Students’ Attitude towards Future Job Opportunities and Undermining Issues,

Author(s) Dr. Sashi Kanta Saikia
Country India
Abstract Students’ attitudes toward future job opportunities play a critical role in shaping their career aspirations, educational choices, and long-term professional development. This study examines how higher secondary and undergraduate students perceive emerging job prospects and identifies the key issues that undermine their confidence in securing meaningful employment, using a mixed-methods approach with data collected from 150 students through structured questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The findings reveal that many students are optimistic about opportunities in entrepreneurship and skill-based professions, a significant number experience uncertainty due to inadequate career guidance, limited awareness of evolving job markets, skill mismatches and rising competition. Socio-economic constraints, lack of practical exposure, and fear of unemployment further contribute to negative attitudes, with notable differences observed across gender, academic stream, and socio-economic background. Overall, the study highlights the need for comprehensive career counselling, stronger skill-development initiatives, and improved industry–academia collaboration to help students build realistic and confident career outlooks, emphasizing that addressing these undermining issues is essential for enhancing students’ preparedness for future employment.
