This article reports on integrative career counselling for early career individuals. This approach and intervention involve the elicitation and use of individuals’ multiple smaller career-life stories (qualitative assessment and intervention) and their scores on tests (quantitative assessment). The aim is to help them make important choices in their career-lives in collaboration with their career counsellors in rapidly changing times and work contexts. In the end, career counsellors and these individuals are enabled to devise life and career projects that enable early career individuals to make meaning in their work-lives, make social contribution, and experience a sense of self-worth and purpose in their career-lives. Using the approach within the current South African situation could enhance entrepreneurship and promote self-entrepreneurship and employability. Future longitudinal research, including multiple case and quantitative studies on the topic is needed. Such research could potentially implement different assessment instruments and include questionnaires to facilitate pre- and post-assessment of the effectiveness of the intervention.
