Investigation of career stress of tourist guide candidates
Öz
The greatest expectation of university students is to find a job in the field they have received education and to have a successful career. Students' stress on whether or not they can achieve these goals after graduation is a significant issue. Determining the perceptions of students related to career stress will contribute to reducing the sources of stress. In this study carried out to specify the career stress of tourist guide candidates, the sample group consisted of 210 students enrolled in Afyon Kocatepe University, Faculty of Tourism, Department of Tourism Guiding. The data collected by questionnaire were analysed by statistical techniques, such as frequency and percentage distribution, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, t-test and analysis of variance. The obtained data suggested that general career stress levels of tourist guide candidates were below moderate level. Of the career stress factors, “career ambiguity and lack of information” and “employment pressure” were calculated the highest mean values. In addition, career stress levels of tourist guide candidates differed significantly according to gender, age, grade, status of working in the tourism sector.
