Abstract
The purpose of this study is to identify differences in job-seeking efficacy and personality five factors between participants in the college's job support program and non-participants. The survey was conducted on 382 undergraduate students from D University in North Gyeongsang Province. Also, the difference between participants and non-participants in the job support program was verified. The principal results were as follows. First, the results showed that job-seeking efficacy of participants in job support programs was higher than that of non-participants. Second, difference between participants and non-participants in the job support program. In other words, extroversion, agreeableness, and conscientiousness among the five personality traits showed that participants in the job support program were higher than non-participants, while neurology and openness were not significant. The findings of this study indicated that personality traits may affect that participants can influence whether or not they participate in job support programs, indicating the need to come up with measures to encourage non-participating groups in the job support program to participate.
