Abstract
It was predicted that job acquisition success would be positively rela ted to (a) the level of job search behavior: (b) the degree of vocatio nal self-concept crystallization; and most strongly, (c) the combined effects (interaction) of job search behavior and vocational self-conce pt crystallization. Data from two samples supported the first predicti on, but not the latter two. Implications for practice and suggestions for future research are discussed.
