Dr. P. Dineshkumar / AP / AGE / KNCET 30
INTERNAL SOURCES A) Present employees Promotion It implies upgrading of an employee to a higher position carrying higher status, pay and responsibilities.

B) Former employees Retired or retrenched employee may be interested to come back to the company to work on a part time basis.

Exploration stage The exploration stage is the pre-employment stage, wherein the individuals are in their mid-twenties and enter from their college life to the work environment. The individuals narrow down their work preferences on the basis of the directions shown by their parents, friends, family, teachers. At this stage, several expectations about the work are created that may be the fantasies or unrealistic beliefs about the work, very much before entering into the firm. Dr. P. Dineshkumar / AP / AGE / KNCET 51
Establishment stage The career establishment stage begins with the individual's entry into the world of work ideally in a position which matches the organisational needs with individual's needs. This stage involves the individual's entry into the organisation, socialisation on the job, recognition for effective work, possible promotions and transfers and achievement of full acceptance by the work group. This establishment period lasts approximately from age 25 to 35. Dr. P. Dineshkumar / AP / AGE / KNCET 52
Mid-career or Advancement stage This stage covers the age period of 35 to 45 years. At this stage, the individual is no longer considered to be a fresher and his mistakes are taken seriously by the senior management. Here, the employee must evaluate his current career position, i.e. whether he is advancing, or has stabilized or has started to decline and look for the future career prospects. At this stage, an individual has to maintain a balance between his career and his personal life i.e. spouse and children. Dr. P. Dineshkumar / AP / AGE / KNCET 53
Late-career or Maintenance stage At this stage, an individual reaches to a particular position in the organization hierarchy, on the basis of his career graph which is characterized by growth or stagnation. If an individual grows even after the mid-career (i.e. 20 years after mid-forties), then he is considered to be having the pleasant experience with the work. Here, an individual becomes the mentor and guide others through his experiences. Dr. P. Dineshkumar / AP / AGE / KNCET 54
Decline This is the last stage of career development. At this stage, an individual has to step out of his work or get a retirement from his official commitments. It is considered as one of the difficult stages, as it is very hard for the employees to leave the firm who are doing excellent even after their late career. Dr. P. Dineshkumar / AP / AGE / KNCET 55
