Work readiness of graduate students of vocational high school (SMK) can be influenced by successful learning in school and implementation of field industrial practice in business world/ industry world. One of indicators that shows work readiness of graduate students of Expertise Package of Computer Network Engineering (TKJ) in Internet Service Provider (ISP) enterprise can be seen from achievement of vocational competence, implementation of field industrial practice, and students' work interests. This research uses quantitative approach. Sampling technique that is used is proportional random sampling by 205 0f 420 students of XI grade of SMK expertise package TKJ as samples. Research data collection for implementation of field industrial practice variable, students' work interests variable, and work readiness in ISP enterprise variable done using questionnaires, while for achievement of competence network server administration skill uses score documentation. Data analysis that is used to the test hypothesis done using path analysis. The result of the research show that the entire path coefficient are significant. Alternativa hypothesis (Ha) submitted are accepted, by explanations as follow: (1) path coefficient X1 and X2 to Y simultaneously is 0,242; (2) path coefficient X1 to Y directly is 0,202; (3) path coefficient X2 to Y directly is 0,410; (4) path coefficient X1, X2 and Y to Z simultaneously is 0,172; (5) path coefficient X1 to Z directly is 0,221; (6) path coefficient X2 to Z directly is 0,152; and (7) path coefficient Y to Z directly is 0,253. Contribution of X1 to Z through Y is 0,272 and contribution of X2 to Z through Y is 0,255. Based on the research can be concluded that to increase contributions of achievement competence network server administration skill and implementation of field industrial practice to work readiness in ISP enterprise can be done by increasing students' work interests. School can improve cooperation with industry world, so after graduating from school, students do not work in field that is inappropriate withs skills they have. © 2016 Author(s).
