Abstract

The study aims to analyze the factors that affect the employability of graduate faculty of economics with an integrated model of graduate employability. This research is a quantitative study with a population of batch 2019-2020 students from the Faculty of Economics (FE), Universitas Negeri Semarang (UNNES). The populations were 847 in 2019 and 597 in 2020. It was distinguished due to differences in the situation; 2019 is not a pandemic, and 2020 is a pandemic. In 2019, 247 graduates were needed, and in 2020 there are 220 graduates. Data will be collected employing a questionnaire and analyzed by SEM-PLS. Based on the results of the analysis, two models were obtained, i.e., pre-pandemic and in-pandemic. The pre-pandemic model measures eight hypotheses with an R-Square of 0.720 for perceived employability and an R-Square of 0.656 for graduate employability. The in-pandemic model also measures eight hypotheses with an R-square of 0.596 for perceived employability and an R-Square of 0.298 for graduate employability. The labor market moderated negatively significantly between perceived employability and graduate employability. Perceived employability at the pre-pandemic model is better than the in-pandemic model. Then, it is suggested for FE, UNNES that employability needs to be improved by increasing individual attributes. Individual attributes variables include indicators of personality, adaptability, and flexibility.
