Özet:
Job satisfaction can be defined as individuals' perceptions of satisfaction towards their profession. This concept
is also considered to be important for the school counselling profession because school counsellors’ high level
of job satisfaction is assumed to have positive effects not only on them but also on their students and
accordingly on the education system. Therefore, it is thought that it is important to examine the factors that
predict job satisfaction of school counsellors. For this purpose, this study was conducted on 194 (female=145
and male=49) school counsellors in Turkey. As a result of the research, it was determined that there was a
significant positive relationship between school counsellors’ job satisfaction and professional self-esteem. In
addition, job satisfaction of school counsellors working in the private sector was found to be higher than those
working in the public sector. It was found that job satisfaction of school counsellors did not differ significantly
