| Abstract | Purpose: This study aims to explore the key influences on the career satisfaction of Hangzhou college graduates. The conceptual framework proposes a causal relationship between variable protean career orientation, career commitment, workplace innovation, trust level, leader-member exchange level, vitality, learning, career expectations, and career satisfaction. Research design, data, and methodology: The researcher used a quantitative method (n=500) to distribute questionnaires to Zhejiang Business College graduates employed in Hangzhou. Non-probability sampling included judgmental sampling in selecting graduates within one year of graduation, quota sampling in determining the range of graduates' majors, and convenience sampling in collecting data and distributing online and offline surveys. Structural equation modeling (SEM) and validated factor analysis (CFA) were used to analyze the data, including model fit, reliability, and validity. Results: Career commitment, workplace innovation, trust level, leadership member exchange level, vitality, learning, and career expectations have a significant effect on career satisfaction, and variable protean career orientation does not affect career satisfaction. Learning greatly affected career satisfaction, followed by career commitment, leadership member exchange level, and workplace innovation. Conclusions: This study helps higher education administrators better understand the antecedents of career satisfaction among college graduates to implement better coping strategies and improve higher education services. |
