Employers feedback on the job performances of the Bachelor of Arts in English Language graduates
Abstract
The study examined the employers feedback on the job performances of the Bachelor of Arts in English Language (BAEL) graduates of Kalinga State University. Employer's feedback is vital in honing future nation-builders as it provides input in evaluating a curricular program to determine whether it is congruent with the demands of the industries. It used an explanatory sequential research design, explicitly employing a quantitative-quality approach. Significantly, it revealed that the employers of the graduates are very satisfied with their job performances in the areas of competence, commitment, collaboration, and credibility. The employers identified the graduates’ strengths in terms of job traits such as flexibility, initiative, creativity, dependability, leadership potential, and intellect. However, the employers also identified their weaknesses as a lack of self-confidence and a lack of time management. The study further revealed that most employers require new recruits to have job skills such as communications skills, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) skills, cooperative skills, leadership skills, and research skills. Therefore, the study concludes that the BAEL graduates perform in their jobs with very much satisfaction from their employers. It significantly implies an effective curricular program, producing BAEL graduates with the required competence, commitment, collaborative skills, and credibility to perform in their chosen jobs.
