Abstract
The challenges of modern life and human nature encourage the need to earn a living and move toward materialism, in which direction jobs are the most important means of achieving this. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to compare the clinical profile (aggression, anxiety, obsession, individual sensitivity, somatic complaints, psychosis, paranoid imagery, depression, and fear) and to compare career path profile (behavior, self-efficacy, belief and adaptability in job seekers and those waiting for job opportunities. The research method was causal-comparative. For this purpose, all job seekers registered in Najaf Abad employment centers in 1397 (2018) were considered as the target community. Of these 110 people in the center, 52 persons had already been employed and 58 were job seekers, waiting for job opportunities. Research tools included Job Path Adaptation Questionnaire (Savikas & Porfili, 2012), 20 Questions about Job Behavior (Salehi, 2005); 10 Questions about Job Behavior (Salehi, 2005); Job Beliefs Test (Salehi, 2005) and SCL-90 (Dargoyess et al., 1973). Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance and SPSS-22 software. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the two dimensions of career path in behavioral attribute and in the belief dimension (P <0.05) and there was no significant difference between self-efficacy, adaptability and job satisfaction (P <0.05). / 0 <P). Also, there was a significant difference between the two groups in the profile of individual sensitivity, depression, aggression, paranoia, and psychosis only (P <0.05). Therefore, as job seekers are expected to be exposed to traumas and mental disorders due to their inability to find opportunities, it is recommended to conduct job skills training courses and job search strategies in job centers.
