15、慮擇業(yè)規(guī)劃的不同方面。進行擇業(yè)規(guī)劃，要收集有關(guān)我們自身以及職業(yè)的信息資料，估計采取各種舉動可能出現(xiàn)的結(jié)果，最后作出我們認為有吸引力并且可行的選擇。2許多觀察家指出學(xué)生在擇業(yè)規(guī)劃方面不是很在行。他們列出了以下事實：1）大部分學(xué)生選擇職業(yè)的范圍很窄；2）多達40％至60％的學(xué)生選擇專業(yè)性的職業(yè)，而實際上只有15％至18％的從業(yè)人員在做專業(yè)性的工作；3）男青年對文書、銷售以及服務(wù)性行業(yè)興趣索然，盡管這些領(lǐng)域會提供許多就業(yè)機會；4）多達三分之一
