Introduction: Federation Employment Service, a free, non‐secretarian guidance and placement agency, devotes primary attention to those persons in greatest need of vocational service. Since 1934, it has offered employment and counseling assistance to its community, with emphasis on the “hard‐to‐place.” Special projects have been organized as need arose—for veterans, youth, and other groups. And when post‐war conditions indicated that older workers had difficulty in finding jobs, the Service decided to focus public attention on their needs.

Foreword: Even for the experienced counselor, it is usually easier to assess a vocational problem and indicate what should be accomplished than to describe the process of solution. In an effort, therefore, to illustrate the techniques and principles of vocational counseling, the authors have constructed the following composite case, representative of the average problem encountered at a university counseling service. It has purposely been over‐simplified in order better to highlight the over‐all counseling process and, in the opinion of the writers, the fundamental principles of vocational counseling.—The Authors.
