Abstract
This study aims to investigate the effect of college students' major satisfaction on career decision-making self-efficacy and job confidence. The research method was used for analysis by surveying 335 two-year college students majoring in beauty in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do. The collected data were analyzed for frequency analysis, factor analysis, reliability analysis, and correlation between career decision-making self-efficacy and job confidence using SPSS 26.0, and multiple regression analysis was conducted to confirm the effect between each variable. As a result of the study, first, a statistically significant positive (+) correlation between college students' major satisfaction was confirmed between career decision-making self-efficacy and job confidence. Second, as the effect of major satisfaction on self-efficacy, statistically significant effects were confirmed in self-evaluation, problem-solving, and goal selection. Fifth, it was confirmed that major satisfaction had a statistically significant effect on job confidence. Fourth, it was confirmed that career decision-making self-efficacy had a statistically significant effect on job confidence.
