This study aims to examine the influence of Work Ethic (X1) and Professional Ethics (X2) on Career Success (Y) among Generation Z in DKI Jakarta. Primary data were collected through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results reveal that Work Ethic has a positive and significant effect on career success, indicated by regression coefficient of 0.952, a significance value of 0.000, and a strong correlation (r = 0.677). This finding demonstrates that strong discipline, motivation, and responsibility significantly enhance Gen-Z’s readiness and performance in the workplace. Furthermore, Professional Ethics also shows a positive and significant influence, with a regression coefficient of 0.874 and a significance value of 0.000, emphasizing the essential role of integrity, accountability, fairness, and professional conduct in shaping a credible and trustworthy career foundation. The simultaneous test (F = 11.435; Sig. = 0.000) indicates that Work Ethic and Professional Ethics jointly contribute significantly to Career Success. The coefficient of determination (R² = 0.459) shows that 45.9% of the variation in career success is explained by the combined influence of these two variables, while the remaining 54.1% is affected by other external factors such as work experience, competence, and organizational environment. Overall, the study concludes that Work Ethic and Professional Ethics function as two fundamental pillars that support optimal performance and strengthen the likelihood of career advancement for Generation Z in DKI Jakarta. Strengthening both aspects is therefore crucial in preparing young professionals to meet the demands of today’s competitive and dynamic labor market
