| This symposium aims to introduce innovative ways to understand and study the 21st century school-to-work transition (STWT). Despite ample research on antecedents and outcomes of the STWT, very little is known about the interplay between micro- level and macro-level factors in achieving a successful transition from school to work. Research on the STWT has thus far been fragmented, most notably in terms of a division between micro-level and macro- level oriented research, and a lack of integration of these perspectives hurts the overall understanding of the contemporary STWT. In line with recent calls for re-contextualizing careers research, we aim to encourage the extension and integration of knowledge pertaining to the contemporary STWT by integrating existing perspectives that have mostly been isolated from each other thus far. To this end, in this symposium we present six papers that focus on how young adults can best prepare for the STWT in which we take into account both micro-level factors (e.g., work orientation, job search behavior, and career competencies) and macro-level factors (e.g., degree subject, perceived organizational support, student loan depth, organizational socialization and career shocks). |
