This quantitative descriptive research explored the perspectives of 438 STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) senior high school students in a 207 public and private secondary school in the province of Iloilo, Philippines in terms of their job choices to analyze and develop a new proposition on Howard Becker's Social Interaction Theory. The need for developing promising theoretical concepts of transition from the traditionally-developed paradigm model of career intervention to the new normal environment was substantiated by the researcher anchored on Becker's Social Interaction Theory used in this study. The theory provides a basis for understanding individual's behavior and viewpoints, where the researcher provides descriptions of processes of human interaction. However, results of the study challenged the theory of Howard Becker (2008) on his proposition: "…People are constructors of their own actions and meanings. Individuals construct their own social realities and perspectives of their world using responses from the environment and different sociocultural relationships with which they interact. Symbolic interactionism or Social Interaction Theory provides opportunities for analyzing ways in which different socializing experiences affect an individual's life cycle…" The argument focused on analyzing ways on which different socializing experiences affect an individual's life cycle as pointed out by Becker in his proposition. This new proposition: "Stereotyping on areas such as social status, gender differences, parent role and sibling ranks is a stimulus of normative social influence. The adopted pattern of thoughts based on past experiences directs people to behave consistently with group norms. Based on the perspectives of the students, this study pointed out that the Howard Beker's Social Interaction Theory on individual's construction of realities and perspectives is influenced by sociological stereotyping and normative social influence. The combination of the two ideas is being attributed as ways in which different socializing experiences affect an individual's life cycle which include his preferences."

English language is accepted as the universal language. This makes speaking competence in the English language a requisite to almost all professions. Speaking competence in the second language is one of the areas needing improvement amongst senior high school students in the Philippines. This study aimed to investigate the influence of some personal factors, speaking anxiety and linguistic competence to student’s speaking competence in the second language. The Second Language Classroom Anxiety Scale was used to measure student’s anxiety towards the use of English as a second language. Job interview simulation is also used involving selected Grade 11 students. Results showed that majority of the students are specialized in non-STEM strand whose parents are not college degree holders. These students demonstrated an average level of speaking anxiety reflecting the tendency to show low self- confidence when asked to speak using the English language yet unprepared for the conversation. Same students also showed remarkably low levels of linguistic competence in terms of grammar, comprehension, and vocabulary. Further analysis showed that linguistic competence significantly influenced student’s speaking competence in the job interview. Findings were used as bases for the development of an intervention program.
