Career management is a lifelong process of planning your career that includes establishing personal goals, then coming up with strategies to achieve them. Career management can start as soon as high school, before your career actually starts. It can involve choosing a college and selecting a major. It can also start after you've completed your education as you lay out a landscape for your career – and your life. It can also start in mid-life, even if you're already ten or twenty years into your career field (or switching careers).
