At the core of the circles are biological factors. They suggest that our genes influence our predispositions to certain types of behaviors, emotions, and psychological traits that may tend to lead us to one type of career or job as opposed to another. It could be that as we continue to understand the human genome those predilections will become clearer (Fouad & Bingham, 1995)."

In the United States significantly more males than females are found in realistic occupations, and more females are in the social occupations as defined by the Holland Hexagon. Society seems to begin to push boys and girls toward different activities and careers when they are very young (Fouad & Bingham, 1995)."

4. An African American child raised in poverty is less likely to leave the poverty when he/she is grown (Family & Its Circumstances).

6. Who one spends their time with can and will influence their career choices (Social Constructions). African American children who are academically are not challenged when they enter the workforce under challenging situations are not able to perform.

*Career counseling begins in childhood and continues throughout life
* Attempt to understand the impact of parenting, role models, socioeconomic status, social support, and career intervention programs on the career development of African American men; Parental & Social Supports are necessary.

Such understanding includes familiarity with class, family, gender, and structural factors. The counselor is also directed to understand personal racial identity development and the racial identity development of the client (Ward, 2001)."

"The Career Counseling Checklist is given to clients prior to any interventions. Clients are asked to think about matters that include abilities, cultural issues, career knowledge and behaviors, self-confidence, secret daydreams, and so on. The counselor can use the information to establish an appropriate intervention, though the counselor may still be unsure where to begin (Ward, 2001)."
