| Abstract: | This research examines the influence of Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) on career choice among students and early-career professionals, including job-switching behavior, peer influence, social media exposure, and long-term satisfaction. Through examination of responses from 130 participants in India and overseas, the study examines how FOMO influences professional choices and leads to emotional consequences like career regret and growth misalignment. The research uses quantitative approaches such as correlation analysis, hypothesis testing, and regression modelling to identify important correlations between high levels of FOMO and impulsive career changes, lower satisfaction, and higher regret. Furthermore, peer pressure and social media were identified to have unique contributions to career choices, with peer pressure being notably significant in students pursuing foreign studies. The research indicates an essential need for the inclusion of psychological constructs such as FOMO in career development and organizational planning frameworks. Comparative studies across cultures identified that while social media power continues to be omnipresent on a global level, peer pressure is context-specific and affects the level of FOMO-led decision-making. The research advises pre-emptive measures by individuals, teachers, and employers to counter FOMO's detrimental impacts, instil self-insight, and encourage value-driven career directions. By positioning FOMO as a quantifiable force on early career formation, this study adds to a richer understanding of emotional decision-making in contemporary career contexts. |
