Therefore, the state needs efforts to increase the availability of job opportunities by supporting the formation of a start-up. This study aims to form a strategic model with Start-up entrepreneurship as a driver in increasing job opportunities in the Pandemic Era. This study refers data panel from GEM (Global Entrepreneurship Monitor) in 2019-2021 with 102 data from 34 countries. The testing method used is the Component-Based Structural Equation Model (CB-SEM), which shows that the Start-up Entrepreneurship variable has succeeded in becoming a total mediation variable for the relationship between Entrepreneurship Capability and Job Creation Activity and the relationship between Entrepreneurship Intention and Job Creation Activity. This study provides a body of knowledge on applying the management Labor Supply theory. The significance of the role of Entrepreneurship capability, which emphasizes a proactive attitude in creating opportunities and entrepreneurship intention through business incubation, can increase Start-up Entrepreneurship, which impacts Job Creation Activity.
