Based on social cognition, self-efficacy and ternary interaction theories, as well as combining with data mining technique, this paper studies the influence factors of employment and entrepreneurship of ex-college soldiers. Detailed analysis indicates that entrepreneurial self-efficacy has a significant positive effect on entrepreneurial behaviour, and external environmental factors such as external support and entrepreneurial education have a significant positive effect on entrepreneurial cognition. In addition, entrepreneurial cognition has a significant positive effect on entrepreneurial behaviour. In conclusion, there are significant differences of entrepreneurial experience, business experience and family income on entrepreneurial behaviour.
