Modul ini menggarap tajuk-tajuk seperti ‘Rebranding and Employer’s expectation on graduates’, ‘Knowing Yourself’, ‘Branding Yourself’, ‘Resume and Cover Letter’ dan ‘Job Interview’. Isu-isu ini sangat asas dan perlu dikuasai bagi bakal graduan dalam proses mencari pekerjaan terutama dalam siatuasi 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.

Tambah pula dunia industri berkembang dengan pesat dan ekspektasi majikan berubah mengikut tuntutan semasa.
Modul ini dikendalikan dengan satu sesi ceramah oleh pihak industri dan sesi-sesi Latihan Dalam Kumpulan (LDK) bagi membolehkan penyertaan optima oleh peserta agar pendekatan belajar melalui pengalaman memberikan kesan yang efektif dan berpanjangan.

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. Proactivity (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
Career moves are not always upward, zigzags are often required in today’s flat organizations
9.0 Changes in the world of work
- 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

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.

- – profitability, productivity, efficiency, image, reputation, service quality, safety, cost effectiveness etc.)

my well develop instructional design and facilitation skills in Quality ServiceManagement can be utilised to assist the organization achieve a reputation for
delivering service excellence.With that in mind, try to create your resume objective statement: _________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________
