College and university students often face unemployment after spending their valuable time and money in order to receive educational advantages. It makes them are more vulnerable to unfavourable economic conditions as those students have spent a lot of their resources while having the higher education. This paper examines the reasons and factors why fresh graduates are facing unemployment in the competitive market in Klang Vally, Malaysia. 200 data of fresh graduate was collected and analysed by SPSS20. There are several factors that explain their unemployment status, and this paper identifies each component at an individual level.
