Background. There is neither standardized definition of what a career strategy is, nor have the types of these strategies been delineated or agreed upon. In order to study the phenomenon precisely, we need to formulate a definition of career strategies.Purpose. The objective of this field review is to summarize the literature on career strategies, analyze career strategies identified by researches, and to identify strategies that are most universal for application by different groups of the population.Materials and Methods. A total of 1,844 articles were found in the Scopus database, 25 of which contained detailed information about career strategies and were retained in the review.Results.Thematic synthesis of the literature brought out the most popular career strategies: mentoring, maintaining a balance between family and work, networking. The analysis shows that there is no equally useful and applicable career strategy for everyone. Each of the strategies considered in this review offers certain actions that facilitate the construction of a career in certain specialties for certain social groups. For this reason, it seems necessary to constantly monitor new research in the field in order to be aware of current approaches to the study of career strategies.Implications. The results of the research work can be useful for those who are connected with or interested in the topic of career strategies.

Background. Applied bachelor's degree involves the training of practice-oriented graduates, and the main goal of training in this case is the acquisition of the most practical knowledge, skills and abilities that allow them to be involved in production processes straight after the graduation. In addition to the system of work placement the implementation of a communicative project at the graduation course is an important tool allowing graduates to work out their skills and abilities, and to form the basis of the student's thesis.Purpose. This study analyzes the pathways of the communication project implementation of such projects in the context of the educational activities of future specialists.Materials and Methods. The project is a multi-level practical activity for establishing partnerships between the “Dialogue of Hearts foundation” with the media and the commercial sector. The main research methods applied are analysis and a systematic approach. Classification and comparison methods were also used. The communication project implementation was based on a four-stage marketing model. The goal setting of the project was carried out according to the five-stage model of P. Drucker. The contractor had a crowdfunding task to raise funds for one of the fund's programs. The results of the project were monitored using the the set of KPIs (the number and quality of publications in the media, media coverage, the amount of funding raised).Results. The result of the project was a developed instruction for establishing communication support for the foundation's charitable activities, illustrating the development of the graduate's key competencies.Implications. The article may be of interest to teachers of communication disciplines, practitioners in the field of communication support for charity, and recent graduates in the field of crowdfunding, as it contains a description of the key mechanism for solving the problem of attracting funds to a charitable foundation.

Background: Nowadays the number of students studying abroad increases rapidly. Migrant students represent a highly motivated and achieving category and contribute a lot to the economies of the host countries. Coming to the host country they face different challenges, one of them being employment. Previous studies reveal that migrant students during the period of their acculturation undergo various difficulties, and even after graduation, there are such hurdles as pressure, immigration policies, and an uncertain future. If they want to pursue a career in the host country, new barriers such as documentation requirements, problems with language and discrimination could appear.Purpose: The necessity to create a safe environment that can help them acquire the necessary skills needed at a job interview made the research authors consider the use of a VR tool.Materials and Methods: 171 migrant students took part in the research. Based on a needs analysis to depict the barriers migrant students face while seeking a job in a host country the architecture of a computer simulator “Employment navigator” was designed.Results: The identified needs of migrant students, as well as the main barriers to their adaptation, can influence the optimization of the system of adaptation of foreign students in the conditions of host universities. The ‘Employment Navigator’ virtual reality simulator can be used as a tool to assess the readiness of a migrant student to undergo a job interview successfully.Implication: Virtual reality simulators make it possible to repeat actions as many times as necessary to achieve the desired result and proved their efficiency applied to all vulnerable categories of citizens.

Background. The article is devoted to the study of the concept and essence of professionography - a comprehensive study of the profession. The relevance of the research topic is due to the extremely important significance of staffing organizations, the development of a system of evaluation and selection of hired personnel, the need to improve the mechanism of personnel selection. Various points of view on the concept of professionography are given, which, in the author's opinion, are imperfect. In this regard, the author's interpretation of professionography is proposed, which is based on the disclosure of the essence of the concept of professionography.Purpose. The purpose of this study is a theoretical justification of the specifics and importance of professionography as a field of scientific knowledge and a means of personnel selection. The objectives of the research are the following: generalization of existing views and scientific points of view on the problem under consideration; development of the author's definition of the concept of "professionography"; identification of the specifics of professionography as a field of scientific knowledge in the context of solving personnel selection problems; analysis of the basic principles of professionography; identification of popular and effective methods used in professionography.Materials and Methods. The methodological basis of the study was the methodological foundations of labor psychology. The psychological theory of activity developed by A.N. Leontiev acted as a methodological basis for occupational research. The provisions of this theory contributed to the formation of a systematic approach to the psychological study of professions.Results. The results of the conducted research include theoretical substantiation of the specifics of professionography as a field of scientific knowledge and means of personnel selection, the author's definition of the concept of professionography, identification of popular and effective methods used in professionography, their analysis and classification/Implications. The results can be used in the process of further study of the problems under consideration, as well as applied by practical psychologists and sociologists.
