Data was required from young adults aged 19 to 23 years (M = 21.40, SD = 1.75) to get knowledge about these career developmental tasks. The technique of Focus Group Discussions was used for a better understanding of the career developmental tasks. Term career development was used to acquire information about career planning, exploration, and decision-making tasks in the sample.
