“…These findings converge with Career Construction Theory (CCT) of Savickas (2005), which confirmed that continuous adaptation to the work environment is crucial to achieve career success. These results are supported also by previous empirical research which highlighted that CA is related positively to important work and career outcomes specially job and career satisfaction (Chan & Mai, 2015;Zacher and Griffin, 2015). Then, we can affirm that the CA must be perceived as an important variable to predict SCS (Zacher, 2014).…”

This paper is the first to explore predictors' keys of career adaptability and subjective career success in the Saudi context. Many employees, especially women, are facing several challenges in their work, and career adaptability is a way to overcome these difficulties to reach the career success. This research investigated the mediating role of career adaptability (CA) in the relation between both psychological capital (PsCap) and perceived organizational support (POS), as predictors of CA, and subjective career success (SCS). To test our hypotheses, we collected survey data from academic staff in Saudi universities in Riyadh. The results revealed a significant relation between both (PsyCap) and POS on CA. This relation also influenced the SCS through a partial mediation of CA.

“…Thus, the career construction model of adaptation takes into account the spillover effects between one's career, job, and life in general by operationalizing and identifying adaptation results in terms of several positive outcomes concerning individual's career and jobs to various extents. On the one hand, previous research showed evidence of the relation between career adaptability and career-related adaptation results, such as career success (Xie et al, 2016), calling (Guo et al, 2014), career satisfaction (Chan & Mai, 2015) and entrepreneurial intentions and mindsets (e.g. Tolentino et al, 2014).…”

This study aims to investigate whether career adaptability could enhance an employee's work engagement through job crafting behaviors and to address the role of HR practices in this relationship. Based on career construction theory, we first examine whether career adaptability, as a self-regulatory competency may trigger enhanced job crafting behaviors, which in turn increase employee's work engagement. Second, we propose a moderation model in which different implemented high-performance work practices (HPWPs) moderate the relationship between career adaptability and job crafting. The results show that job crafting mediated the positive relationship between career adaptability and work engagement. The results support the hypothesized moderation only for opportunityenhancing HPWPs. The relationship between career adaptability and job crafting is positive and significant for medium and high opportunity-enhancing HPWPs, but not for low levels of this HPWPs domain. The results imply that through the implementation of opportunity-enhancing HPWPs organizations can create a room for employees to express their adaptability at work through crafting their jobs, which in turn relates to work engagement.

AbstractAcademic experiences, besides informing about adaptation to higher education context, have been associated to variables related to career development. In this sense, the objective of this study was to verify the correlation between career adapt-abilities and academic experiences, and the effect of course satisfaction in this correlation. The participants were 89 college students from fifth to ninth semester of a private college. These participants answered the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS) and Academic Adaptation Reduced Questionnaire (QVA-r), and also an item that valued the level of academic satisfaction. A correlation was made between the factors of the CAAS and QVA-r factors, in which there was found a positive correlation between the two instruments, from which can stand out the positive correlation and moderate Concern (CAAS) and Career (QVA-r). About the racial correlation, it was observed that the variable satisfaction with the course had an influence on some of the correlations, mainly on the Concern (CAAS) and Career (QVA-r) correlation. The results suggest that it could be assumed that the adaptation process is a variable of career. Indeed, further research would be necessary with biggers and more diverse samples.
