Abstract
Soelberg (1966, 1967a, 1967b) developed a job search and choice model that is interpreted here as a four-phase, sequential process.An attempt is made to clarify the model, some of its hypotheses, and the measures used in Soelberg's research.Theoretical and practical implications of the model are presented; deficiencies of previous tests of the model are noted; and future research directions are suggested.
