INDIVIDUAL DIMENSIONS OF CANDIDATE–POSITION COMPATIBILITY: A LITERATURE REVIEW
This study examines candidate–position compatibility and its link to reskilling potential through a conceptual model that distinguishes individual factors (competencies, motivation, prior experience, interpersonal skills) and organizational influences. Using a structured literature review (2000–2025, 35 sources), the paper focuses on individual-level inputs. Findings highlight that competencies—framed by EU and global models—provide systemic foundations for suitability and adaptability. Workplace motivation, particularly intrinsic drivers (autonomy, competence, relatedness), predicts long-term employability. Prior experience accelerates integration when relevant, but diverse careers enhance adaptability and creativity. Interpersonal skills, especially emotional intelligence, consistently outweigh technical knowledge in predicting integration, performance, and commitment. Overall, adaptability, lifelong learning, and transversal skills emerge as key predictors of future success, forming the basis for an evaluation system to assess fit, reskilling needs, or rejection.
