Career Maturity and Intervention Strategies: A bibliometric approach

Abstract

<p>This study explores whether Malaysian student career awareness interventions whilst still in secondary school, that focus on career maturity and their readiness for the evolving job market, effectively prepares them for employment success. Recognising the importance of aligning career choices with interests and skills, the paper examines the impact of these interventions. However, despite growing interest, there remains a gap in understanding the actual impact of these career interventions for Malaysian students transitioning out of secondary education. Using Scopus Analyzer, academic paperswere analysed considering publication trends, authorship, citations, and key topics. The paper aimed to highlight research trends and patterns, identify research gaps, and offer insights for future studies. Ultimately, this research seeks to clarify whether the career awareness interventions prior to Malaysian students transitioning to the workforce genuinely enhance their career choice, maturity, and success.</p>
