Full textThe problem statement to be proposed in this article is that student employability suffers as a result of the fact that students do not make use of the available employment skills training, offered by the CUT, which will enable them to present themselves in a professional manner to prospective employers when entering the labour market. Certain suggestions will be offered in this publication of how the CUT could go about creating opportunities for students to enable them to successfully enter the labour market, after the completion of their studies.

Full textThe contribution of an MBA degree on career mobility in South Africa is of importance and exhibits strong interest from academics, business and public space. Many people believe that an MBA can help for any managerial position especially in cooperate business set up in terms of upward career mobility and skills acquisition. This study wanted to find out if indeed qualifying with an MBA degree helps graduates to move upward, get better salaries and benefits and feel more skilled.This study was conducted using graduates from the Turfloop Graduate School of Leadership, University of Limpopo, who graduated between 2007 and 2011. A total of 44 participants responded. The results mainly indicated that the MBA qualification does help in helping graduates feel better capacitated and ready for managerial positions. The qualification also helps with higher positions and/or salaries. However, for candidates to realise those better positions they mostly need to move to other organisations or even other provinces.The study recommends that another study focused on more universities that offer MBA in South Africa be carried out to compare the career advancement of graduates from all these universities. Another one that focuses on the reasons why career progression is not mostly realised in organisations within which candidates worked prior to getting an MBA degree is also recommended.
Tabis, Ryan, and Jeremy Short. "A 13-year Review of Initial Employment Trends for Pharmacy Graduates of the University of Arizona." The University of Arizona, 2006. http://hdl.handle.net/10150/624604.
Full textObjectives: To gain insight into current trends in pharmacy employment directly after graduation in the areas of community, hospital, pharmacy practice residencies and to relate those findings to environmental factors within the field. Methods: An exit survey was distributed to fourth-year students at The University of Arizona College of Pharmacy (UACOP) in the spring prior to graduation during the years 1993 to 2005. Among other items, the survey inquired about each student’s initial job selection. Group I consisted of data from the graduates of 1993-1995, Group II contained graduates from 1996-2000, and Group III included data from students during the years 2001-2005. The groups were compared using the chi-square method. Results: Data were collected from a total of 688 graduating students over the thirteen year period. Groups were assigned based upon the year of graduation. The largest reported difference between the groups was the percentage of students pursuing community practice, increasing from 25% to 51.8% between the groups, respectively (p <0.0001). Additionally, a significant reduction in percentage of students pursuing residency training was also noted, decreasing between Group I (36.2%) and Group III (23.7%), with p = 0.006. There were no significant changes in the percentage of students taking hospital positions throughout the study duration. Conclusions: Over the last 13 years, the percentage of students from The University of Arizona College of Pharmacy that choose community pharmacy as their initial employment is increasing. The percentage of students starting out in hospital pharmacy has remained relatively stable, while the fraction of students choosing to pursue residency training is declining. This trend may be influenced by a variety of factors, including increased salaries in community pharmacy, more openings in the retail practice area, and increased competition for residency positions.
Beyer, L., A. C. Wilkinson, and H. S. Friedrich-Nel. "A survey of the generic graduate skills that the Central University of Technology Radiography graduates need for the world of work." Interim : Interdisciplinary Journal: Vol 9, Issue 1: Central University of Technology Free State Bloemfontein, 2010. http://hdl.handle.net/11462/340.
Full textThe issue of Generic Skills has received considerable attention over the past few years as universities, in their response to calls for accountability, need to articulate and demonstrate the achievement of these (Barrie, 2005: 1). In recent years, employers and their representatives consistently demand that their employees must possess a range of personal and intellectual attributes. These include attributes beyond those traditionally made explicit in programmes of study in higher education institutions (Harvey, 2000:7). Universities describe these graduate qualities differently, resulting in a variety of terms used to target the same attribute (Barrie, 2006:218). This diversity of descriptions prompts questions as to the extent to what stakeholders in the Radiography programme understand by the term generic graduate skills. One of the major goals was to explore what the stakeholders involved in academic and work-based learning as well as radiography students identified as generic graduate skills radiography students must obtain during their studies to prepare them adequately for the world of work. Findings from this study agreed on the importance of higher education to be informed of expectations from employees in order to respond to the need of preparing students adequately for future job tasks and contributions to society. In addition to this. the study also identified the particular generic skills stakeholders regard essential for students entering the profession.

Under the present circumstances, there are higher education expansion, a rising unemployment rate, and a gradual shrinking of labor market in Taiwan. This paper aims to explore how social connections could influence first-job achievement of recently university graduates with either less or without any working experiences. Also, this study tries to apply both human capital accumulation and social networks to explore occupational achievement of these first-job-seekers. Of both factors, that is, human capital and social networks, which one is more significant? In addition, the paper also attempts to make a comparison of job achievement of recently college graduates of both comprehensive universities and tech universities. By using the concept of “human capital and social networks,” in terms of individual competency and career preparations during their college studies, such as professional aptitude, proficiency certificates, and part time working experiences, the study attempts to explore factors that influence occupational achievement of these first fulltime-job holders. Of all these factors, which can increase a personal occupational prestige? Of both “formal” and “informal” channels, which one will be more effective for these recent university graduates who search their first-fulltime jobs? The result shows that “college prestige and degrees” impact more significantly than “social networks” for the group of recent university graduates. University majors, certificates, experiences of tutoring and interns are crucial for first job achievement among recent university graduates. A person’s occupational prestige is increased by utilizing proper “formal channels” rather than “informal channels” for these recent college graduates who search a first job. However, the weak ties hypothesis on job achievement is not proved in the study.

Following the popularization of higher education, most of the so-called beginners of the society are now coming with a college/university degree. In light of that, equipping itself with the ability to facilitate its graduates to develop their employability, to help them with future career development, and to advance the economic competitiveness of the entire nation has become a duty-bound mission for each and every college/university. Through reviewing relevant literature – both domestic and overseas – as well as interviewing the administrative staff of colleges/universities in Taiwan familiar with career development and counseling for their graduates, this study aims to establish a set of employability indicators for college/university graduates, in accordance with which the college/university students in Taiwan can then invest in their own self-development, and enhance their own employability. The research method adopted by this study consists of both theoretic investigation and empirical research. First, departing from domestic as well as overseas literature review, opinions of scholars and field specialists were introduced, the questionnaire then composed. Furthermore, The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was applied to conduct a weight analysis on all indicators, and then the “Weight System of University Graduates Employability Indicators” was established. The result of this study is shown below. 1. The 1st-level indicators include ‘Practical Work’ (49.3%), ‘Social Experience’ (33.1%), and ‘On-Campus Learning’ (19.6%). 2. The 2nd-level indicators under ‘On-Campus Learning’ include ‘Department-/Institute-Major Theoretic Knowledge’ (54.7), ‘Cross-Department/Institute Theoretic Knowledge’ (26.3%), and ‘Cross-College Theoretic Knowledge’ (19.0%). 3. The 2nd-level indicators under ‘Social Experience’ include ‘Communication Skills’ (44.3%) ‘Emotional Management’ (38.7%), and ‘Organizational Capacity’ (16.9%). 4. The 2nd-level indicators under ‘Practical Work’ include ‘Work Attitude’ (54.7%), ‘Work Experience’ (26.3%), and ‘Work Performance’ (19.0%). 5. There are 24 3rd-level indicators under all 2nd-level indicators. The top five based on the relative weight of the entire indicator set – from high to low – are ‘Work Adaptability’, ‘Work Concentration’, ‘Practical Work or Training in Specialized Fields’, and ‘Development of Own Expertise’.
