It is well-known that studying at a university is the first step in the professional identity development. Unfortunately, not all applicants enter higher education institutions guided by their own beliefs, desires and hopes at the moment. Students are often guided by their parents’ advice or wishes in choosing a university and a future profession. As a result, we can see that students begin to experience difficulties with professional self-determination. They cannot independently work out their career plans and do not see prospects for the successful development of their future professional career. As a result, this situation can lead to voluntary expulsion of a student from a higher educational institution. The authors of the study tried to find out how to help students at a higher educational institution create a career path based on portfolio for their future work and give them an active role in this project. The authors of the paper developed a scenario for a professional portfolio and implemented it into practice in order to increase the future graduates’ chances for their successful professional career. We consider the portfolio as a process, product and tool that promotes reflexivity, personal assessment and self-presentation. It has the properties of self-assessment, self-focus and self-preparation, which are very useful within the curriculum. The portfolio contributes to building the professional identity during the studies and allows students to implement mechanisms that will operate later when graduates integrate into the labor market. The theoretical significance of the research is in consideration of the student's portfolio as a reflexive analysis of future professional activity. In practice, this study ensures career guidance, as reflexivity is involved in building professional identity. The scenario of the professional portfolio was developed and applied in practice in Samara State University of Economics in 2022-2023.

The topicality of the issue of university faculty providing support for students choosing their professional pathways stems from the long-felt need for changes in universities’ and faculties’ performance, with such changes being implemented in the form of more substantial career guidance support. The latter is to be offered not only to those entering universities and then-graduates but also to those who are ‘in between’ these two categories. Our research was aimed to reveal how faculty itself feels about this role, in what way this support can be implemented and what kind of problems and barriers they can face in this process. With the use of pedagogical, psychological and acmeological approaches, possible algorithms of such interaction between a teacher and a student can be established. The expert survey we conducted showed that the majority of the surveyed demonstrated positive approach towards providing career guidance support as part of their performance, with the elements thereof being incorporated into the teaching process and demonstrating certain understanding in what forms such support should be granted, whereas in the course of in-depth interviews, a number of those taking part in the expert survey described potential problems and barriers in implementing such kind of tasks. The practical importance of our research can be reflected in the revealed opportunity of implementing such pedagogical model into university teachers’ performance, which will allow to make the qualitative shifts of bachelors’ training resulting in individuals then joining workforce being well aware of their professional goals and having made a conscious and informed choice of their career pathway.
