Abstract: This study focuses on newly graduated legal management students’ career development processes within the Developmental Self-Concept Theory proposed by Donald Super, particularly on three sub-stages: Crystallization, Specification, and Implementation. This research reveals how GMM clustering and descriptive statistics identify distinct patterns among these graduates when approaching early career paths. The results indicate that most graduates are at the crystallization stage, exploring different career options and beginning by identifying their interests and skills. A smaller proportion has moved to the specification and implementation stages, where they narrow down their choices of careers and apply their skills. The recommendations made by the research include increased career counseling, skill development programs, and networking at all career development phases of the graduates to enable their successful transition from the academic environment to the professional workforce.
