“…Celik et al (2016) found that individual career, work-related curiosity, confidence, the ability to adapt to work and future career cannot be explained by people management. Career and work-related curiosity are associated with divergent thinking skills (Haenggli and Hirschi, 2020).

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to examine the psychometric properties of the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS-Arabic form) and investigates the relationship between Emirati students' employability skills and their career adaptability in the workplace, against the backdrop of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR 4.0).Design/methodology/approachA survey was conducted of 420 full-time, working and part-time students in their final year in the United Arab Emirates (UAEs).FindingsAs hypothesized, career adaptability is positively related to the employability skills of complex problem-solving, critical thinking, creativity, people management and coordinating with others, even when controlling for demographic characteristics.Practical implicationsConsistent with career construction theory, this study presents evidence of the instrumental role of skills required for IR 4.0 in managing career resources and subjective career success. Understanding the relationship between IR 4.0 skills and career adaptability offers valuable insights for academia and policymakers on formulating strategies and action plans to continually update Emirati students' transferable skills. It is also crucial for long-term success in human capital sustainability under the Emiratization policy.Originality/valueThis study is a preliminary step toward clarifying the complex mechanism through which career adaptability relates to career outcomes and sustaining employability. Concentrating on UAE undergraduates, this study elucidates the relationship between employability skills and career adaptability, and advocates more research employing boundary conditions that might limit their effects on adapting behaviors.

“…The globalization of economies, rapid technological advancements, and an increase in competition have not only brought about changes to organizational work environments but have made careers less predictable, driving workers to take more responsibility for their career development (Guan et al, 2019; Haenggli & Hirschi, 2020). As organizations become flatter and opportunities for upward advancements become more limited (Shockley et al, 2016), the need for research investigating contemporary career types, characterized by increased self-directedness, a boundaryless attitude, and a focus on subjective career success (Lo Presti et al, 2018; Wiernik & Kostal, 2019) appears pertinent.…”

This study examines the link between protean career and boundaryless career attitudes and subjective career success. We propose that employees with protean and boundaryless career attitudes are more likely to engage in job crafting behavior, ultimately leading to career commitment and career satisfaction. Data from 321 business professionals working in France revealed that protean and boundaryless career attitudes predict subjective career success in the form of career commitment and career satisfaction through job crafting. The data also revealed a serial mediation pathway whereby protean and boundaryless career attitudes positively predicted job crafting behavior, which lead to stronger career commitment and increased career satisfaction. These results highlight the importance of job crafting behavior as an important, yet unexplored work-related phenomenon with significant organizational implications.
