Abstract
Objectives The purpose of this study was to verify whether career adaptability and career construction behavior were double-mediated in the relationship between hope and career satisfaction of prospective college graduates using a serial multiple mediation model. It was to apply the model of career adaptation of Savicaks(2013, 2020) to college students who are about to transition from school to work.
 Methods A survey was conducted on hopes, career adaptability, career construction behavior, and career satisfaction for 260 prospective graduates of four-year universities nationwide. Data were analyzed using SPSS 27.0 and SPSS PROCESS MACRO Model 4 and 6 were used for simple mediation model and serial multiple mediation model analysis.
 Results A significant positive correlation was found between hope, career adaptability, career construction behavior, and career satisfaction. In addition, career adaptability and career construction behavior double-mediated the relationship between hope and career satisfaction. That is, the results showed that career adaptability and career construction sequentially mediate the relationship between hope and career satisfaction.
 Conclusions The research results support the career adaptation model of Savickas (2013, 2020), and examine the roles of hope, career adaptability, and career construction behavior for career satisfaction of prospective college graduates. The implications and limitations of this study are discussed.
