Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study clarifies the mechanism of global career development, including overseas employment experience, of Japanese highly educated females from the perspective of stepwise career development. Focusing on Japanese female SIEs, this study clarifies factors that influence career development through overseas employment and the acquisition of competencies, and clarifies the factors that influence career reconstruction after their repatriation. Behavioral aspects of the process, such as accumulation of career capital and coping with its devaluation, and changes in identities, such as discovery of life themes through career transitions, were analyzed.
