Abstract

Many college students experience career indecision. College students that identify as LGBTQ+ and students of color may experience greater difficulty in the career decision-making process as they often deal with the additional stress of managing multiple marginalized identities. The additional stress can have an impact on their career choice and development. A sample of seven participants was selected for the study. Participants completed a semi-structured interview sharing experiences navigating their racial, sexual, and gender identities and detailing their influence on their career decision-making process as LGBTQ+ students of color at a predominantly white institution in the south. Given the unique personal and contextual factors, Social Cognitive Career Theory was used to better understand the experiences of the selected participants. The findings support existing themes that have emerged from looking at the experiences of other marginalized groups and should provide additional insight to inform more multiculturally competent career counseling.
