MODUL 5 : PEMBANGUNAN KERJAYA PENGENALAN

Modul Pembangunan Kerjaya ( Finishing School ) disediakan sebagai panduan dalam mengendalikan latihan kepada pelajar UiTM pringkat ijazah untuk mempersiapkan diri mereka dengan persediaan dunia kerjaya. Modul ini menggarap tajuk-tajuk seperti ‘Rebranding and Employer’s expectation on graduates’, ‘Knowing Yourself’, ‘Branding Yours elf’, ‘Resume and Cover Letter’ dan ‘Job Interview’. Isu-isu ini sangat asas dan perlu dikuasai bagi bakal graduan dalam proses mencari pekerjaan terutama dalam situasi persaingan yang amat kompetetif.

Walaupun tajuk-tajuk ini pernah disentuh semasa peringkat modul diploma, namun bagi bakal graduan yang akan menamatkan pengajian peringkat ijazah, mereka perlu menyemak dan memperbaharui semula segala aspek berkaitan dengan tajuk-tajuk

tersebut. Bahkan mereka perlu menyediakan ‘resume’ dan ‘cover letter’ yang baru dengan mengemaskini maklumat tambahan sesuai dengan kelayakan akademik yang baru, pengalaman latihan praktikal di peringkat ijazah serta pembangunan personaliti yang lebih matang.

Sebelum bakal graduan menghadapi temu duga pekerjaan yang sebenar adalah lebih baik mereka didedahkan semula dengan segala aspek persediaan ke alam pekerjaan dan diharapkan mereka benar-benar bersedia dari segi kemahiran kebolehpasaran serta menunjukkan keyakinan yang lebih tinggi dan membuka peluang yang lebih cerah untuk berjaya dalam temu duga pekerjaan. Tambah pula dunia industri berkembang dengan pesat dan kehendak majikan berubah mengikut tuntutan semasa.

Modul ini dikendalikan dengan satu sesi ceramah oleh pihak industri dan Latihan Dalam Kumpulan (LDK) bagi membolehkan penyertaan optima oleh peserta agar pendekatan belajar melalui pengalaman memberikan kesan yang efektif dan berterusan.

MATLAMAT:

Untuk membantu peserta memahami pentingnya penjenamaan semula diri dan kehendak/harapan majikan atau pihak industri terhadap graduan dan pasaran kerja semasa.

OBJEKTIF

 Untuk memahami kehendak majikan/industri terhadap graduan pada masa kini.

 Mengenalpasti pasaran kerja semasa dalam semua sektor

NOTA CERAMAH UNIT 1 EKPEKTASI MAJIKAN TERHADAP GRADUAN (Rebranding and Employer’s Expectation On Graduates)

1.0 Branding Yourself

 A personal brand is a unique set of attributes or characteristics that differentiate you from others

 These characteristics can be ‘functional’ (like having a particular degree or proficiency in typing) or ‘perceived’ (like being a go-getter or thought leader)

 Remember, ‘unique’ means that there aren’t lots more like you!  The public expression and projection of an individual's identity, personality,

values, skills, and abilities. The idea of personal branding has evolved by applying the concept of a product brand or a corporate brand to an individual person. The creation of a personal brand can be used as a tool for personal development as described by Thomas Gad and Anette Rozencreutz in their book, Managing Brand Me (Momentum, 2002).

2.0 Why Personal Branding Important

 Making sure you stand out from the crowd  Personal brands are ‘shortcuts’ to help employers see hiring you as ‘the right

decision’  Allow you to tie your experience, education and interests together in a

coherent package  More than ever, you are in control of your own career - and life goals  Everyone is busy - employers don’t have time to ‘figure you out’  You’ll get better jobs, faster

3.0 Why You Need To Rebrand Yourself

 As you grow, mature and accelerate in your career, everything you’ve created has to be updated so that it accurately represent the current “brand you”.

 Attend training and re-skilling program to enhance your skills and competency especially in those area that you are still lacking or you might want to become multi-skill and multi-tasking.

 Once you gain some new skills or add-value to the current skills, you need to do rebranding process.

4.0 Employer’s Expectation

 Employers worldwide want well-rounded graduates who possess ( Work-ready

graduates );

1. Discipline-specific knowledge and skills (hard skills)

2. Desired soft skills

3. Relevant work experiences (typically attained through internships or part time job)

 Based upon analysis of over 500 graduates recruitment advertisement in The

Star and New Straits Time by Ranjit Sigh for the period June – December 2006, the most highly-valued soft skills were;

1. Oral and written communication skills

2. Interpersonal skills

3. Ability to work in a team

4. Problem solving & decision making

5. Leadership

6. Achievement orientation

7. Proactive(initiative)

8. Integrity

9. Self-confidence

10. Independent with minimal supervision

11. Perform well under pressure  MacLeod (2000) identifies the following as softy skills: ability to communicate

effectively, creativity, analytical thinking, problem -solving skills, leadership skills, team-building skills, listening skills, diplomacy, flexibility, change- readiness and self-awareness.

 The lack of soft skills has contributed greatly to graduates unemployment, besides factors such as ;

1. Low proficiency in English,

2. Lack of relevance of university majors to job available.

3. Lack of work experiences (Hariati, 2007 )  Core Competencies Expected By Employers

 The inability to converse in English, a lack of experience and being choosy are

among the reasons many fresh graduates are unemployed. Young graduates also demanded high salaries and rejected job offers that did not match their qualifications. Career opportunities were abundant in the country with many industries and sectors looking for young talent. Our aim is to produce a world- class work force that can bring the country to a greater heights. (Datuk Maznah

Mazlan Deputy Human Resource Minister” Graduan Aspire 2011” KLCC16 July 2011 )

5.0 Eight key Employability skills

 Communication skills  Team work skills  Problem Solving  Initiative & Enterprise skills  Planning & Organizing skills  Self Management skills  Learning skills  Technology Skills

6.0 Expected Personal Attributes

 Punctuality  Dependability  Loyalty  Commitment  Honesty & Integrity  Enthusiasm  Reliability  Personal Presentation  Common sense  Positive Self-esteem

 Sense of humor  Balanced attitude to Work & Home life  Ability to deal with pressure

7.0 Why Soft Skills Important ?

 Survey conducted locally by Ranjit Sigh & A. Wahab in 2007 involving 336 Human Resource and Hiring managers indicated that 41.1 % of the

respondents ranked soft skills as the most important criterion in hiring fresh university graduates followed by academic background, proficiency in English, interview performance, graduate’s fit with company culture and

internship/relevant experience .  A study conducted by the Standard Research Institute and Carnegie Mellon

Foundation involving 500 CEOs found that 75 % of long-term job success depended on people skills and only 25 % on technical knowledge.

 Soft skills enable graduate employees to optimize their personality and

personal productivity.  Soft skills contribute towards enhancing graduates’ moral intelligence

 In today’s world, knowledge is often out-of-date in 3 to 4 years and graduates need to be prepared adequately for an unknowable future

8.0 How can these skills be obtained?

 Studies  University Activities/ Clubs/ Societies

 Extracurricular activities – hobbies & leisure interests  Community involvement  Work experience – both paid and unpaid

9.0 Changes in the world of work

 Career moves are not always upward, zigzags are often required in today’s flat organizations

• The individual needs to take responsibility for their career development, not organizations

• There is less emphasis on a set list of job duties, and more emphasis on the

package of transferable skills and competencies a person has to offer

10.0 Comments by previous company interviewing UiTM students/graduates:

“Mempunyai kelayakan CGPA yang baik. Penggunaan Bahasa Inggeris memuaskan. Tetapi calon kurang pengetahuan am/khusus pada industri. Perlu lebih prihatin dengan perkembangan semasa mengenai bidang yang ingin diceburi” – CIMB Bank

Exercise 1 : Writing Resume’s Career Objective Statement

You can stand out from the others if you just write your objective from the employer's point of view, instead of your own. The key: To write an objective that answers this question: "What's in it for me?" , which is on every employer's mind as he or she reads your resume. To get you started, here is an example:

OBJECTIVE

Management position in procurement where over 10 years of experience will add value to operations.

Avoid such cliche phrases as: "seeking a chance for advancement," or "where my skills will be utilized," or "where I can further my career." So, to keep your objective from being objectionable, put the focus where it belongs --

on the employer and their needs.

CAREER OBJECTIVE

Seeking a position as … ( the type of role) ..in ( explain, if relevant, the industry or niche where you want to work)… where my … ( describe two, perhaps three of your strongest assets - skills,

knowledge, attitude, experiences ) .. will contribute to …( key words which relate to what is important to the employer- for example words like – profitability, productivity, efficiency, image, reputation, service quality, safety, cost effectiveness etc.)
