Abstract A new global study of employer perspectives on graduates with international education experiences shows that there is strong recognition of the benefits of globally educated employees in the employment marketplace. Intercultural communication skills and language skills are particularly important to today?s graduate employers. This chapter provides an overview of the results of the study on the role of international education in the recruitment process. We will also discuss the implications of these results for policy makers, institutions and practitioners and suggest some ways that international educators can support students in achieving positive employment outcomes.
