This community service aims to explore student career maturity through structured group guidance activities. This service is focused on developing self-awareness, understanding career options, developing decision-making skills, and long-term career planning. This service method uses Participatory Action Research (PAR) involving 12 Padang State University guidance and counseling students as active participants in each stage of activity, namely diagnosis of problems and/or needs, action planning, implementation, and evaluation. The results of this research-based service explore career maturity which developed significantly in various aspects of career maturity after participating in group guidance activities. Aspects of career maturity are developing rapidly, including; self-understanding, career information, effective decision-making abilities, and more mature career planning. Apart from that, students admit that their self-confidence and readiness to face future career challenges are increasingly optimal. This service program to assist students' career maturity through group guidance is worthy of implementation.
