“…This finding could have resulted from the socioeconomic stratum of the sample and the respondents being knowledgeable about using the Internet. In fact, according to Maldifassi and Canessa (2010), higher education promotes the widespread use of Internet technologies and computing. According to the findings, uncertainty over the online environment is evident, and influences the consumers' attitude and intention toward online purchasing.…”

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.

“…Contradictory findings have also been reported in the literature. For example, Maldifassi and Canessa (2009) found that gender has the least importance when explaining differences in the use of ICT and perception regarding the usefulness of ICT. In another study, Zhang (2005) reported the view that there is no statistically significant difference in terms of ICT subscale usefulness between male and female employees.…”

This study first reviews and discusses mobile technology issues from a global perspective, and then investigates the impact of demographic (gender, age, income), personal (ICT experience, work experience), and organisational (sector) factors related to employees on adopting mobile commerce (m-commerce) and mobile services (m-services). A survey is conducted among employees from government-and private-sector organisations for this purpose, assuming that this group plays an important role in helping to adopt new technologies in societies. Based on this survey, the results indicate that gender, experience, and sector have an impact on attitude towards using m-technologies and that such attitude has a significant effect on the actual use of m-technologies.

With the intention to verify the influence of sales approaches in the process of acceptance and use of products with technological innovations, a survey using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) was made. Through structural equation modeling, it was identified the relationships among the three sales approaches (competition focus, product focus and customer focus) and the constructs of the model (perceived usefulness, perceived ease, attitude to use, intention to use, current use and normative pressure). The results confirmed six of the twelve hypotheses: a strategy focused on competition interferes with the relationship between utility and attitude of use (H1b) and the relationship between normative pressure and purchase intention (H6); strategy with focus on product interferes with relations between utility usage and attitude (H2a), facility and purchase intent (H3B), fun attitude and usage (H5a) and attitude and purchase intention (H7). It is concluded, therefore, that the relationship between acceptance and sales strategies, and purchase new products is moderate and that the most efficient strategy in this case is focused on the product.
