This article using longitudinal data from the British Cohort Study to examine the early labor markrt trajectories-the careers-of than 5.000 women aged 16 to 29 years. Conventional event history approaches focus on particular transitions, the return to work after childbirth, for example, whereas the authors treat female careers more holistically, using sequence methods and cluster analysis to arrive at a rich but readily interpretable description of the data. The authors' typology presents a fuller picture of the underlying heterogeneity of female career paths that may not be revealed by more conventional transition-focussed methods. Futhermore, the authors contribute to the small but growing literature on sequence analysis of female labor force participation by using their typology the show how careers are related to family background and school experiences.
