Abstract

This study examines whether or not employees' willingness to exert high level of work effort mediates the correlation of self-efficacy and career satisfaction. Another intention is to find if there exist gender differences in self-efficacy, career satisfaction, and work effort. Data were collected from 422 female and male employees of various Russian organizations. The research findings support the idea that employees' willingness to exert a high level of work effort partially mediates the correlation between self-efficacy and career satisfaction. There are also significant gender differences when measuring variables of interest. The article examines the theoretical consequences and suggests recommendations for the future research.
