“…Yet not much is known about young people's collaborative information seeking in the context of their career development. It has been broadly documented that parents often seek information on behalf of their childrenespecially health-related information and information to facilitate post-secondary transitionsand that young people's dependence on adults can be considerable, since they are still learning how to conduct research (Crowley & High, 2018;El Sherif et al, 2022;Shenton & Hay-Gibson, 2011;Zhang & Liu, 2023). Teachers, friends and family are approached with information queries in everyday life that are not limited only to career development (Agosto & Hughes-Hassell, 2005).…”

This study explores the career information-seeking behaviours of young people and career advisers. These are examined through the interrogation of a secondary data set held by Scotland's national skills agency, Skills Development Scotland. Descriptive and frequency analyses of engagement records from career conversations reveal three key characteristics of information seeking in career advisory settings: prompted information seeking; information seeking on young people's behalf and collaborative information seeking. The original contribution of this study lies in two novel research foci: (a) the identification of distinct patterns of career information-seeking behaviours and colloquial language which signifies that information seeking has taken place and (b) the consideration of young people and career advisers’ collaborative information seeking behaviours and their roles and functions within the career information-seeking process. These findings have implications for the improvement of career services and the development of career information, advice and guidance (CIAG) policies.
