This study aims to determine the effect of Field Work Practice (PKL) and Career Planning on the Job Readiness of grade XII students at SMKN 31 Jakarta. The research employed a quantitative method with a survey approach. The population consisted of all grade XII students of SMKN 31 Jakarta, and a saturated sampling technique was applied so that the entire population became the research sample. Data were collected through questionnaires using a Likert scale and analyzed using validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination with the assistance of IBM SPSS. The results indicate that Field Work Practice has a positive and significant effect on Job Readiness, with a t-value of 9.967 and a significance value of 0.000 (<0.05). Career Planning also has a positive and significant effect on Job Readiness, with a t-value of 8.318 and a significance value of 0.000 (<0.05). Simultaneously, Field Work Practice and Career Planning significantly influence Job Readiness, as indicated by an F-value of 88.543 and a significance value of 0.000 (<0.05). The regression equation obtained was Y = -1.782 + 0.638X₁ + 0.450X₂. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.571 shows that both variables contribute 57.1% to Job Readiness, while 42.9% is influenced by other factors. The findings suggest that better implementation of PKL and more mature Career Planning are associated with higher levels of student Job Readiness.
