Description: This study examines the mediating role of perceived future employability in the relationship between university students’ hope and subjective well‐being. The study explores how students’ hopeful thinking contributes to their well‐being, particularly through their perceptions about future employability. Findings from a sample of 379 undergraduates indicate positive correlations between hope, subjective well‐being, and perceived future employability. Furthermore, results show that perceived future employability partially mediates the relationship between hope and subjective well‐being, suggesting that students with stronger career confidence experience greater well‐being. These findings highlight the importance of enhancing hope and perceived employability to support students’ psychological well‐being, offering valuable insights for career counselors and higher education policymakers in Türkiye.
