Abstract
Krieshok (1998) reviewed the empirical literature and concluded with ten th ings the field knows for sure about career decision-making, as well as ten things we assume we know but which the literature suggests need reconsidera tion, This article summarizes those findings in light of their implications for career center practice, including less emphasis on becoming decided, m ore emphasis on acting as one's own agent, and the importance of addressing clients' resistance to engaging in anything more than simple short-term in terventions.
