Answer to Question 1

Vocational maturity is the degree of congruence between people's occupational behavior and what is expected of them at different ages. The implementation task begins in the early twenties, when people take a series of temporary jobs to learn firsthand about work roles and to try out possible career choices. One example of this would be the person interested in business at the age of 20 taking a summer internship at company to gain experience. The stabilization task begins in mid-twenties with selecting a specific occupation during young adulthood. It continues until the mid-thirties as the person confirms the occupational choice that was made. One example of this would be the person interested in business at the age of 25 selecting a particular area of interest in the field of business and beginning a job in that field. The consolidation task begins in the mid-thirties and continues throughout the rest of the person's working life as he or she advances up the career ladder. One example of this would be our business employee working his or her way up to a management position in the company.
