Abstract
The authors introduced reading materials to international students that described the experiences of former international students, with the goal of giving them the opportunity to consider their own career development. These materials included former students' descriptions of difficult episodes they had dealt with both while at university and while at work. The students thus had the opportunity to consider problems that they themselves will face in considering their future careers. However, some students were frightened by the episodes about former students; several wished that the readings had addressed a more diverse field of majors and careers. It was clear that diversifying the experiences presented was necessary.
