This study posits a bioecological positivity to success (BEPS) model and examines how diverse bioecological factors predict graduates' career success. The BEPS model with an emphasis on hard (e.g. science, technology, engineering and mathematics [STEM]) and soft (e.g. interpersonal and critical thinking) skills generate a hypothetical model:…

As massification of higher education developed, employment challenges in changing labour markets aroused the attention of scholars globally.
