This research is motivated by the fact that there are still students who are unsure and confused about themselves in making decisions, especially on career choices. Confusion and uncertainty make it difficult for students to determine careers. This study aims to describe: (1) students' advanced career choices after graduating from high school to choose further education or work, (2) the level of self-efficacy of students who will complete high school to go to further education or work, and (3) find a relationship between self-efficacy with high school student career choices. This research uses a quantitative approach with correlational research type. The population of this study were students of class XII SMAN 14 Padang and the sample was 150 students. The instrument used was a scaled questionnaire which was analyzed using the percentage scale technique and the relationship between the two variables was analyzed using the Pearson Product Moment Correlation technique. The results showed that (1) the level of self-efficacy of students in the high category with an average percentage achievement score of 78.4%, (2) the career choice ability of students are in the high category with an average percentage score of 79%, (3) there is a significant positive relationship between self-efficacy and career choices of students with a correlation value of 0.446 at the 99% significance level. Thus it can be interpreted that the higher the student's self-efficacy, the higher the career choice ability for students and vice versa.
