A CONSTRUÇÃO DA CARREIRA E O PAPEL DAS INSTITUIÇÕES DE ENSINO SUPERIOR PRIVADA: UM ESTUDO DE CASO

Este projeto se insere na área de Gestão de Carreiras e trata de questões referentes aos critérios utilizados para a construção de carreira dos alunos iniciantes do ensino superior. No momento da tomada de decisão, os jovens baseiam-se em seus desejos e aspirações, bem como são pressionados pela força cultura e social. Observam somente valores tais como status, remuneração e prestígio? O questionamento é permeado pela concepção de que o indivíduo é produto e também produtor da cultura. A relevância desta pesquisa se fundamenta na busca por compreender os critérios utilizados para a construção do caminho profissional dos jovens universitários, e qual a participação das instituições de ensino superior no processo. A pesquisa bibliográfica utilizada para a construção da plataforma teórica, permite aprofundar os conhecimentos sobre o tema, e serve como base para o estudo de caso que envolve alunos iniciantes do curso de administração de empresas e também uma profissional da área de Gestão de Carreira de uma instituição de ensino superior privada de São Paulo.(AU)

Justice source and justice content:evaluating the fairness of organizational career management practices

This article presents part of the findings of a multi-method study into employee perceptions of fairness in relation to the organisational career management (OCM) practices of a large financial retailer. It focuses on exploring how employees construct fairness judgements of their career experiences and the role played by the organisational context and, in particular, OCM practices in forming these judgements. It concludes that individuals can, and do, separate the source and content of (in)justice when it comes to evaluating these experiences. The relative roles of the employer, line manager and career development opportunities in influencing employee fairness evaluations are discussed. Conceptual links with organisational justice theory are proposed, and it is argued that the academic and practitioner populations are provided with empirical evidence for a new theoretical framework for evaluating employee perceptions of, and reactions to, OCM practices.
