Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of organizational/job suitability and self-efficacy on the job enthusiasm of public officials to enhance the government's organizational performance and goal achievement, and to examine what mediating effects of self-efficacy have. As the subject and method of the study, a survey was conducted with 248 civil servants from three cities (P, U, Y) in Gyeonggi-do, and structural equation analysis was used for the collected surveys. As a result of the study, organizational suitability of public officials had a positive effect on job enthusiasm, and self-efficacy was found to have a partial mediating effect on organizational suitability and job enthusiasm. In the case of job suitability, job enthusiasm was not significant, and self-efficacy had a fully mediated effect. Based on the results of this study, administrative and policy implications for enhancing the enthusiasm for the job of front-line civil servants of administrative organizations were presented.
