Abstract	This research intends to look into how students at vocational colleges in China and Indonesia choose their careers. In order to identify potential influences on students' career decisions, such as the impact of parental career behavior on students' career choice making self-efficacy, the Career choice Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form (CDSES-SF) and Parent Career Behaviors Checklist (PCBC) are utilized. This study is based on a questionnaire survey of 326 students from three vocational colleges (192 men and 134 women), with 194 of them coming from two vocational schools in China and 132 from an Indonesian vocational college that offers a 3-year curriculum. The majority of the 11 majors featured in this study are engineering-related. First, the study's findings show a substantial relationship between students' confidence in their ability to make professional decisions and their parents' job choices. Second, the results show that school year, class rank, and parental professional practices were very important indicators of students' self-efficacy in choosing career decisions. Furthermore, the study demonstrates that parental gender and educational background had no discernible influence on students' self-efficacy in making career decisions. Additionally, it reveals that there is no difference in the degree of career decision-making between students in China and Indonesia, indicating that the issue is with the parents' perceived career behavior.
