Abstract Career guidance assists students with the school-to-work transition. Based on a survey conducted in secondary schools in Germany, we analyze career guidance activities and how these affect career plans. The take-up of career guidance depends upon the school track attended, and the school and the class setting, while personal characteristics are barely relevant. The effects of counseling depend upon the type of counseling provider. Counseling by the employment agency reduces plans for educational upgrading and increases the probability of applying for an apprenticeship, while the effects of counseling by school counselors works in the opposite direction for lower track students.

不同的辅导员，有很多选择：中学的职业指导和职业计划

摘要职业指导可帮助学生完成从学校到工作的过渡。根据在德国中学进行的一项调查，我们分析了职业指导活动以及这些活动如何影响职业计划。职业指导的接受程度取决于所参加的学校课程，学校和班级设置，而个人特征几乎不相关。咨询的效果取决于咨询提供者的类型。职业介绍所的咨询减少了升级教育的计划，增加了申请学徒的可能性，而学校辅导员的辅导效果则与低水平学生相反。
