With the influencing of the boundaryless career, there is an increasing number of researchers who can focus on subjective career success. In the hotel and catering industry, the problem of narrow career path, limited opportunities and slow career development may cause employees difficult to achieve their career success. Therefore, this research will explore the influence factors of subjective career success, and the differences of individual level, in order to provide some suggestions for the employees who are working in hotel and catering industry.

This research utilised quantitative research method to explore the differences of career success on individual level, and the influence factors of subjective career success. This research collected data was by using self-administered questionnaires. There were 234 respondents from hotel and catering industry in China and analysed with the SPSS software. For the difference of career success on individual level, this research found that, there were significant differences in perceived career success among different age groups. However, there were no significant differences of career success on different marital status groups, different education level groups and different work experience. For the influence factor of career success, this research found that there was a positively correlation between subjective career success and work-family conflict. In addition, there was a positively correlation between subjective career success and organisational influence factor. Meanwhile, the most interesting finding was that the stereotype of female can be positively correlated with female’s career success.
