Abstract: In today's competitive job market, academic knowledge alone doesn’t secure employment. Employers expect graduates to have strong soft skills like communication, teamwork, leadership, adaptability, and problem-solving. These skills are crucial for improving students' employability readiness and professional performance.

It looks at how participation in training programs influences students' confidence, communication skills, teamwork, and job preparedness. We gathered primary data from 151 final year students using a structured questionnaire. The findings show that most students who attended soft skills training reported improvements in their communication skills, teamwork abilities, and confidence during job interviews. The study concludes that soft skills training significantly enhances employability readiness and helps students prepare for the job market.
