This article reviews a study that examined sex‐related differences in the importance of job factors among recent college graduates and older graduates employed in various occupations. The job orientation factors used to determine preferences included (a) people oriented, (b) self‐expression, (c) extrinsic reward, and (d) leadership dimensions. Sex differences in job orientations are considered in relation to the occupation and time of graduation for both men and women.
