Abstract

University graduates in most countries are facing difficulty in finding work along with the complexity of job integration. University graduates during their study learn strictly basic concepts without further application and this leads to them not being ready for work. This has resulted in university graduate unemployment rates being consistently higher than the adult population of many countries. The intense competition in the job market requires university graduates to have good self-esteem in order to be more confident in developing their career. Strengthening the career adaptability of a university graduate requires more than just improving self-esteem. It involves social support from the people in their life. This study aims to determine the relationship between perceptions of social support and self-esteem in university graduates.
