Summary/Abstract: The research was concerned with a group of 188 applicants for an employment on a sales position in a sales company, which sells industrial material. The levels of predispositions are determined on a scale from 1 to 5.The predispositions are defined as Interest. Self-confidence, Readiness, Dynamics, Stability and Goals. The outcome values are acceptance and length of an employment. Two values, length of an employment up to three years and length of an employment lasting over three years,are monitored. The highest dependence for acceptance was found out at the factors Interest V=0.734, Self-confidence V=0.755 and Goals V=0.755. A high dependence was also found out at the factor Readiness. Other factors show medium dependence. The highest dependence for length of an employment was identified by the research at the factors Interest V=0.800, Self-confidence V=0.788 and Goals V=0.893. Other factors show medium dependence, except for the Readiness factor with a high dependence V=0.712.
