Career confusion in the 21st century: challenges and opportunities
Confusão de carreira no século 21: desafios e oportunidades
[1] The time and energy that
teenagers dedicate to learning and the fields of study they choose
profoundly shape the opportunities they will have during their whole lives.
O tempo e a energia que os adolescentes dedicam à aprendizagem e as áreas de estudo que escolhem moldam profundamente as oportunidades que terão durante toda a vida.
Their dreams and aspirations do not just depend on their talents, but they can
be highly influenced by their personal background as well as by the depth and
extent their knowledge about the world of work.
Os seus sonhos e aspirações não dependem apenas dos seus talentos, mas podem ser altamente influenciados pela sua formação pessoal, bem como pela profundidade e extensão do seu conhecimento sobre o mundo do trabalho.
In summary, students cannot be
what they cannot see.
Em resumo, os alunos não podem ser o que não podem ver.
[2] With young people staying in
education longer than ever and the labour market automating with unprecedented
speed, students need help to make sense of the world of work.
Com os jovens permanecendo na educação por mais tempo do que nunca e o mercado de trabalho automatizando-se, a uma velocidade sem precedentes,(nunca acontecido antes), os estudantes precisam de ajuda para compreender o mundo do trabalho.


In 2018, the OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), the world's largest dataset on young people's educational of 30, experiences, collected first-of-its kind data on this, making it possible to explore how much the career dreams of young people have changed over the past 20 years, how closely they are related to actual labour demand, and how closely aspirations are shaped by social background and gender.
Em 2018, o Programa Internacional de Avaliação de Estudantes (PISA) da OCDE, o maior conjunto de dados do mundo sobre as experiências educacionais de jovens de 30 anos, coletou dados inéditos sobre este assunto, tornando possível explorar o quanto a carreira sonha dos jovens. as pessoas mudaram ao longo dos últimos 20 anos, até que ponto estão relacionadas com a procura real de trabalho e até que ponto as aspirações são moldadas pela origem social e pelo gênero.
[3] Studies in Australia, the United
Kingdom and the United States show that teenagers who combine part-time employment with full-time
education do better in their school-to-work transitions.
Estudos realizados na Austrália, no Reino Unido e nos Estados Unidos mostram que os adolescentes que combinam o emprego com regime parcial (= meio período) com a educação tempo integral têm melhores resultados nas transições da escola para o trabalho.
The positive benefits
include lower probabilities of being unemployed or NEET (Not in Education,
Employment or Training), higher wages, and others (see Box 1).
Os benefícios positivos incluem probabilidades mais baixas de estar desempregado ou NEET (Não Está na Educação, Emprego ou Formação), salários mais elevados e outros (ver Caixa 1).
However, the
benefits cannot be taken for granted and some experiences in different
countries have demonstrated that governments and schools can better support
young people as they prepare themselves for working life.
Contudo, os benefícios não podem ser tomados como garantido e algumas experiências em diferentes países demonstraram que os governos e as escolas podem apoiar melhor os jovens à medida que se preparam para a vida profissional.
[4] Schools may provide programmes
of career development activities, particularly those that include workplace
experience.
As escolas podem oferecer programas de atividades de desenvolvimento de carreira, especialmente aqueles que incluem experiência no local de trabalho.
Experience of the world of challenges young people to understand
what it means to be personally effective in different workplaces while providing
a unique opportunity to develop social networks of value.
A experiência do mundo desafia os jovens a compreender o que significa ser pessoalmente eficaz em diferentes locais de trabalho, ao mesmo tempo que proporciona uma oportunidade única para desenvolver redes sociais de valor.
Through exposure to
the people who do different jobs, young people have the chance to challenge
gender and class-based stereotyping and expand their aspirations, easing
ultimate entry into the labour market (see Box 2).
Através da exposição a pessoas que desempenham diferentes empregos, os jovens têm a oportunidade de desafiar os estereótipos de gênero e de classe e expandir as suas aspirações, facilitando a entrada final no mercado de trabalho (ver Caixa 2).
[5] However, in recent years,
analyses of career preparation have focused on the challenge of misalignment:
where the educational plans of young people are out of kilter with their
occupational expectations.
No entanto, nos últimos anos, as análises da preparação para a carreira centraram-se no desafio do desalinhamento: onde os planos educativos dos jovens estão fora de sintonia com as suas expectativas profissionais.
When young people underestimate the education
required to fulfil their dreams, they can expect to find their early working
lives more difficult than would be expected.
Quando os jovens subestimam a educação necessária para realizar os seus sonhos, eles podem esperar que o início da sua vida profissional seja mais difícil do que seria de esperar.
Of particular concern is that most
young people whose aspirations are misaligned with their education come from
disadvantaged backgrounds.
É particularmente preocupante que a maioria dos jovens cujas aspirações estão desalinhadas com a sua educação, provêm de meios desfavorecidos.
Consequently, it is now clear that career guidance
serves an important service in dealing with inequalities.
Consequentemente, é agora claro que a orientação profissional presta um serviço importante no tratamento das desigualdades.
[6] Results from PISA show that the
career aspirations of young people are no simple reflection of teenage academic
ability.
Os resultados do PISA mostram que as aspirações profissionais dos jovens não são um simples reflexo da capacidade acadêmica dos adolescentes.
Rather, they reflect complex lives.
Em vez disso, refletem vidas complexas.
Analyses show that the children of
more advantaged families are more likely to want to go on to university than working
class kids.
As análises mostram que as crianças de famílias mais favorecidas têm maior probabilidade de querer ir para a universidade do que as crianças da classe trabalhadora.
Similarly, career thinking is often determined by gender and
immigrant background as well as socioeconomic status.
Da mesma forma, o pensamento profissional é muitas vezes determinado pelo gênero e pela origem imigrante, bem como pelo estatos socioeconômico.
Disadvantaged young
people are at clear risk of career confusion. It is neither fair, nor
efficient, for students to move through education with limited views of both
the amplitude of the labour market and their own potential.
Os jovens desfavorecidos correm um claro risco de confusão profissional. Não é justo nem eficiente que os estudantes progridam no ensino com uma visão limitada da amplitude do mercado de trabalho e do seu próprio potencial.
Box 1 - The
positive effects of teenage part-time employment
Os efeitos positivos do emprego a tempo parcial entre adolescentes
[7] Studies in Australia, the United
Kingdom and of the United States commonly show that teenagers who combine
full-time study with part-time work can expect to do better in the adult job
market than would be expected, given their backgrounds and academic
qualifications.
Estudos realizados na Austrália, no Reino Unido e nos Estados Unidos mostram geralmente que os adolescentes que combinam o estudo a tempo inteiro com o trabalho a tempo parcial podem esperar ter um desempenho melhor no mercado de trabalho adulto do que seria esperado, dadas as suas origens e qualificações acadêmicas.
Studies that follow them from childhood to adulthood have routinely
found evidence of higher earnings and fewer periods of unemployment.
Estudos que os acompanham desde a infância até à idade adulta têm encontrado rotineiramente evidências de rendimentos mais elevados e menos períodos de desemprego.
In an
American study which follows young people born in the mid-1970s up to the age the
researchers find a positive relationship between working part time at age 14
and 15 and a subjective sense of job realization in adulthood.
Num estudo americano que acompanha jovens nascidos em meados da década de 1970 até à idade adulta, os investigadores encontram uma relação positiva entre trabalhar a tempo parcial aos 14 e 15 anos e uma sensação subjetiva de realização profissional na idade adulta.
Teenage students
who worked were far more likely to agree at age 30 that they were working in a
job that they wanted.
Os estudantes adolescentes que trabalhavam eram muito mais propensos a concordar, aos 30 anos, que estavam trabalhando no emprego que desejavam.
However, the exact relationship between working when a
teenager and later economic success is not well understood, and the phenomenon
may have some disadvantages: students working excessive hours perform worse in
final examinations than would otherwise be expected.
Contudo, a relação exacta entre trabalhar na adolescência e o sucesso económico posterior não é bem compreendida, e o fenômeno pode ter algumas desvantagens: os estudantes que trabalham horas excessivas têm um desempenho pior nos exames finais do que seria esperado.
Box2 - The
long-term impacts of career talks
Os impactos a longo prazo das negociações de carreira
[8] Another study, based on
teenagers who, as 16-year- olds, had taken part in a career talk with
someone from outside of school, finds
that taking part in career talks is associated with significantly better
earnings at age 26.
Outro estudo, baseado em adolescentes que, aos 16 anos, participaram numa conversa sobre carreira com alguém de fora da escola, concluiu que a participação em conversas sobre carreira está associada a rendimentos significativamente melhores aos 26 anos.
The wage premium was found to be at its greatest where students
took part in more than five career talks at age 14-15, rather than at 15-16,
and when they agreed at the time that they had been very helpful.
Descobriu-se que o prêmio salarial era mais elevado quando os estudantes participaram em mais de cinco palestras sobre carreiras entre os 14 e os 15 anos de idade, em vez de entre os 15 e os 16 anos, e quando concordaram na altura que tinham sido muito úteis.
