This research examines how self-efficacy, work motivation, and training influence the work readiness of Generation Z students in Cirebon. The objective is to determine the factors affecting students' readiness for employment, particularly considering the increasing unemployment rates. Utilising a quantitative research method, the study involved a sample of students from six universities in Cirebon, selected through purposive sampling with a margin of error of 5%. Data were analysed with SmartPLS 3 software to develop the structural model and examine the relationships among the variables. Using the t statistic method in hypothesis testing, the results of the three independent variables have a significant effect on work readiness and simultaneously have a significant effect on work readiness using the original sample. The findings highlight the necessity of integrating these three independent variables in higher education to better prepare students for the challenges they will face in the workforce.References
