Career Interest, Welfare Perception, Career Last Resort, Teaching Profession.Abstract
The teaching profession in Indonesia is currently facing the challenge of declining interest and attractiveness among the younger generation, leading some education students to view teaching as a career last resort. This study aims to examine the influence of career interest and welfare perception on the positioning of the teaching profession as a career last resort among students of the Office Administration Education Study Program at Universitas Negeri Semarang. This study employed a quantitative approach, with career interest and welfare perception as the independent variables and the positioning of the teaching profession as a career last resort as the dependent variable. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed through multiple linear regression. The study population consisted of 121 students from the 2022 cohort, with a sample of 93 respondents selected using simple random sampling. The results indicate that, partially, career interest and welfare perception do not have a significant effect on the positioning of the teaching profession as a career last resort. However, simultaneously, both variables have a significant effect on the positioning of the teaching profession as a career last resort. These findings suggest that students' decisions to regard the teaching profession as a career last resort constitute a complex process influenced by the interaction of various internal and external factors. Therefore, comprehensive efforts are needed to enhance the attractiveness of the teaching profession.
