Abstract

This study aims to understand the career choices of generations Y and Z after the Pandemic Covid 19, based on Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT). A person’s career goals are influenced by the person’s cognitive variables and other variables in the environment that affect one’s career choices. Gen Y and Z are the dominant generations impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic in their working lives. This study uses a literature review approach, where literature sources are taken from various reputable journals related to career choice, the covid Pandemic, Generation Y and Generation Z, and SCCT. This study found similarities and differences in the perspectives of these two generations regarding the desired job expectations, which affect their confidence in their ability to choose a career. After the Pandemic, Generations Y and Z hope to have a job that creates flexibility, a work-life balance, and clear career development. This results from the experience of using and utilizing technology from these two generations to support their work productivity.
