It's All About CareerSKILLS: Effectiveness of a Career Development Intervention for Young Employees
研究检验了CareerSKILLS项目对年轻员工职业自我管理和幸福感的效果，发现参与者在六项职业能力、自我效能、抗挫折能力、职业行为、就业能力和工作投入上均有提升。
The aim of our study was to investigate the effectiveness of the CareerSKILLS program, a career development intervention based on career competencies and the JOBS methodology, which aims to stimulate career self‐management and well‐being of young employees. In a quasi‐randomized control trial, the effects of the program were tested in a homogeneous sample of young employees with intermediate vocational education ( N intervention = 112, N non‐intervention = 61) and in a heterogeneous sample of employees from a special reintegration program ( N intervention = 71, N non‐intervention = 41). Our results support the effectiveness of the intervention: participants of the CareerSKILLS program, versus a control group, showed increases in six career competencies (reflection of motivation, reflection on qualities, networking, self‐profiling, work exploration, and career control), self‐efficacy, resilience against setbacks, career‐related behaviors, perceived employability, and work engagement. These results provide empirical support for the effectiveness of the CareerSKILLS program. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
