Abstract

Blended working arrangements provide employees with control on when and where they choose to work. Research shows that job seekers attribute greater attractiveness and preference to this type of work arrangement. However, this effect may be higher for those with certain characteristics. The present study investigates the role that the learning style reflector has on the relationship between blended working arrangements and organizational attractiveness. It analyses (1) how blended working arrangements can affect the perceived attractiveness of an organization and (2) whether this relationship is moderated by the learning style reflector. 196 students participated in an online 1 factorial design study where a manipulation of blended working arrangement was used. An RM-ANCOVA shows supporting evidence for hypothesis 1 where organizations were perceived to be more attractive to individuals when blended working arrangements are offered. Hypothesis 2 was also supported as results show that individuals who possess a higher score on the Reflector learning style rated organizations offering blended working arrangements to be more attractive compared to individuals with lower scores. Our study adds to the limited literature on the reflector learning style and potential suggestions for future research.
