description AbstractIn a dynamic business environment where challenges are inevitable, the success of an organization depends on the resilience demonstrated by its employees. Prior studies provide valuable information on employee resilience and its outcomes; however, there is limited knowledge of how employee resilience influences career outcomes. Drawing on Job Demands-Resources Theory, this study explores the mediating effect of job crafting on the relationship between employee resilience and career satisfaction. Also, this study examines whether smart technology, artificial intelligence, robotics, and algorithms (STARA) awareness moderates the relationship between those variables. The study sample consists of 321 individuals employed in white-collar positions within various enterprises in Turkey. Structural equation modeling was used to test the research hypotheses. The findings indicate that job crafting significantly mediates the relationship between employee resilience and career satisfaction. Additionally, STARA awareness moderates the relationship between employee resilience and job crafting, whereas there is no conditional indirect effect between employee resilience and career satisfaction. This study presents practical implications for white-collar workers' career attitudes in business environments characterized by increased digitalization.
