There is an intrinsic link between the success of service firms and the availability of appropriate labor resources, making employee attraction and retention a critical concern for service organizations. Effects of recruitment efforts are influenced by applicants’ subjective person-environment (P-E) fit, referring to the compatibility between an individual and a work environment. The purpose of this paper is to examine the role of employer attractiveness in the relationship between potential employees’ perceptions of P-E fit and job pursuit intentions in the service industry. This study was conducted with a group of 335 undergraduates and graduates enrolled in tourism and hospitality studies in Poznan. Data were collected through group-administered questionnaires. Research revealed that students generally did not believe that a career in the hospitality sector would fulfill their needs, rating job attributes slightly higher than organization attributes. Regression analyses showed that both person-job (P-J) fit and person-organization (P-O) fit were positively related to intentions to apply for a job, with the former being a stronger predictor. The relationship under study was fully mediated by the perceived attractiveness of hospitality employers. The findings contribute to an improved understanding of the influence of P-J and P-O fit on work-related attitudes and intentions of Generation Y prospective employees in the hospitality industry.

互补的人与环境匹配作为服务行业求职意向的预测指标

服务公司的成功与适当劳动力资源的可用性之间存在内在联系，这使得吸引和留住员工成为服务组织的一个关键问题。招聘工作的效果受申请人主观人与环境 (PE) 契合度的影响，即个人与工作环境之间的兼容性。本文的目的是检验雇主吸引力在服务行业潜在员工对 PE 契合度的感知与求职意向之间关系中的作用。这项研究是由 335 名在波兹南就读于旅游和酒店研究的本科生和研究生进行的。数据是通过小组管理的问卷收集的。研究表明，学生们普遍认为酒店行业的职业不能满足他们的需求，对工作属性的评价略高于组织属性。回归分析表明，个人-工作 (PJ) 契合度和个人-组织 (PO) 契合度都与求职意向呈正相关，前者是更强的预测因子。研究中的关系完全由酒店雇主的吸引力所调节。调查结果有助于更好地了解 PJ 和 PO 契合度对酒店业 Y 一代潜在员工与工作相关的态度和意图的影响。回归分析表明，个人-工作 (PJ) 契合度和个人-组织 (PO) 契合度都与求职意向呈正相关，前者是更强的预测因子。研究中的关系完全由酒店雇主的吸引力所调节。调查结果有助于更好地了解 PJ 和 PO 契合度对酒店业 Y 一代潜在员工与工作相关的态度和意图的影响。回归分析表明，个人-工作 (PJ) 契合度和个人-组织 (PO) 契合度都与求职意向呈正相关，前者是更强的预测因子。所研究的关系完全由酒店雇主的吸引力所调节。调查结果有助于更好地了解 PJ 和 PO 契合度对酒店业 Y 一代潜在员工与工作相关的态度和意图的影响。
