Abstract

This research delved into the perceived significance of the alignment between individuals and their jobs, as well as the alignment between individuals and their organizations, concerning proactive behavior and career development within the context of civil servants in Indonesia. A quantitative investigation was subsequently conducted to explore how individuals perceive the fit between themselves and their jobs (PJ fit), the fit between themselves and their organizations (PO fit), their proactive behavior, and their career development. A total of 76 civil servants from the Gorontalo Province office were chosen as study participants using a census sampling method. Primary data were collected through a questionnaire administered directly to the participants and assessed using a 5-point Likert scale. The results obtained from the analysis using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) confirmed that all the relationships under scrutiny had a positive and significant impact. This paper offers both theoretical and practical contributions by presenting an initial model of PJ and PO fit for state organizations within the Indonesian context. Furthermore, the study discusses the implications and potential future research directions.
