摘要：AbstractThe dynamic nature of labor market and the shift from the lifelong employment with a single employer to multiple careers has impacted development of new approaches toward career. Hence, the concept of boundaryless career as the opposite to the traditional, organizational career was proposed. Meanwhile, the construct of protean career focuses on self-directed vocational behavior. The paper aims to compare traditional and contemporary approaches toward career development. The emphasis is put on individual perspective versus organizational perspective. The authors strive to reveal what factors impact the success of the second or even the third career. The contemporary findings provided in scientific literature are discussed and analyzed. The researches focused on approaches toward career are seen as vast and complex. On the other hand, the complexity of phenomenon impacted inconsistency of different studies. Resulting conclusions about the implications of contemporary approaches toward career development would lead us to develop the framework and recommendations for future research and theory development.
