In this study, it was aimed to reveal the current situation by determining the career anxiety levels and career stress, together with the restrictions during the Covid-19 pandemic process in the Y and Z generations. The study consists of 346 (Ageaverage= 22.47±3.31) volunteers who study in the Faculties of Sports Sciences and Health Sciences located in 3 different provinces of Turkey. Data from the study was collected online via ‘Google Forms’ using the ‘Personal Information Form’ and ‘Scale of Career Stress’ using a screening model from quantitative research methods. Data were examined through SPSS 21.0 program by using percent (%), frequency (f), arithmetic average, Independent samples test and pearson chi-square were applied. According to the findings, the participants' scores on the career stress scale based on career "uncertainty and lack of knowledge" (p <0.001, Cohen's d = 0.56), "external conflict" (p <0.001, Cohen's d = 0.47), "Pressure to find employment "(p <0.002, Cohen's d = 0.33) and" career stress scale total "(p <0.001, Cohen's d = 0.52) scores were found to be statistically significant. There is a relationship between the career anxiety felt by the generation Y during the Covid-19 Pandemic (p = 0.20; p <0.05). As a result; Career stress is a situation that may arise at every stage of the career ladder. Career stress can also be a driving force for career advancement.
