Abstract	Individuals who pass through low-skilled work in their careers can represent this phase as showing strength of character as obstacles are overcome. However, continuing to work in low-skilled employment has so many negative consequences that finding ways to assist those individuals' career development is an important challenge for guidance policy and practice. The progress, or lack thereof, by individuals from low-skilled employment in seven European countries is examined in the light of ideas about career adaptability. Do individuals differ in how they envisage the future (concern); the extent to which they take responsibility for their own development (control); explore visions of possible future selves (curiosity); and believe in their ability to succeed (confidence) [Savickas, M.
