Abstract

The world health organization declared Covid-19, a contagious disease, as a pandemic on March 11, 2020. The Covid-19 pandemic significantly impacted all humanity, including the healthcare industry, economic units, and social relationships. The Covid-19 epidemic disease made it compulsory for economic units to innovate in management and business understanding. These business and managerial changes have revealed the need for people who want to improve their career planning and careers to review their career planning. It is clear that the Covid-19 epidemic is an extremely destructive and extraordinary event. Currently, Covid-19 continues to make a profound impact on individuals' careers. Covid-19 epidemic causes career shock in the career development of individuals who want to steer their career. In this sense, career shock can be defined as destructive and extraordinary events caused by factors beyond the control of the individual and triggering a deliberate thought process about one's career. In this study, it was evaluated that Covid-19 was a career shock, and career shock was defined by addressing its potential effects on the career. In terms of career, the biggest effect of Covid-19 is its uncertainty. If Covid-19 cannot be brought under control, its effects will continue increasingly like a snowball in career and all other life areas. Therefore, this study will be able to offer an important perspective to individuals who want to evaluate career opportunities in the Covid-19 process. It is thought that the study may offer suggestions for future researches on career shock.
