| Abstract: | The present account continues the story of graduate experiences at British Petroleum. The story began in the Vol. 28. No. 3. issue of Personnel Review. The main topics of discussion are as follows: person-environment fit and its consequences; how employees cope with thwarted expectations; the changing bases of commitment; the use of job change as an employee development strategy; and the design of organizational career systems. Intraorganizational career development is examined in detail. The study also draws attention to deeper issues of identity development in young adulthood. The effective management of graduates demands a subtle appreciation of their psychological adjustment and evolution. |
