Abstract: This article explores comprehensive strategies for enhancing career readiness in higher education based on the author's extensive consulting experience with universities. It argues that despite today's rapidly evolving job market demanding strong practical skills, many institutions remain overly focused on traditional academic approaches that inadequately prepare graduates for professional success. The article presents four evidence-based strategies for universities to better empower career-ready students: implementing robust experiential learning programs (including internships, simulations, and service learning); cultivating career management skills through integrated curriculum modules and sustained advising; fostering meaningful employer partnerships that benefit both students and organizations; and effectively communicating career education outcomes to drive continued institutional investment. By implementing these interconnected approaches, the article contends that universities can develop graduates who possess both the practical skills and self-awareness needed to navigate successful career transitions in an increasingly dynamic workplace environment.
