Abstrak

This study examines the effect of personality on employee performance with job fit as a mediating variable, based on John Holland's Self-Directed Search (SDS) theory. Using a quantitative-explanatory approach, the research measures personality through the RIASEC model and analyzes how job fit aligns individual traits with work demands. The results suggest that personality traits significantly influence performance, especially when there is a high level of job fit. The study contributes to improving recruitment, placement, and performance evaluation strategies by emphasizing the importance of personality-job alignment
