| Sumario: | Changes in the contemporary world of work require workers to develop socioemotional competencies, career adaptability, and employability. The literature shows evidence of the relation between these two variables. This study aimed to assess possible correlations between the following variables in university students: socioemotional competencies, career adaptability, and employability. The sample consisted of 273 higher education trainees (aged 18-54 years, average 25). Data were collected online via Google Forms using four instruments: the SENNA Inventory for the Assessment of Social and Emotional Skills, the Self-Perceived Employability Scale, the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale, and an Identification Questionnaire. In general, significant and positive correlations occurred between socioemotional competencies, career adaptability, and employability, except for friendship and self-management, engagement with others and emotional regulation, maintaining current employment, and friendship and self-management. These results have relevant implications for research and career counseling. |
