WHY MALAYSIAN GRADUATES HARD TO FIND A JOB?: MY POINT OF VIEW

In fact, Malaysian's education have been a lot of improvement in other types of element such as many kind of institution and programmers that student take. As we all know this institution are separated into two parts: private and public. Both of them have born many graduates. But the question is, are they were equip enough to facing the job world? Many fresh graduates are complaining that they have difficulty to get a job. Are the companies too picky or the problems rely on the graduates?Malaysian graduates fail get a job because their weakness in English. This is the fact. Almost of this graduate do not have any problem in having speaking publicly. But, what make them 'stuck' when they attending an interview are their 'unfixed' command in English. This reality is supported by Suresh Thiru, vice-president of operations at online recruitment company JobStreet.com. "The key criteria employers look for in potential hires are a good command of English, a good attitude and a strong work ethic," The fact is, thirty thousand Malaysian graduates only managed to get casual and ordinary work such as cashier and restaurant workers because their poor English proficiently.Education performance is not the main focus for the employer and they poorly equipped with the skills required by changing market and economy. From the 12 criteria listed by 115 employers surveyed in a study on unemployment conducted by the National Economic Action Council, the top three of soft skills are: good communications, being presentable and having a reasonable grasp of general knowledge. Academic performance just only came eighth. Almost 64% of the employers agree with the motion: education performance is just a package of the student. Sometimes, the job are there, but the graduates are not up to the mark and do not meet the industry's requirement for the technical skills, competence and knowledge of the specific job platform.At the certain moment, we have to look out for the Attitude, mentality and assumption of the graduate. As an example, they tend to think that if they could score the flying colour result in examination, they might have chance to have a good job. By the meaning of attitude problems is, fail in time management, their laziness in doing any extra exercise, their assumption that their involvement in club or society at their university just a wasting of time and always break a rules. When it is continuously happen, it become of some sort of their habit and after they graduates, they will 'accidentally showing' this attitude. So, no wonder, why should the prospective employers be serious about hiring them.In this new era, the graduates have to alert with any job prospect changing. Now, we are going through the 'Multitasks' era. In other word, the graduate must prepared them self with multiple capability. As an example, eventhough they are come from the engineering field, at least they know about accountancy as well. Besides, they should be something different and not to follow the crowded. Undergraduates themselves need to be aware of it.
