總結:A career is a person’s main goal in obtaining an education in the field of interest. Students who choose to major in accounting certainly want to pursue a career related to accounting. However, a student’s choice of major may not be based on the career they pursue. This research examines the effect of work environment, professional recognition, labor market considerations, financial rewards, and gender on accounting students’ career choice as professional SAP consultants. Using a purposive sampling technique, we collected 106 questionnaires from accounting alumni of Universitas Islam Indonesia with careers in the SAP/ERP field. The results showed that work environment, professional recognition, labor market considerations, financial rewards, and gender had a positive effect on accounting students’ career choices to become professional SAP consultants. The results of this research are expected to provide insights for university accounting departments and professional bodies such as SAP companies to develop strategies to achieve the desired number of SAP professional consultants in Indonesia. In addition, SAP University Alliances can use these findings as a basis for developing policies that guide universities to make SAP consulting more desirable. Copyright © 2025 GMP Press and Printing.
