The National Graduate Employability Index (GE Index) is a market research initiative by Talentbank Group – an enabler in the employability ecosystem connecting career-ready candidates with industry leaders who welcome world-class talent. The GE Index is 100 percent determined through votes by leading employers and serves as a guide for school leavers and parents to make informed decisions when selecting an institution for higher education, and increasing their chances of getting employed upon graduation.
Recently, Talentbank conducted an extensive survey in collaboration with top employers to identify their preferred choices for graduate recruitment. It gathered responses from renowned companies such as AirAsia, Coca-Cola, Deloitte, Gamuda, GSC, Hong Leong Bank, Huawei, HP, Malaysia Aviation Group, Mondelēz, Nestlé, Nippon Paint, P&G, Petronas, PwC, Top Glove, Unilever, as well as SMEs and startups, to assess the employability rate of graduates from higher education institutions across the nation.
Through its findings, The One Academy has been voted and recognised as one of the Employers’ Preferred Universities in 2023. It is highlighted as one of the Malaysian education institutions that have consistently produced graduates who are highly sought after by employers. This recognition serves as a testament to the outstanding education and comprehensive career preparation that The One Academy offers to its students, and further solidifying its reputation as one of the top institutions in the region.
Through the GE Index research, three primary questions were presented to employers to provide a comprehensive understanding of a university’s employability. The feedback provided valuable information on employers’ preferences for universities, the number of graduates hired from there, and their intentions to continue hiring from their chosen institutions.
The One Academy has achieved remarkable employability achievements in diverse fields of study: 6 stars in Arts & Design, 6 stars in Animation (Champion) and 5 stars in Advertising. These achievements are a testament to the institution’s rigorous academic programmes, faculty expertise and industry connections that equip students with the skills and knowledge needed for career success. With top-rated employability, The One Academy proves to be a leading choice for students seeking a competitive edge in the job market.
