Abstract
This article discusses some of the unique career behavior characteristics of Blacks as they relate to extant career development theories and social factors. Traditional theories assume that the individual has the opportunity to make realistic career choices and to gain occupational entry without consideration of the many situational factors involved. Dillard discusses situational factors as uniquely related to career choice behavior of Blacks (socioeconomic background, work ethic, career values, aspirations, expectations).
