Description

Employability is now being regarded as an essential part to human resource recruitment into workforce, in particular, for those students in higher education. Even core competency occupied an important and pivotal role since almost past half century ago. In the meanwhile, evidence-based training and outcome-based learning by problem/practice play another dominant mechanism to mediate the skills into the best practice fields within civil societies increasingly worldwide. Employability is thus composed of acquisition, retain, and promotion after the well trained higher education. The necessary requirements of professional employability such as knowledge, skills and attitudes should be learned, practiced and internalized as personal characteristics and professional qualification as well. Workfare and welfare are therefore accompanied with each other in a pension as well as compensation system for the mature students. Amongst the universities in higher education systems, employability should be taken as a primary and mandatory core issue to national socioeconomic prosperity and sustainability of population policy. Nevertheless, the recent fertility rate of Taiwan is still kept as a low and undesirable figure, and even the youth livelihood has never been satisfied due to low employment rate and undesirable payment. This empirical study aimed to disclose the mysterious relationship between soft skills as employability importance comparison across workforce recruiters and university students, and also, the employability capability multiplied by importance and proficiency hierarchically multiple regressed with employability readiness, service learning and background demographics. However, the expected and accepted core competencies of soft skills as employability would be explored and discussed firstly. The discrepancy between recruitment staffs and students were compared and resorted for their causes and results, education and training as well as best practices are also linked to the job fields resulted from the data collected and analyzed through students' responding data from university laureate with the honor of teaching excellence Cum Laud e groups.
