Here are the highlights:

• Two recently published employability rankings reveal some important insights for institutions of all stripes, including the importance of so-called “soft skills”, such as communications skills and adaptability, and the growing utility of expanded linkages between institutions and employers
• The findings also illustrate some of the useful employability factors that institutions can track and promote
• Particularly for those institutions outside of the top tiers of international ranking tables, any such alternate measures of graduate outcomes can represent powerful signals for prospective students
