In this research, we validated the French-language version of the Protean and Boundaryless Career Attitudes Scales and then investigated relationships among protean and boundaryless career orientations, proactive personality, career adaptability, and career satisfaction. Study 1 results demonstrated acceptable psychometric proprieties for the scales using an innovative translation ( N = 49) and verification ( N = 228) method. Study 2 answered how and to what extent protean and boundaryless career orientations are related to career satisfaction in a convenient and heterogeneous sample of employees ( N = 234) in the French-speaking part of Switzerland. Correlational, regression analysis, and structural equation modeling techniques were used to test the hypotheses. Career adaptability mediated the positive relationship between protean and boundaryless career orientations and career satisfaction. These findings highlight the explanatory utility of career adaptability in relationships of protean and boundaryless career orientations to career satisfaction. Future research and career counseling implications also are discussed.

Indian Information Technology (IT) market is going through a dynamic state of existence with employment uncertainties, but simultaneously creating promising opportunities. Amidst such unpredictability and possibilities, Indian IT professionals have been striving hard to build a career identity, demonstrating their capabilities to withstand unforeseen and abrupt vocational shocks. In career construction, such capability comes from career adaptability, reflected through resources of concern, control, curiosity and confidence. Yet, attention towards career adaptability is sparse in Indian IT vocational literature. The present study attempts to fill that gap by examining career adaptability and its links with vocational attitudes of career satisfaction and turnover intention. For this, data were collected from 434 Indian IT professionals. Overall, career adaptability was positively related to career satisfaction while turnover intention was independent of it. At the dimensional level, independently, all resources of career adaptability were positively related to career satisfaction. Concern and confidence had relatively greater degree of positive association than curiosity and control. Further, concern led to increased turnover intention, other resources being unrelated to it. Findings may facilitate human resource management of Indian IT organizations and independent career practitioners to enhance the vocational success of their employees and clients.

Based on career construction theory, this study examined the relationships between career adaptability, organizational success, and individual career success with the moderating effect of career identity. Using a time-lagged survey design, we tested the proposed model on a sample of 1,652 employees from 20 Chinese companies. The results showed that career adaptability was negatively related to turnover intention but positively associated with supervisor-rated job performance, career satisfaction, and yearly income. In addition, the relationship between career adaptability and turnover intention was significantly positive for employees with low levels of career identity. Moreover, the positive relationship between career adaptability and career satisfaction was stronger for employees with high levels of career identity, and the relationship between career adaptability and yearly income was significantly positive for employees with high levels of career identity. We discuss the research implications for the development of career adaptability and career counseling.

Further, tools for career adaptability measurement and selected empirical findings about career adaptability are presented. Focus is, among other things, on the relation of career adaptability and demographical variables, personality traits, self-image, self-esteem, confidence in own abilities, professional identity, time orientation, academic success, career vocation, career satisfaction etc. Presented theoretical and empirical findings are important for career counsellors and teachers of career education, who can, based on the knowledge of career adaptability, suggest interventions reflecting specific needs of individual clients and students.

Abstract This study examined the operation of resources as a mechanism underlying the relationship between career adaptability and career satisfaction. Based on career construction theory and conservation of resources theory, we examined the interactive effects of career adaptability, career satisfaction, person–job fit, and job uncertainty. The results of two-wave data collection from 234 full-time workers revealed that employees with stronger career adaptability were more likely to report career satisfaction. The full mediating effect was found of person–job fit. Specifically, we found that career adaptability enhances person–job fit, which results in greater career satisfaction. Additional analysis revealed that job uncertainty interferes with the mediation model. We identified a new antecedent of career satisfaction (i.e., person–job fit) and revealed the functional mechanism underlying the effect of this antecedent. This study provides novel insights valuable to the field of career management.
