Behavioual intentions broadly capture the motivation to complete a behjaviour. Greater intention predicts that there is a greater chance of behaviour being performed and with greater intensity, intentions are predicted by;- subjective norms (how people closest feel)- attitude towards behaviourJob search efficacyBelief that one can successfully complete job search
