Abstract

This study introduces strengths theory, a core subject of career development and job-getting, and discusses about the factors of strengths(namely talents, knowledge and skills), the processes of strengths personalization, and generating employability. It searches for opportunities to apply the concept of employability to the field of Library and Information Science now thrown under hard pressure from information and communication technology. Employability is defined here as competence to make oneself employable as needed by discovering or creating work opportunities using one's own tested personalized strengths. Employability is a package of systematically organized information about the essential abilities and productive personalities of a person, and it is essential to be duly cognitive of one's employability if one seriously intends to succeed in jobs and career. Since generation of employability heavily involves complex processes of information and knowledge-making, expertise from LIS, particularly from areas of personal information management(PIM) and personal knowledge management(PKM), is expected to help for process facilitation.

job과 work의 개념은 매우 다르다. 지식사회로의 전환은 직업시장의 성격을 job 시장에서 work 시장으로 변화시켰다. 취업력은 work시장에 더 적합하다. 다음 저서를 참고할 것: William Bridges, Jobshift : How to Prosper In A Workplace Without Jobs (Reading : Perseus Books, 1994).
