Abstract

This article aims to analyze personal career management of employees at privatized public organizations after the professional transition process. In the quantitative phase of the study, probabilistic sampling was considered. For definition of the study population, 385 respondents were randomly selected, with 122 respondents completing the mandatory items. The final sample consisted of 56 people who resigned and 66 continuing employees, equal to 1.29% of the total sampled population, with a 95% confidence level and a maximum error of 8.8%. For the qualitative phase, which was explanatory in nature, the interview technique was applied. The results showed that even if the company disappears, the way people manage their careers tends to remain. Attitudes repeat during transition and influence subsequent career management.
