility and protean career based on subjective understanding of career success are regarded as alternatives to traditional careers. The main attributes of "new careers" are: an increased independence in employee-organization dyads, low level of mutual obligations, freedom of choice, self-actualization, priority of career loyalty and self-management in contrast to organization loyalty. Changes in career conceptualizing inevitably led to revision of career competences.
