Anggota organisasi yang engaged dengan pekerjaanya akan terus termotivasi, resilien dalam menghadapi masalah, dan mencurahkan energinya untuk bekerja sehingga akan berdampak pada performa organisasi secara keseluruhan. Namun, work engagement menjadi isu yang krusial ketika organisasi dan dunia kerja mulai bertransformasi ke arah virtual sejak pandemi muncul tiga tahun lalu. Penelitian ini akan mengeksplorasi peran trait kepribadian big five terhadap work engagement pada anggota organisasi kemahasiswaan. Partisipan merupakan anggota organisasi kemahasiswaan di lingkungan Universitas Gadjah Mada periode 2020-2022 (n=166). Pengukuran work engagement menggunakan skala Utrecht Work Engagement Scale-9 (UWES-9) dan kepribadian big five menggunakan skala Big Five Inventory-44 (BFI-44) dilakukan dengan metode survei daring. Hasil analisis regresi linear berganda menunjukkan bahwa trait kepribadian secara simultan memiliki peran yang signifikan terhadap work engagement sebesar 18,6%. Sementara itu, hanya trait extraversion yang secara signifikan berperan positif terhadap work engagement.
