Abstract

This study investigates how Career Development and Job Satisfaction influence Work Engagement among Civil Servants at the Pontianak City Personnel and Human Resources Development Agency. The study used a quantitative associative approach, with 46 respondents selected through a total sampling technique. Questionnaires and interviews served as the primary sources of data, which were then processed through multiple linear regression. The resulting model was expressed as Y = 1.854 + 0.245X₁ + 0.281X₂. The results indicate that Career Development and Job Satisfaction have a moderate relationship with Work Engagement. This relationship was indicated by an R value of 0.530, while the R² value of 0.280 showed the proportion of variation explained by the two variables. The results of the simultaneous analysis showed a significant effect of Career Development and Job Satisfaction on Work Engagement. When examined individually, Career Development and Job Satisfaction each demonstrate a positive and significant effect on the Work Engagement of Civil Servants at the Personnel and Human Resources Development Agency of Pontianak.
