What is it about?
Choosing a career is a crucial and significant milestone in one’s life. It becomes even more critical when a woman makes her career choice decisions. This article makes an attempt to highlight gender role differentiation in the career choice decisions of women. The article follows an autobiographical approach to career counseling and aims to highlight the life story of 25 girls who are pursuing their management graduation in the national capital region of India. “Narrative enquiry method” is used to understand how respondents/participants/interviewees build meaning from within their system of belief, attitude, values, and concepts that outline judgment of individuality and self-identity.

Why is it important?
Women have a strong case to be free to choose the career of their choice, and contribute in the economic and social well-being of not only their own but of the society on broader grounds, to the fullest of their capabilities.
Perspectives
Understanding women, their will to work and their decisions related to work, family, childcare etc is an important step towards making more inclusive and sustainable workforce.
