Working together with employers to increase graduate employability

Based on the 2014 survey conducted by TalentCorp in collaboration with the World Bank, career services centres are underutilised and do not fully understand companies’ needs.

As a result, graduating students may not be aware of the full range of opportunities available to them, or fully understand the requirements from employers to position themselves competitively in the application process.

One of the ways to address this is to reach out to students through an online portal, Ready4Work.my website (www.ready4work.my).

With content from leading graduate employers, Ready4Work.my reaches out to graduating students through Gen Y driven articles, videos, infographics and podcasts.

What makes Ready4Work.my different is the collaborations with leading employers to produce insightful content with the objective of increasing employability and demand of graduates in Malaysia.
