The moderating role of person-job fit in the effect of human capital, training practices and national cultural values on perceived employability: hierarchical linear model estimations

	Model I I need further training to cope well with my duties N = 3,220				Model II My present skills correspond well with my duties N = 13,527				Model III I have the skills to cope with more demanding duties N = 6,978
