Abstract

The career indecision construct is a matter of concern for the high school students ¹. Many factors such as perceived social support, personality, self-esteem and neuroticism are contributing to the career indecision². The current research was conducted to inspect the impact of internet savviness on the career indecision among the senior secondary school students. The study included 720 senior secondary school students (240 students from each type of schools i.e. government, government aided and private schools, out of 360 are male students and 360 are female students). The results revealed that career indecision and internet savviness are negatively related with each other. Male and female do not differ on their career indecision but they differ on their internet savviness. Students studying in private school are less uncertain about their career choice and confdent in using internet.
