A Study on the Effect of Individual Career Development Activity on the Career Satisfaction

Abstract

This study is to suggest implications for individual career development activities.The questionnaire was distributed and collected among 305 people who have had more than one career development activity. The collected data verified the adequacy of the structural equation modeling and its cause-and-effect relationship to each concept.Social networks, hobbies, and acquiring the certificates do not show any significant relationship to career development, but achievement has a significant effect on it. It was found that two jobs have a significant effect on both career development and sense of achievement. It said that career development and sense of achievement have a significant effect on career satisfaction. Since career development and sense of achievement both effect career satisfaction while social networks, hobbies, and acquiring the certificates have a significant impact only on sense of achievement, the main implication of this study is that, by linking the above variables to career development, it is necessary to strengthen the compensation system and support measures that can induce career development in order to improve career satisfaction ultimately. It gives directions to those who want to develop activities..
