In adolescence, the career choice process is configured as an important moment in which beliefs of self-efficacy can have a considerable influence. This study aimed to verify the influence of self-efficacy beliefs and psychosocial aspects in the process of career choice of adolescents attending the last year of high school. Six adolescents between 17 and 18 years old participated. The Self-efficacy Scale for Professional Choice and individual interviews were applied. The results suggest that self-efficacy and contextual aspects acted as factors of important influence in the participants' career choice process.
