The purpose of this study was to examine predictors and mediators of Psychological Capital among university students based on their relationships with Career Resources, Employability, and Career Adaptability. Through a two-stage data collection survey, 433 Brazilian university students evaluated the research. The results indicated that individual psychological capital fosters career resources and explains the future employability perspectives of university students. Furthermore, psychological capital promotes the development of adaptability resources, and both adaptability and psychological capital contribute to the creation of career resources. Therefore, the discussion encompasses the theoretical and practical applications of constructs related to self-management in careers, proposing systematic interventions with career services for the population of students transitioning from the university to the workplace.

Keywords : recursos de carreira; capital psicológico; adaptabilidade de carreira; universitários; desenvolvimento de carreira.
