Abstract: Introduction. In an era of global labor market transformations, building individualized career trajectory became essential. Professional competencies formation increasingly depends on psychological expertise, which served as a systemic tool for managing human capital. Objective. This study explored psychological assessment’ contribution to career development, focusing on its role in shaping soft skills, leadership potential, and stress resilience. It also examined international practices and corporate strategies that integrated psychometric tools. Method. Using a mixed-method approach, the study analyzed theoretical models—psychometric, constructivist, and integrative—of psychological assessment in professional settings. Empirical data included case studies from multinational corporations (Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Ford, Procter & Gamble) and national systems in the USA, Germany, France, Japan, and Sweden. Results. The findings showed that psychological expertise enhanced core competencies such as emotional self-regulation, self-reflection, and psychological maturity—factors critical for long-term professional success. In leading global companies, psychometric assessments formed a central element of HR strategies. National systems varied in structure and predictive models but shared a focus on aligning individual potential with labor market demands. In educational contexts, psychodiagnostic tools were used for early identification of professional profiles, guiding students toward informed career choices. Conclusion. Integrated psychological assessment was identified as a key factor in fostering adaptive and sustainable career behavior. By supporting emotional and cognitive readiness for professional challenges, it enabled individuals to navigate uncertainty and complexity. The study highlighted the strategic value of psychological expertise in both educational and corporate environments, positioning it as a cornerstone of modern human capital development.
