This study aims to present and discuss the evaluation of the intervention outcomes, in a group of Portuguese young adults (EG1=16), and in a group of Mozambican young adults (EG2=16), in comparison with a control group (CG=16). Its effects on cognitive, behavioral, and emotional dimensions of the career exploration process, and on the type of participants’ career concerns were evaluated through the completion of the self-report measures Career Exploration Survey (CES, [5]; EEV, adapt. by [6]) and Adult Career Concerns Inventory (ACCI, [7]; IPC, adapt. by [8]), respectively, in two different moments in time. Implications are drawn for the design of specialized career intervention models adjusted to clients’ multicultural characteristics.
