Abstrakt: Amid the issue of rising percentage of unemployed graduates, the Islamic finance industry is reporting of shortage in human capital. This has raised the question about the competence level of our graduates from Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in Malaysia. This study embarks on examining the required competency skills that graduates of HEIs should have in preparing themselves for the work force. As current studies indicated that soft skills, known also as generic skills, are on top of technical skills, this present study focused on the former. Using the qualitative method of library research, the study identified several common soft skills required by the industry for the graduates to have. Knowledge capacity in shariah is the highlight of the study as this attribute is highly needed by the respective industry. Finding of the study is useful for especially the HEIs in reviewing and amending their program structures to accommodate the grooming of their students for employment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
