Introduction
With the rapid advancement of the association, conflicts between organizations are further
widening; the needs of the alumni sector are centered around grade and a greater focus on their
employability. To win over their competitors in the energy conflict, managers need to bring
graduates with a wide range of skills to the workplace, and they need highly talented
representatives to fulfill a wide range of jobs. So graduates entering the business world should
have what leaders need. To make ourselves riskier later in the job market, we should first find
out what employment skills the industry needs for graduates, at which point as indicated by the
recruiting skills doing individual SWOT analysis and making operational arrangements for
improve ourselves.
Employability skills requires by Employers
Employment skills are identified as skills that are needed not only to gain employment, but also
to advance within an enterprise to realize one's hidden skills and contribute effectively to titles
essential of large enterprises. Today, despite the degree, organizations are focusing more on
alumni recruitment skills, but employment skills are not on par with employment skills. The
employment skills that alumni should have depend on the actual working situation of the
organization and the different organizations have different directions. Through a wide range of
written analysis, the impact of the employability skills required by organizations is largely like
this and can usually be broken down into the eight key skills involved: Communication Skills,
Teamwork Skills, Problem solving skills, self - management skills, planning and co - ordination
skills, technological skills, lifelong building skills and enterprise and enterprise skills.
Why do companies want these skills
Communication skills
CIPD views are based on CIPD / KPMG quarterly labor market forecasts, an overview of over
1,400 UK leaders, top credit managers looking for in school dropout campaigns are relationship
skills (40% of companies place it among the top three they need. Explained), hard-working
prospects (39%) and character (32%). "(CIPD, 2006) Communication always happens in the
workplace, with strong relational skills we can work closely with allies and leaders, together
these lines can establish a reasonable workplace and help us complete the job more productive.,

have excellent relationship skills which not only can make current messengers work more with
the items and administrations that our organization has introduced, but can add more customers
to our company.
Collaborative skills
In today's population, precisely because individual work capacity is not sufficient, an increasing
number of jobs need the collection of individuals to finish together. Working in collections can
accelerate work as well as concept making to think better. the group
Ability to think critically
In this difficult world, groups face different issues at any one time, addressing the issue
effectively empowers the group to be the temple's courage or it will melt.
Self-management skills
Similarly, graduates need graduate skills to complete the work on their own or practically on
their own, without the requirement that someone always stands on top of the delegates and tells
them that they must do so.
Organization and selection of skills
Graduate businesses need to make arrangements and unlock limited resources to achieve both
short and long-term organizational goals.
Ability to innovate
In the age of innovation, innovation capabilities become increasingly important, the organization
needs to be able to deploy PC producers and media communication facilities, understand the
latest innovations and advances in data monitoring through innovation.
Initiated construction skills
For the organization to develop rationally, it is only the demand for consistent representative
learning that will enable the organization to keep pace with this rapidly evolving society, and
employees at whether permanent mastering skills benefit the organization.
Business activity and potential

The representatives chosen by the group are multi-talented, the group can visit their staff to move
to different offices and take on different roles within an organization. (Heather and Peter, 2006,
p.2) This therefore requires the employee to have the skills of action and boldness to adapt
effectively to new situations and to be able to accept the position quickly.
Personal SWOT Analysis
Once the employability needs of the organizations have been identified, I conduct a separate
SWOT analysis based on a real web-based meeting and self-assessment test.
Strengths
I have excellent collaboration and configuration skills. As you can see after my self-assessment
test, I have amazing details in human empowerment and empowerment. .
I have the autonomy permit. I can set the board well and finish the thing without being pushed. I
usually record what I have to do and resolve it as indicated by importance and time after. After
that I will keep in touch with the timetable so that I know exactly what and when to do
immediately.
I am doing well in learning. They are also able to invest energy and energy to master new skills.
By the way, close to the truth, I also sign up for the free English course and Assessment Centers
less than the usual self-improvement model.
I have innovation skills. I have the necessary skills of the PC and can use special programming
packages. Since I considered the business option view in my first year and am now learning
applied management and option display as well, each has to use their own specific programming
packages, so I figured out how to use me them in the course.
Weaknesses
I have no knowledge of the work, not even low maintenance professional training.
I am weak in critical thinking; when I'm dealing with problems in general I can't see all of them
and I can't pay much attention to them.
My communication skills are weak. I'm a thoughtful person (go to addendum 1) and can't talk to
other people. I feel shy when talking to strangers.

Opportunities
I understand low maintenance work over the "future" of our school to gain new skills to update
my CV.
I am more employed than others in case I find out about working in the UK. 65% of managers
worldwide show that they are better able to use it, able to list graduates with insights into
working abroad.
I have the opportunity to find a good line of work on the chance that I will not return to my old
neighborhood after graduating. Organizations looking to return people to the UK mainland: pick
up in UK, study / work in the US or alternatively in Europe and then back in the UK Offer
experience all over the world, as well as language and social skills, however, they are hard to
find.
I can appreciate the variety of unique approaches to foreign agents that the Chinese government
has provided with the opportunity not to return to China.
Threats
Recently, the "touchy" development models of Chinese minors are deciding to recover from the
situation of the landing in China.
Labor pressure in both China and the UK "Not just American alumni for jobs running with
tension, British alumni are equally facing a similar problem. The job shortage has been attributed
to the" rally. generous "of so many unemployed alumni from previous years, putting further
strain on the industry market in 2019.’

Conclusion
There is no doubt that a managers need a lot more from their alumni staff, they need
representatives who will benefit the organization and allow the organization to be in a powerful
position during the fierce conflict. Through an extensive study, I have summarized eight types of
employability skills that organizations typically need. I also did a separate SWOT review relying
on employment skills and a self-assessment test through the web and a real meeting that made
me more self-aware. After that I prepared for the activity for myself. I will stay on track and trust
that it will help me improve my employment skills after I finish. And I get a good job line in the
hard work market after I graduate.
