This study aims to determine the factors influenced online job search among millennial students in Malaysia Technical University Network (MTUN). A total of 300 university students through on-oneself-reported questionnaires were collected from four MTUN namely Uni-versiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM), Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), Univer-siti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM) and Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP). This study performs descriptive analysis, reliability testing, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis by using IBM-SPSS software version 22. The results indicate that factors such as user-perception, social networking sites, and smartphone technology are significantly related to the online job search enhancement. Amongst these three factors, user perception appears to be the strongest predictor toward online job search enhancement. This study concludes that besides consideration of the identified factors which lead to the successful adoption of online job search, effortless and interactive online job search websites in creating a convenient and favorable job search environment would be able to increase the use of online job search. Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi pencarian kerja di kalangan mahasiswa generasi milenium di Malaysia Technikal University Network (MTUN). Sejumlah 300 mahasiswa dari empat MTUN, yaitu Universiti Tun Hus-sein Onn Malaysia (UTHM), Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM) dan Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP) telah diuji secara statistik. Penelitian ini menggunakan analisis deskriptif, uji reliabilitas, analisis korelasi dan analisis regresi berganda dengan menggunakan software IBM-SPSS versi 22. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa faktor-faktor seperti persepsi pengguna, laman jarin-gan sosial dan teknologi telefon pintar adalah signifikan terhadap peningkatan pencar-ian pekerjaan responden. Diantara tiga faktor, persepsi pengguna merupakan prediktor paling besar yang mempengaruhi pencarian pekerjaan responden. Penelitian ini meny-impulkan bahwa di samping mempertimbangkan faktor yang paling mempengaruhi kes-uksesan perilaku pencarian kerja, tanpa tenaga dan laman pencarian kerja yang interaktif responden tidak dapat meningkatkan perilaku pencarian kerja online yang mudah dan menguntungkan.
The current study aims to examine how students’ intentions to use 4.5G mobile phones are affected by the social-economic factors of performance expectancy, cost, effort expectancy, and social influence. This study is based on the perspectives of the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT). The central assumption of this study is that when students use 4.5G mobile services to source information at university, their academic performance is likely to improve. From eight private and public universities in Malaysia, 2117 students were enrolled in this study. We investigated the effects of gender and awareness as moderators on the relationships among the variables of interest. The findings showed that social influence and performance expectancy positively affected university students’ intentions to use 4.5G mobile phones. The researchers conducted a multigroup analysis to confirm the moderating effect of gender among the underlying relationships in the model. Structural equation modeling analysis indicated that, unlike awareness, gender did not moderate social influence, effort expectancy, performance expectancy, or the cost of students’ intentions to use 4.5G mobile phones. The implications of the proposed approach, considering the digital transformation concept, could be a topic for future research.
