The approach in this study uses the theory of resource conservation (COR) to explain individual behavior based on future needs in obtaining and maintaining resources derived from self and social in achieving goals that are valued personally. The research method used is quantitative. Respondents in this study with a total of 295 people. There are three measuring instruments used in this study, namely the Subjective Career Success Inventory (SCSI) for subjective career success variables. One of the dimensions of the measuring instrument multidimensional Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PCQ) for the optimism variable and The Job Crafting Questionnaire for the job crafting variable. The analysis used is Hayes to see the mediating relationship between job crafting and optimism on subjective career success. The results in this study indicate that the influence of job crafting partially mediates the relationship between optimism and subjective career success.
