Abstract

An instrument was developed to assess the career search efficacy of individuals who are interested in finding careers or jobs, changing careers or jobs, or reentering the job market. Data were obtained from a total of 192 college students. Principal components analysis of the 35-item Career Search Efficacy Scale (CSES; V. S. Solberg et al, 1991) yielded 4 factors: (1) Job Exploration, (2) Interviewing, (3) Networking, and (4) Personal Exploration Efficacy. Internal consistency for the subscales ranged from .87 to .95 indicating very good internal consistency. Convergent and discriminant validity of the CSES was also assessed. A principle component analysis indicated that the CSES converged with indices of career self-efficacy and discriminated from personality measures (e.g., assertiveness, interpersonal skills, and instrumentality).
