Career Decidedness Scale which consists of 6 items and one sub-dimension and adapted to Turkish by Akçakanat and Uzunbacak (2019) was use as the instrument tool. As a result it was determined that the career decidedness level of the participating students was moderate. In addition, it was found that the level of decidedness of male participants was higher than females. Also, a positive correlation was found between the participants' age and work experience parameter and career decidedness.
