Summary Job change now and in the future is a reality. Currently, job change appears to be a continental occurrence and is moving toward a global phenomenon. The present discussion of job change in the global marketplace is not meant to be an exhaustive explicative of the topic nor is it inclusive of all future contexts for employment. The intent, instead, has been to encourage the consideration of a multitude of issues related to job change, and to highlight the importance and implications of the evolution of the world of work in regard to this process. Research questions have also been delineated in anticipation of the refinement and expansion of current conceptualizations of job change in the future. Job change is an important dimension in an individual's career development process. It is anticipated, therefore, that this special issue about job change will, at a minimum, lead to a more informed and sophisticated means of understanding and intervening with individuals. Hopefully, the issue will stimulate thinking, dialogue, interventions, programs, and empirical investigations about job change. Regardless of the ultimate eventualities, job change offers exciting opportunities and challenges for individuals now and in the future.
