Abstract:

The paper reviews problems associated with high level of dissatisfaction of Russian employers with the quality of university graduates.  We present a methodological set of tools for university executives to acquire information on employer satisfaction with the skills of university graduates and the main requirements to their personnel. The tools also make it possible to identify the forms of cooperation with universities that employers deem promising for increasing the competitive strength of future graduates.
