Abstract

Enhancing the employability skills is considered as the important; the question that arises is whether India is actually creating enough jobs for its youth. For the 104.62 million fresh talents likely to enter India’s labour market by 2022, the country would need to generate 8.1 million jobs annually. Failing to this objective will only add to the country’s increasing unemployment rate that reached 6.1% in 2017-18 fiscal, despite technological developments. Through this research paper authors want to explore the role of teachers with special reference to graduate students. This paper consist concept of employability, role of teachers in employability and factors affecting employability.
