It explains the need for developing graduate employability under socioeconomic, cultural, and political pressure exposed to the higher education sector. Largely framed within Bourdieu?s concepts of social field, habitus, and capital, it explores international stakeholders? perspectives and experiences with graduate employability agenda in different contexts, which serves as a point of reference for the adoption of such initiatives. Based on empirical evidence, the authors develop a new graduate employability framework seeing it as a lifelong process, denote the relationships between types of employability capital, and shed light on the consequences of different strategies to translate employability capital to employment and career outcomes. Overall, this book generates both theoretical and practical insights which help to advance employability programs, better prepare the future workforce, and anticipate turbulence in the labour markets. 606 $aEducation, Higher 606 $aIndustrial sociology 606 $aInternational education 606 $aComparative education 606 $aProfessional education 606 $aVocational education 606 $aHigher Education 606 $aSociology of Work 606 $aInternational and Comparative Education 606 $aProfessional and Vocational Education 615 0$aEducation, Higher. 615 0$aIndustrial sociology. 615 0$aInternational education. 615 0$aComparative education. 615 0$aProfessional education. 615 0$aVocational education. 615 14$aHigher Education. 615 24$aSociology of Work. 615 24$aInternational and Comparative Education. 615 24$aProfessional and Vocational Education. 676 $a378.155 702 $aNghia$b Tran Le Huu 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910591038403321 996 $aGraduate Employability Across Contexts$92911534 997 $aUNINA
