This study was designed to investigate the relationships among basic skills for career development, competence, and self-esteem in undergraduate students. Ninety-three students (41 male, 52 female) participated in this study. Results indicated that high self-esteem students scored significantly higher than low self-esteem students on self-perceptions of four basic skills for career development (communication, exploration of information, future planning, and decision-making) and of four domains of competence (intelligence, interpersonal relationship, health, and volition). Moreover, communication and exploration of information were positively correlated to interpersonal relationship. Future planning and decision-making were positively correlated to volition.
