The role of predictive analytics to explain the employability of management graduates

What is it about?

Signaling theory in education indicates that the level of productivity of an individual is independent of education, but the educational qualification acts as a testimony for higher ability. However, this theory does not explain the reason for the mismatch between ‘education and work’ or ‘education & the disparity in salary’ between individuals who earn differently but have the same qualification. This paper explores three attributes namely – ‘employability ‘– The chance of being employable, ‘pre-placement offers’ - the chance of securing a job offer based on the performance in internship and ‘salary’ – the chance of bagging a good job offer with a high salary. Key words – Employability, Predictive modeling, Predictive Analytics, Management Education, Machine Learning.
