The book presents a research study that examined the retraining and
career development experiences of new and professional immigrants
in Canada. The study intended to provide an in-depth perspective
into the influence of immigrants optimism and self-efficacy on
their retraining and career development experiences. Using a
qualitative methodology, in-depth interviews were conducted and a
grounded theory approach was employed to analyze the data. Central
themes within participant narratives emerged and key results were
introduced. Participants experiences included a myriad of barriers
and challenges, yet many viewed this experience as a positive
opportunity for growth and development. The results explored
differences between optimists and pessimists retraining and career
development experiences, as well as the role of self-efficacy
within immigrants career development. Results have implications for
career and vocational psychology literature, practice, and career
counselling, and include suggestions for future researchers.
