        AbstractBackground and purpose: external events such as environmental changes, technological developments, retirement policies, etc., which cause a person not to actively move in his career path, are considered job shocks. The purpose of this research is to investigate the impact of job shocks on the career development according to the mediating role of employees' job competence in Rafsanjan Municipality.Research method: The present study was conducted using cross-sectional studies and correlation method in the statistical population of 120 employees of Rafsanjan municipality. The number of samples was determined using Morgan's table of 92 people and simple random sampling method. Data collection was done through three questionnaires and PLS structural modeling was used for data analysis.Findings: The results showed that job shocks have a significant effect on the career development. Also, the components of career optimism, prosperity, and motivation to continue working have a significant impact on career development. But job transfer and career decisions do not have a significant effect on the career development. Job shocks have a significant impact on the development of career paths due to the mediating role of employees' career competence.Conclusion: Job shocks affect many jobs and work processes and create turbulence in the career of employees. By anticipating occupational shocks and having appropriate reactions, it is possible to avoid the injuries of these shocks.  Manuscript profile
