Core self-evaluation is considered an important factor for newcomers who interact between organizational socialization tactics towards the outputs who were investigated in this study. Primary research data obtained from the results of questionnaires distributed to respondents who previously we have set. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) supported by the AMOS 24 program is used to produce an accurate analysis of the primary data of this study. Based on the results of the analyzed data it was found that job satisfaction and work engagement of newcomers within the government sector organization in Aceh Besar District were influenced by factors of organizational socialization tactics in the organization itself. In addition, the results of the investigation data analysis also found that the core self-evaluation factor is important to be taken into account by newcomers when entering the organization that is now observed.
