The document summarizes a longitudinal study that examined the impact of occupational self-efficacy and career advancement goals on objective and subjective career success over 7 years. 734 highly educated professionals completed questionnaires immediately after graduation, 3 years later, and 7 years later. The study found that higher occupational self-efficacy at career entry was associated with higher salary and status after 3 years, higher salary change and career satisfaction after 7 years. Stronger career advancement goals at entry predicted higher salary and status after 3 years and higher status change after 7 years, but lower career satisfaction after 7 years. Women earned less than men but did not differ in status or satisfaction.
