In recent years, no matter in industry field or in academic research field, engagement research is in full swing, because engagement has been proved to be a good indicator to predict business performance, far more than satisfaction degrees. Through measuring the degree of engagement, we can know about the business situation of enterprises, employees’ working conditions, and thus work out the right management strategies to motivate employees, maximum staff autonomy and positive nature to create the greatest benefit for the enterprise. There are many factors affecting the engagement, such as salary, working conditions, job characteristics, customer respect, and so will interfere with employees’ cognition for their own positions, and thus determine the extent to throw themselves into work and organization, and this degree is the level of engagement. Overall, engagement is controlled by the interaction between person and working environment. Specifically, this affect is divided into the interaction between "person and job" and the interaction between "people and organization". One of the studies carried out in this article is to explore the degree of influence of the interaction between job and engagement. And the studies choose leader-member exchange (LMX) as an adjustment to explain the role among job and engagement, which also fill the blank that LMX as the manipulated variable. The ultimate goal is to declare whether person-job fit has impact on engagement, and the LMX plays a regulating effectAfter the literature review, formulating hypotheses; then conducted a survey of the use of the scientific method, the sample of278employees of the real estate companies in the country; and the use of SPSS16.0statistical software for data analysis, by scientific method examined the seven assumptions of this study.
