Employability orientation of college students Employability orientation of college students K. van Dam, L. van der Zanden & Valeria Piras, Gedrag & Organisatie, volume 20, June 2007, nr. 2, pp. Based on Fugate, Kinicki and Ashforth's (2004) employability model, we investigated students' employability-oriëntation: what is their attitude toward their flexibility and availability in their study and future work situation, and how does this employability-orientation relate to intended job search behavior? Data from 109 students showed that the aspects of personal adaptability (learning orientation, core-self evaluations, and extraversion) had positive relationships with employability-orientation. And whereas career-planning showed a positive relationship, career commitment showed a negative relationship with employability-orientation. In turn, employability-orientation predicted intended job search behavior. In addition, education and work practice made a difference. The findings have theoretical and practical relevance.

Networking is often cited as a key to job-search success; however, relatively little scholarly research on networking as a job-search behavior exists. The purpose of this chapter is to review the literature on networking and its relevance for job-search success and career management more broadly. The use of networking for both obtaining new jobs at different employers as well as advancing upward in one’s current organization is considered. This chapter describes the importance of networking for developing career competencies, how networking can enhance a job seeker’s social network, and barriers faced by women and minorities in building their social networks. The multiple ways in which networking has been measured are described, along with the antecedents and outcomes of networking behavior pertinent to job seekers. This chapter discusses the implications of networking as a job-search behavior for job seekers, career counselors, and organizations and concludes with future research suggestions for scholars.

The Impact

The present research aims to explore the impact of mentoring relationship on college graduates’ job search behavior among Chinese undergraduate students by examining the mediator of job search intention and the moderator of job search self-efficacy. A two-wave survey study was conducted in China ( N = 594). Our findings show a positive indirect relation between mentoring and college graduates’ job search behaviors through job search intention. The graduates’ job search self-efficacy positively moderated the indirect relationship such that when job search self-efficacy was higher, the influence of mentoring on behavior via job search intention was stronger. These findings extend the literature by clarifying how and when mentoring facilitates graduates’ job search behaviors and provide practical implications for facilitating a smooth school-to-work transition in China. As the first study that empirically clarifies why (through job search intention) and when (job search self-efficacy) mentoring function is positively related to job search behavior among Chinese undergraduate students, the present study contributes to the existing mentoring and job search literature. Future research is encouraged to extend the findings by integrating theory of planned behavior (TPB) with self-regulation theory toward deepening current understanding of how and when mentoring can contribute to a student’s success in job search behavior.
