Abstract Based on the theory of resource conservation, this study defined the connotation of cross-border diverse selection, explored the mechanism of its effect on individual creativity through the mediation of job crafting, and investigated the boundary condition role of proof goal orientation through the multi-time point tracking of 1048 effective samples from all over the country. According to the positive analysis, this study got the following conclusions. Firstly, cross-border diverse selection has a significant positive impact on individual creativity. Secondly, job crafting has a partial intermediary role between cross-border diverse selection and individual creativity. Thirdly, proof goal orientation negatively moderates the direct impact of cross-border diverse selection on job crafting and individual creativity. The higher the level of proof goal orientation, the weaker the direct effect of cross-border diverse selection on job crafting and individual creativity. Finally, proof goal orientation negatively moderates the indirect effect of cross-border diverse selection on individual creativity through job crafting. The higher the level of proof goal orientation, the weaker the indirect effect of cross-border diverse selection on individual creativity through job crafting.
