This chapter reports a study investigating the perceptions of three groups of HE stakeholders, teachers, graduates, and current students, to identify perceived determinants of employment outcomes for Information Technology (IT) graduates in India and factors contributing to low employability among IT engineering graduates. The study showed that although current students, graduates, and teachers agreed on the importance of human, social, and identity capital, their perceptions about the most important determinants are different. While teachers placed importance on human capital and identity capital, students/graduates considered social capital as key for their career development. This chapter discusses some important implications to develop employability for IT students better. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2022.
