When considering the bidirectional influence of career decision making and identity development, how does one’s identity impact one’s vocational choice(s) and vice versa?

Career decision making and identity development are interconnected in modern-day capitalist economies and societies. From an early age, the education system puts people on a path towards career goals as an adult.
From a psychological point of view, a person's identity--composed of a fixed or ever-changing personality, ideologies, and perspective on the self and the world--influences their chosen career(s). Personal experiences are also factors in choosing one's vocation.
For example, a child who experienced the loss of a parent due to cancer might be inspired to enter the medical profession, or a person who grew up in a military family might be influenced to follow the tradition.
Likewise, one's chosen vocation could influence their personal identity. For example, a person who has chosen a religious vocation (e.g. Catholic priest, Buddhist monk, et al.) will more than likely follow a lifestyle that reflects their vocational ethos and rules.
