This study addresses the issue of Indonesian migrant workers (TKI) whose characteristics do not match the jobs assigned abroad, often leading to complaints from agencies and companies. This mismatch is caused by incorrect job placements and insufficient training, which prompts TKI to leave their assigned jobs. The research aims to better understand the characteristics of TKI that influence successful job placement. The **apriori** method was used to identify patterns and relationships between TKI characteristics, destination countries, and suitable job types. Based on a 30% minimum support, 3 and 4 itemset combinations were produced, showing correlations between TKI characteristics and job positions. Using lowerboundminsupport 0.001 and minmetric 0.1, this study generated 6 itemsets from 13 data points, providing significant correlations between TKI characteristics and more accurate job placements.
