| 總結: | Industry is expecting a “finished product” who able to display a well-rounded skills
to adapt to constant changes. However, many graduates are struggling with the
shift from school. This thesis is aimed at examining the influence of personal
resources on career adaptability in terms of concern, control, curiosity and
confidence among university undergraduates. Based on the reviewed literature,
three possible predictors of career adaptability are identified for further
investigation, namely emotional intelligence, self-esteem and career self-efficacy.
Correlation research design was used in this study. A set of self-reported
structured questionnaire was deployed for data collection through direct
administration of the instrument among the final year undergraduates’ students
(n=205). The results were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential
statistics based on the study’s research questions and research hypothesis. The
findings indicated that there was a significant correlation between emotional
intelligence, self-esteem, career self-efficacy, and career adaptability among
undergraduates. The findings also showed that emotional intelligence, selfesteem
and career self-efficacy among final year undergraduates in public
university are important predictors of career adaptability. The most significant
predictor in this study on career adaptability was career self-efficacy. The results
of this study would assist stakeholders in the development of undergraduates’
personal resources to improve undergraduates’ career adaptability. |
