The Transpiring Journey of Career Success in Human Resource Management: A Systematic Review of the past decade

Abstract

The motive of this paper is to provide a systematic literature review to study diverse aspects of career success and identify various comprehensive definitions of career success. The recent studies on both objective and subjective career success are discussed in the paper. Furthermore, the paper comprehends basic issues that future research can focus on. Every employee working in an organisation aspires to some landmarks to achieve success. Career success can be based on achieving a reasonable level of career satisfaction. Most research includes two aspects of career success: Subjective and Objective. The objective aspect of career success is related to attaining success in the form of Salary and Promotion. In contrast, Subjective Career success is related to the individual evaluation of success based on an individual desire for accomplishment and accumulation.
