Abstract

With the deepening of educational reform in China, higher education has shifted from elite education to mass education, that leading to an annual increase in the number of graduates. However, many college students lack the corresponding competitiveness in the job market. Therefore, enhancing the employability of college students to increase competitiveness has become crucial. Drawing on the Career EDGE employability model as the theoretical framework, this study explores the impact of career planning on employability among college students, with learning attitude as a mediating variable. Through convenient sampling of college students in Hebei Province, China, 430 valid questionnaires were used to empirically test the theoretical hypothesis model. The results indicate that career planning has a direct impact on employability, and learning attitude also has a direct impact on employability. After incorporating learning attitude as a mediating variable, it was found to partially mediate the relationship between career planning and employability.
