The present labor market’s rapid expansion has pressured individuals to enhance their employability and achieve professional success. Therefore, individuals need to be able to adapt and flourish in the face of unforeseen employment challenges, known as career adaptability. While previous studies have established the benefits of career adaptability in the job search process, there is a lack of understanding regarding the influence of personality characteristics on the relationship between career resources and job search behavior. This study investigates the combined moderating effects of proactive personality and internal locus of control on the link between career adaptability and job search behavior, drawing on career construction theory and planned job search behavior theory. The study sample comprises 308 individuals actively seeking employment in Istanbul and Kocaeli. SPSS AMOS was used for confirmatory factor analysis, and PROCESS Macro was used to examine moderator effects. The findings demonstrated a positive relationship between career adaptability, proactive personality, internal locus of control, and job-seeking behavior. Moreover, as predicted, the combined effect of proactive personality and internal locus of control moderates the relationship between career adaptability and job search behavior, suggesting the relationship is more robust when both traits are high. These findings are essential for researchers in the field of career and job search as well as for practitioners such as career counselors or training and development specialists.

Mevcut iş piyasalarının hızla genişlemesi, bireylere kendi istihdam edilebilirliklerini artırmaları ve mesleki başarı elde edebilmeleri için baskı oluşturmaktadır. Bu nedenle, bireylerin beklenmedik kariyer zorluklarına uyum sağlama ve gelişme kapasitesine sahip olmaları kritik öneme sahiptir. Daha önceki çalışmalar, iş arama sürecinde kariyer uyumluluğunun olumlu etkilerine ilişkin bulgulara yer vermis olsa da kariyer uyumluluğu ve iş arayışı davranışları arasındaki ilişki üzerindeki kişilik özelliklerinin etkisi konusunda sınırlı sayıda çalışma bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, Kariyer İnşası Kuramı ve Planlı İş Arama Davranışı Kuramına dayanarak, proaktif kişiliğin ve iç kontrol odaklılığın kariyer uyumluluğu ve iş arama davranışları arasındaki bağlantıda düzenleyici rollerinin incelenmesi amaçlanıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini İstanbul ve Kocaeli bölgelerinde aktif olarak iş arayan 308 kişi oluşturmaktadır. SPSS AMOS doğrulayıcı faktör analizi için ve PROCESS Macro düzenleyici etkilerin incelenmesi için kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular, kariyer uyumluluğu, proaktif kişilik, iç kontrol odaklılık ve iş arama davranışları arasında pozitif yönde ilişkiler bulunduğunu göstermektedir. Ayrıca, öngörüldüğü gibi, proaktif kişiliğin ve iç kontrol odaklılığın birlikte, kariyer uyumluluğu ve iş arama davranışları arasındaki ilişkiyi düzenlediği ve her iki özellik de yüksek olduğunda ilişkilerin daha güçlü olduğunu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bu araştırmanın sonuçları kariyer ve iş arama alanındaki araştırmacılar ile kariyer danışmanları veya eğitim-geliştirme uzmanları gibi uygulayıcılar için önemlidir.
