Overview of the Case
A high school graduate Mike Scott, working as a receptionist at the headquarters of a
large corporation. Scott did not give much thoughts on planning career development however, he
wants to improve the economic conditions. Due to his qualification limitations, he is unable to
apply in any job and hence opt for additional course such as accounting. Unfortunately, Scott had

employee and employer. It would be easier for Scott to talk with any other peer from the office
in order to seek advice. The other possible reason is Scott does not have any idea whom to ask
and from whom he shall take advice from (Vondracek, Lerner & Schulenberg, 2019). As it is
