Abstract

An attempt has been made to identify employability skills of engineering graduates. The skills that influence the performance of engineering graduates in campus placement are assessed. In this paper, various skills were identified and correlated with each other by using statistical tools such as chi square test and T-Test using SPSS-20. Binary logistic regression mathematical model was developed which predicts Probability of Employment of engineering graduates in campus placement recruitment process of multinational companies in IT sector. Sensitivity analysis was carried out to check impact of input variables like Aptitude, Communication, Technical, and Personality skills on Employability. Aptitude is the major deciding skill to get early employment in campus placement recruitment process of the company.
