Abstract

Employability Skills can be defined as the transferable skills needed by an individual to make them‘employable’. Along with good technical understanding and subject knowledge, employers often outline a set of skills that they want from an employee. These skills are what they believe will equip the employee to carry out their role to the best of their ability. Employability depends on the knowledge, skills and attitudes, how one uses those assets, and how they are presented to the employers. The aim of this paper is to present an exhaustive analysis that relates to the studies and inferences drawn by various scholars who have presented their view on the issue of graduate employability.
