Employability and Career Success: The Need for Comprehensive Definitions of Career Success

Deborah A. Olson and Kenneth S. Shultz

Industrial and Organizational Psychology, 2013, vol. 6, issue 1, 17-20

Abstract: In their focal article, Hogan, Chamorro-Premuzic, and Kaiser (2013) define career success objectively “in terms of occupational prestige and financial attainment.” However, it is clear from the careers literature that workers in early, mid, and late career are likely to define both subjective and objective career success differently (Wang, Olson, & Shultz, 2013). Therefore, we recommend an expanded definition of career success that includes both subjective and objective measures when exploring the relationship between employability and career success across individuals' careers.
