UNIVERSITY STUDENT PROFESSIONAL CAREER: CAREER MANAGEMENT COMPETENCY STRUCTURE

University studies is a significant stage for future career designing. It is obvious, that certain competencies are being formed and form during that period. It is likely, that their significance is different, and also certain differences in terms of sex are possible. Research on student career problems in the latter years remain actual. It is likely, that analysing students' positions on these questions, sufficiently objective initial information is obtained. Empirical research (N=265), carried out between October to December, 2014 showed, that six most important career management competencies are significant for students. Carried out career management competency internal structure analysis showed, that problem solving competency (SI=0.89) is the most significant one, the leadership competency (SI=0.74) is the least important. However, evaluating according to significance index, one can claim, that all discerned competencies are sufficiently significant. It has been stated, that problem solving, social, change management and self-awareness competencies are statistically more important for female students than male.
