전문대학 졸업자의 첫 직장 취업성과에 대한 영향요인 분석

Abstract

By analyzing the factors affecting employment outcomes of junior college graduates, this research aimed to provide the basic data needed at a university level to enhance employment outcomes of college graduates. Accordingly, the data of junior college graduates were extracted from the 2020 Graduate Occupation Mobility Survey (GOMS) data of the Korea Employment Information Service. Both objective (i.e., employment status, salary) and subjective (i.e., job satisfaction, work satisfaction, work-education level concordance, necessary skills and retained skills concordance) employment outcomes were analyzed in this study.
 First, age, major field, job experience programs, interviews/creating a resume, and employment camp experience had a statistically significant effect on employment status. In terms of wages, gender, age, university location, major field, and job experience programs had a significant impact. Second, regarding job satisfaction, major field, career counseling and support system satisfaction, and major curriculum and content satisfaction had a significant effect. Third, regarding work satisfaction, grades, university location, teaching method and quality satisfaction, and job camp experience showed a significant effect. Finally, regarding work-education level concordance level, grades, major field, overall school satisfaction, and job experience programs had a statistically important effect, and regarding necessary skills-retained skills concordance level, grades, university location, major field, career counseling and support system satisfaction, overall school satisfaction, and job experience programs had a significant impact.
 The findings suggest that the efforts at the institution level should made to develop a career and employment education roadmap and strategies tailored for each field and major, provide diverse voluntary job preparation opportunities, and expand and strengthen major curriculum based on field-centered curriculum.
