Abstract
Clients' personality traits and individual characteristics, such as age, gender, reason for seeking counselling, and further
compounding problems in their personal or academic lives, may pose risk factors that render career decision making
difficult and may also impact the overall effectiveness of a career counselling intervention. Neuroticism and conscien-
tiousness as well as clients' age and gender directly affected clients' satisfaction with life and certain aspects of their
career indecision scores before participating in our short-term career counselling intervention. Career counsellors can
use personality and career-specific and career-non-specific instruments to tailor career counselling interventions to meet
clients' individual needs.
