SKILLS EXPECTED AMONG THE FRESH GRADUATES BY THE RECRUITERS OF MANUFACTURING AND SERVICE INDUSTRY IN PRIVATE SECTOR IN TAMIL NADU

Abstract

A important element in landing a job is education. It is a difficult challenge for all students to transition from the level of a student to the level of an employee. Many pupils struggle to acquire the admittance, while a select number are successful simply. There are several reasons why a person could be unable to go on to the next level. Skills for employment are a significant factor. Employability is envisioned as a type of job-specific ability that enables workers to recognize and seize career chances. Confusion arises as a result of the variety of definitions that exist and the employability skill scenarios in which they are applied. The phrases "hard talents" and "soft skills" have evolved over time to describe the qualities and abilities required for success in managerial roles. Interpersonal, communication, listening, self-development, interaction, leadership, and organizational abilities are the main categories for classifying soft skills. Numerous authors have written about the skill sets needed by individuals in various job environments. Job, aptitude, soft, and technical skills (JAST) are the four main skills that the researcher identified and focused on for this study. The researcher has selected the key topics and their relevance to the current study on the basis of the various reviews. The failure to pass the interview is due to a combination of employability skills, including job skills, aptitude skills, soft skills, and technical skills, in addition to the candidates' lack of academic preparation. Employers in both the manufacturing and service industries do not need the same set of abilities from recent graduates.

 The study's objectives included measuring the level of expectations for employability skills among recruiters in the manufacturing and service sectors, as well as estimating the employability skills that recent graduates actually possessed in the eyes of those recruiters. According to both manufacturing and service sector recruiters, recent graduates exhibit these qualities. For his investigation, the researcher has employed an exploratory research design. For this study, secondary data were both gathered and utilised. through the 25 subskills into four dimensions: job (eight skills), aptitude (six skills), soft (nine skills), and technical (two skills) (JAST).
