The Industrial Revolution 4.0 has brought significant disruption to the job market, requiring human resources to have a competitive advantage, one of which is through improving employability skills. This study aims to examine and analyze the influence of self-efficacy on employability skills in Vocational High School (SMK) students as an effort to overcome the challenge of unemployment in the digital era. Using a quantitative approach, this study involved 50 students majoring in Office Management at SMK Muhammadiyah 1 Jatinom, Klaten, as both the population and the sample through a saturation sampling technique. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire instrument, which was then analyzed using descriptive statistics and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM)-PLS. The research findings indicate that students' self-efficacy levels are in the high category, and are statistically proven to have a positive and significant influence on employability skills. In addition, further analysis indicates that future orientation plays a role as a variable that strengthens the relationship between self-efficacy and work skills. The main conclusion of this study confirms that strengthening self-confidence in vocational high school students is a crucial factor in forming adaptive work readiness, so that the integration of self-efficacy development in the vocational curriculum is highly recommended to produce graduates who are ready to compete in the global job market.
