摘要：The current study aimed to test the relationships among job search (JS) self-efficacy, JS intentions and resilience from integrating theory of planned behavior (TPB) and social cognitive model of career self-management (CSM). Specifically, the study focused on the impact of one personality characteristic (e.g. resilience) on the relationship between JS self-efficacy and intentions. With a sample of 301 Southeast Asian students who are currently studying in Taiwan, we found that JS self-efficacy greatly predicted JS intentions. Simultaneously, JS self-efficacy has a partial mediating effect on the correlation between JS intentions and resilience. Therefore, the impact of the personality characteristic on JS intentions is direct and also indirect through JS self-efficacy. The results provide practical insights in improving self-efficacy and intentions among graduating job seekers and how to enhance their resilience levels during JS process.
