Abstract: This research aims to explore the impact of growth mindset on university counselors’ career resilience, as well as the mediating role of perceived social support and the moderating role of belief in social mobility. Employing a questionnaire survey methodology, this research utilized convenience sampling to select counselors from comprehensive undergraduate institutions in Zhejiang Province, China. The Career Resilience Scale, Growth Mindset Scale, Beliefs About Social Mobility Scale, and Perceived Social Support Scale were used as research instruments, with 576 counselors from universities in Zhejiang, China participating in the study. The results showed that growth mindset of university counselors had a significant positive impact on perceived social support and career resilience; perceived social support had a significant positive impact on career resilience; perceived social support played a partial mediating role between university counselors’ growth mindset and career resilience; and beliefs about social mobility played a partial mediating role between university counselors’ growth mindset and career resilience. This study verified the roles of growth mindset, perceived social support, and beliefs about social mobility in university counselors’ career resilience, providing a scientific theoretical basis for universities to enrich management models and maintain the stability of the university counselor team.
