Abstract: The emerging transition in employees' career perspectives and related preferences has put up many challenges for organisations to retain and sustain their workforce. The social revolution has changed individuals' perception of the standard of living to quality of living where career plays a decisive factor in leading a successful life. Career need analysis is crucial from both employer and employee's perspectives to ensure incessant growth and stability at the same time. Though, various career stage models were explored in the previous studies, considering their impact on different job-related factors. This paper typically focuses on analysing the shifting career needs from one career stage to another career stage of an employee in the service industry, taking super's career stage model as the base model for different career stages and their needs. Primary data was collected through a structured questionnaire from 487 respondents. The overall nature of the study is descriptive which is mainly based on an ex-post facto approach. The findings suggest a significant change in employees' needs among different career stages in today's scenario.
