Abstract: | Graduates of higher education institutions, whether they are from public or private
university, have two basic problems: finding the job rewarding and developing their
career. Choosing a career, developing it and getting sufficient earnings require the
continuous effort of individuals. Individual development is a critical process whose most
powerful contributions to the organization are to do with productivity, performance,
knowledge development of society and organization progress. Its greatest benefits for
individuals are to do with personal competence, growth, adaptability and continuous
employability.
Employability of graduates would be checked as soon as they accomplish their study. At the end of long–term study higher education institutions evaluate them by asking the
three selection questions:
- What they know about employers,
- What they know themselves and their preference, and
- Their job seeking contacts to employer.

public higher education institutions with particular attention on perspective relationship
