碩士 === 國立政治大學 === 企業管理研究所(MBA學位學程) === 105 === The purpose of this study is to explore the intentions and considerations of female managers for using executive search firm services. Using person-organization fit and person-job fit as a theoretical framework, I interviewed 8 female managers who had used executive search firm services. The findings in this study generally suggested that female managers do not perceive salary satisfaction as the first priority of career change when using an executive search firm. Furthermore, the major concern of married female managers using executive search firms for career change reflects on issues of work-family conflicts and job locations. This indicates that person-job fit and needs-supply fit have the higher weighting in female managers’ career change decisions. The practical and theoretical associations in this study are discussed.
