Abstract
The purpose of this study was to perform a convergence study for investigating main features and influencing factors in career development process, throughout the whole periods of education, that might influence their ultimate choice of majors. We collected data of career development process at the elementary, middle, high school, and college levels using career-o-grams, for the college students who majored in English Lang/Lit and Global Commerce, and we applied text mining techniques for qualitative data analysis. Two major factors influencing career goals were parents and teachers. In particular, teachers were most influential in the career decisions at the middle school level. Teachers, family situations, and peers showed a negative impact on career aspiration. The findings would serve as a guide for career consultants and education program developers.
