Consequently, experts have conceptualized different models of career: the “nomadic career” (Tremblay, 2003), the “protean career” (Hall & Moss, 1998), the “portfolio career” (Templer & Cawsey, 1999), and the “intelligent career” (Arthur, Claman, & De Filippi, 1995). In particular, the “protean career” can be considered the precursor of the boundaryless career as it points to those careers moving through different organizations, without boundaries. In addition, new approaches identify three essential features to explain the concept of career (Lichtenstein & Mendenhall, 2002): 1.

Journal of Vocational Behavior, 69 (1), 19–29. ). As a consequence, the nature of careers has changed as well, from “traditional” bureaucratic careers to ones described as “boundaryless” (Arthur & Rousseau, 1996) and “protean” (Hall, 2004). Even if these two concepts (metaphors) have been criticized and discussed in recent years (Arnold & Cohen, 2008), one evident feature of the new careers (mainly described by the boundaryless metaphor) is the requirement for workers to transit among different kinds of organizations and jobs.
