“…Other issues worthy of consideration when assessing the existing literature include the lack of longitudinal studies, a concern echoed by Ishihara et al (2013) and Huntington et al (2012). In addition, sample sizes are generally small, and limited to a specific geographic area, employment setting (Jack & Donnellan 2010) and profession, and many studies have low response rates.…”

“…Some research draws explicit and direct causal links between such factors and attraction and retention rates. Ishihara et al (2013) and Laschinger (2012), for instance, conclude that a perceived lack of control over organisational decision-making processes is associated with ECPs' turnover intentions, and Rudman and Gustavsson (2011) find graduates' physical work environment influences retention rates. Laschinger (2012, p.473) proposes a model of "new graduate nurse work life and retention", which theorises that during the first two years of nursing practice, work-related outcomes, including attraction and retention, are a direct result of work-related experiences such as burnout and work/life balance, which are in turn related to situational and personal factors.…”

“…Response rates are not stated in many studies, however where they are mentioned, range from 19.4% (Ishihara et al 2013) to 83% (Hoekstra, van Meijel & van der HooftLeemans 2010).…”

“…Yet another definition, adopted by Price et al (2013), includes first year nursing students born in 1980 or later. Some of the literature (see, for example, Cleary, Horsfall, Jackson, Muthulakshmi & Hunt 2013;Ishihara et al 2013;and Unruh & Nooney 2011) does not specify the duration of work of the research participants. Also problematic is data concerning attraction processes.…”

Valuing complex and diverse career pathways: the career trajectories and career-related choices of early career practitioners

Historically, career was understood to be a static, linear concept concerned primarily with paid employment. More recently, broader conceptualisations of career have extended its meaning to incorporate all aspects and roles of an individual's life and to acknowledge its inherently complex, individual, dynamic and contextual nature. Change, now recognised as a key characteristic of career, underpins choice-making processes, which are influenced by a range of factors, including broad contextual issues like labour market trends, in addition to more personal concerns such as family circumstances. This thesis explored the career trajectories of early career professionals (ECPs) employed in the Health Care and Social Assistance (HCSA) industry. Specifically, the aims of the study were to investigate how ECPs describe their career trajectories and account for their careerrelated choices, to identify important attractors and deterrents in relation to career-related choices, and to explore the relevance and usefulness of chaos theory to this topic.In particular, the author sought to understand how the career trajectories of ECPs develop in the context of complex systems including the family, organisations and the broader society. The conceptual approach chosen for its potential to capture this complexity was chaos theory. Three principles of chaos theory were explored. First, chaotic systems change with time and are characterised by randomness and variation. Second, they are sensitive to initial conditions. Finally, their functioning and level of change is affected by several types of attractors.The context of this study was Queensland's non-government mental health sector (NGMHS).Challenges currently facing the broader mental health sector include inadequate responses to consumer needs, difficulties in recruiting and retaining skilled mental health professionals, an ageing workforce, and increasing reliance on non-government organisations (NGOs). Early career professionals employed within Queensland's NGMHS were chosen as the subjects of this study for their documented characteristics, which include high career mobility, variable work readiness, overand under-qualifications, and disparities between their expectations and the realities of employment.Their potential to both exacerbate and to counter challenges faced by Queensland's NGMHS made focusing on these ECPs compelling. Recent calls for Australia to enhance its long-term economic sustainability in the global context by concentrating more on developing the service economy, rather than the commodities sector, provided added impetus for this study.A qualitative, exploratory methodology was adopted. The research design involved a two-phase study consisting of concept maps and individual autobiographical interviews. Participants comprised 25Page 2 of 309 ECPs who had completed university studies in the five years prior to 2012 and who were employed in Queensland's NGMHS. Data were analysed thematically, using both inductive and deductive approaches.Early career ...
