Özet:

The purpose of this research, which is to determine the business and career directions of high school students and to analyze according to demographic variables, is carried out in the scan model. The sample was created from 388 high school students, and the data was collected with the "Career Decision Qualification Expectation Scale" and analyzed with visual statistical techniques. The results from the analysis are as follows: Students trust themselves in the preparation stage of the business and career process. This self-confidence, variing according to the class and parent education situation, is important for the student’s career planning and employment balance in Turkey. But these students are less confident in preparing a CV, which is an important variable in the business and career process. This situation is likely due to experience and cognitive deficiency. Students are determined to set business and career goals that suit their lifestyle (more in men and high school students). But their self-confidence falls in the choice of profession. This situation may be associated with professional guidance in schools and market instability. Students rely on problems in the business and career process (more in men), but their self-confidence in the issues of potential business change and commitment to the goal falls. This may be due to the weakness of the school-industrial relationship, the student’s cognitive and emotional deficiencies. The study found that professional-technical high school students and students with a low parental level of education were more likely to be dedicated in the business and career process; that an average of two hours of internet browsing a day was considered sufficient to explore business and career opportunities.
