This study was conducted to identify the factors influencing employee’s career development
within the organization. Based on the comprehensive literature review, the determinants of
Career Development have been broadly classified into three categories: organizational,
social and personal. Empirical investigation is conducted to test the influence on employee’s
Career Development in the social settings of Pakistan’s banking sector in Islamabad and
Rawalpindi. The organizational factors (Political Skills, Work Content, Affective Commitment
and Leader-Member Exchange), the social factors (Family & Friends Support & Peer
Support) and personal factors (Core-Self-Evaluation) along with four demographic traits
(Gender, Age, Qualification and Experience) have been taken as independent variables. The
relationship of these variables with Career Development is tested and explored. Research
items are adopted from well-established previous studies. Convenient sample design is used to
select the sample. General Linear Model is applied to test the hypothesized relationship
among the variables. Study finds that Organizational factors and social factors like Family
Support positively influence on the Career Development. Peer support is perceived to have
inverse relation with career development. Core-Self-Evaluation is found insignificant with
employee’s Career Development. Career Development perception is same across the levels of
gender and across the levels of Age. Career Development perception is found highest with
Experience category 5-10 years. This study provides a vision to employees about their Career
Development process and motivates them to focus on important dimension of Career
Development. This study enhances the existing body of knowledge by investigating
Organizational; Social and Personal factors (Scale Predictors) with a combination of
demographic traits (Qualitative Predictors). It supplements the Career Development
practices by establishing a comprehensive framework on Career Development. This study
highlights the importance of education and experience for the employees.
