Web-assisted career counseling

Abstract

For the past 20 years counselors have used computer-based career information systems to assist clients with career planning and job hunting. Much of the same this information is now available on the Internet and can be accessed without the aid of a counselor. Such developments are likely to have a major impact on employment counseling practices. This article outlines selected Web-assisted counseling issues that are likely to affect counselors over the next few years and summarizes the career services currently available on the World Wide Web.
