The current socioeconomic landscape, marked by rapid development and increasing numbers of university graduates, presents a highly competitive labor market in Vietnam. This context underscores the critical importance of understanding the job seeking ability of young professionals. New graduates often face significant challenges, including a lack of practical experience and underdeveloped soft skills, which can hinder their integration into the workforce. This research addresses this pertinent issue by focusing on identifying the key influencing factors that impact the employment prospects of alumni from the University of Labor and Social Affairs (Campus II). The study aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of these factors and lay the groundwork for developing effective strategies to enhance graduate employability.

Sinh viên, cựu sinh viên, cán bộ giảng viên, nhà quản lý giáo dục, nhà hoạch định chính sách, và các nhà tuyển dụng quan tâm đến vấn đề việc làm của sinh viên tại Việt Nam.

This academic study comprehensively examines the influencing factors affecting the job seeking ability of alumni from the University of Labor and Social Affairs (Campus II), specifically focusing on graduates from the 2017 and 2018 cohorts across various disciplines including Insurance, Human Resources Management, Business Administration, Social Work, Economic Law, and Accounting. Facing an increasingly demanding labor market, understanding the nuances of graduate employment is paramount. The research employs a mixed-methods approach, synthesizing existing literature on labor market dynamics and graduate employability with empirical data collected through surveys of the target alumni group. Key areas of investigation include the impact of demographic factors like gender, the significance of academic performance (type of graduation), the crucial role of soft skills in securing employment, and the influence of social relationships and networks. Furthermore, the study delves into the responsiveness to market demand and the expectations of employers. The findings are structured into three main chapters: theoretical foundations, empirical analysis of identified factors, and a set of practical recommendations. These recommendations are tailored for students, the university administration, and prospective employers, aiming to equip future graduates with enhanced job-seeking capabilities and better bridge the gap between academic training and industry requirements. The ultimate value lies in offering actionable insights for improving curriculum design, career guidance services, and fostering stronger linkages with the employment sector.
