Due to the rapid development of science and technology, economic development has changed dramatically, resulting in the transformation of career characteristics. Individuals need to convey a higher career adaptability than ever before in order to face the rapid changes brought by development. Especially for college students in the critical period of career development, having good career adaptability is of great significance to their future career choice and development. This study conducted a cross-sectional survey of 692 engineering undergraduates at a top engineering university in China and used the data to investigate the relationship between the professional identity (professional interest, professional strength, career prospects, and professional satisfaction) and career adaptability of college students, as well as to discuss the mediating role of learning engagement in the relationship between professional identity and career adaptability. The results of the correlation analysis showed that professional identity was positively correlated with career adaptability. The mediation effect model indicated that learning engagement played a mediating role in the relationship between the professional identity and career adaptability of Chinese college students. In other words, professional identity had a direct positive impact on career adaptability, while professional identity, mediated by learning engagement, had a positive impact on career adaptability. The study recommends that colleges provide students with a more conducive academic environment and more opportunities for career practice. We also encourage educators to provide more emotional support and identity for students to enhance students’ career adaptability by creating a favorable academic and emotional atmosphere.

This study aimed to examine the effects of a career construction theory‐oriented Career Adaptability Psycho‐educational Programme on career adaptability and coping with career indecision in Turkish high school students. Twenty‐six participants took part in the experimental design. A split‐plot (mixed) design of 2 × 3 (experimental/control groups X pretest/posttest/follow‐up test) was used. It was found that the Career Adaptability Psycho‐educational Programme has a significant effect on coping with career indecision and career adaptability; the same effect was found for the follow‐up measures completed 4 months later.

“…Control variables: Based on previous studies, gender, age, and education have been found to influence individual career adaptability ( Guan et al, 2013 ; Cai et al, 2015 ). In addition, students’ place of origin also has an impact on career development and job resilience ( Garriott, 2020 ; Kim and Smith, 2021 ). To more accurately validate the model, gender, age, grade, and birthplace were measured as control variables in this study.…”

Faced with tremendous employment pressure, how to enhance effective career exploration and career adaptability is crucial for college students’ career. This study uses self-assessed data from 840 undergraduate students at three time points to reveal the formation mechanism of career adaptability from a dual perspective of teacher support and students’ effective part-time behavior. In particular, the mediating role of career exploration is introduced based on self-regulation theory, and the moderating role of teacher support and students’ effective part-time work is introduced based on social cognitive career theory. The results show that (1) Future work self-salience positively influences career adaptability; (2) future work self-salience indirectly influences career adaptability through career exploration; (3) both teacher support and students’ effective part-time behavior positively moderate the indirect relationship between future work self-salience and career adaptability through career exploration. This study attempts to provide practical guidance for college graduates to engage in career exploration and career construction.
