Kontribusi Planned Happenstance Skills terhadap Perilaku Eksplorasi Karier Siswa Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan: Peran Mediasi Career Decision Self-Efficacy

Abstract

Career exploration is the acquisition of career information that results in the formation of career maturity. This study aims to explain the role of internal factors that drive career exploration behavior. Specifically, the study examines the role of career decision self-efficacy in mediating the effect of planned happenstance skills on career exploration behavior. The study applied correlational design with regression analysis. 414 male and 394 female students from vocational high schools in Jakarta were chosen purposively to participate in the study. The Career Exploration Survey, The Planned Happenstance Skill Inventory, and The Career Decision Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form were used to collect research data. The results show that the effect of planned happenstance skills on student career exploration behavior was partially mediated by career decision self-efficacy. This indicates that the development of the ability to take advantage of certain events can form career related behaviors. Based on the results, it is recommended for school counselors to train students with planned happenstance skills while conducting career counseling in order to develop their career readiness optimally.

“…Career exploration is defined as a way to gather information about oneself and one's environment (Ramdhan & Salim, 2020), with the aim of helping individual career development (Porfeli & Lee, 2012). Career exploration can be divided into self-exploration and environmental-exploration (Greenhaus et al, 2018;Jiang et al, 2019).…”

Planned Happenstance Dalam Perencanaan Dan Pengambilan Keputusan Karir

“…Menurut Pryor & Bright dalam (Ramdhan & Salim, 2020) untuk mengatasi kejadian-kejadian tidak terduga dan mengubahnya menjadi kesempatan yang menguntungkan bagi diri seseorang, diperlukan sebuah strategi. Strategi tersebut bertujuan agar planned happenstance dikuasai dengan baik, maka seorang individu harus memiliki kemampuan atau skill untuk menangkap peluang dari kejadian yang tidak terduga tersebut.…”

“…Perubahan-perubahan dan ketidakpastian ini, menyebabkan proses perencanaan karir menjadi tidak terarah dan akan berimbas kepada pola karir dimasa depan. Selain itu, menurut Modestino dalam (Ramdhan & Salim, 2020) kekurangan wawasan dan informasi terhadap dunia kerja akan menjadi suatu permasalahan dalam proses pencarian dan pengembangan karier seorang individu karena berkaitan dengan bagaimana ia dapat mengenali diri atau lingkungan di sekitarnya. Pengenalan terhadap hal apa saja yang dapat digunakan sebagai "kesempatan" dalam menghadapi dunia kerja akan berpengaruh dalam proses memilih karier yang diinginkannya.…”

Profile of Planned Happenstance of Student Skills Based on Gender, Age, Regional, and Ethnicity

“…Various changes and uncertainties have caused the student career planning process to become undirected and impact future career patterns. According to (Ramdhan & Salim, 2020), a lack of insight and information about the world of work will be a problem in seeking and developing an individual's career because it relates to how to recognize oneself and the environment around it. Based on this, it is necessary to study more deeply about student profiles related to the ability to use opportunities in life and career planning because an introduction to what things can be used as "opportunities" in facing the world of work will affect the process of choosing the career he wants.…”
