Abstract: In almost half a century, competency modeling has become an important movement in Human Resource and talent management. This study aims to identify the characteristics of the research published on competency/capability modeling using bibliometric analysis. To answer the research questions, 367 journal articles were analyzed. The results showed an increasing number of publications in the most recent two decades, and there is a worldwide collaboration in advancing this field while countries such as the United States and Australia are leading. Moreover, there are two competency/capability camps. One camp focuses on individual job performance, while the other focuses on organizational core competencies and capabilities. Capabilities often co-occur with the keywords related to competitive advantage and innovation. Behavioral event interviews and Delphi are among the common methods used to design competency models. Researchers and practitioners can benefit from the findings by gaining insights into the latest trends in this field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
