Based on the basic distinction between output-based employability (i.e. perceived employability) and input-based employability (i.e. movement capital), this brief report aimed at testing the association between perceived employability and a newer input-based conceptualization of employability, namely resource-based employability, providing further psychometric support to it. Five hundred and forty-nine Italian employees were sampled and filled both questionnaires. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to analyse responses by estimating a measurement model including both variables and testing for their correlation. The estimated measurement model showed satisfactory goodness of fit indices. In particular, the two variables correlated significantly in the expected direction. This brief report provided further psychometric support to the conceptualization of resource-based employability by showing its positive and significant association with perceived employability. These results further support the idea that resource-based employability may be used in career and vocational interventions.
