Job-seeking Business Administration Degree Holders in Saudi Arabia Based on Universities Outcomes, Gender and Regions: Comparative Study

This study aims to not only investigate the employment outcomes of university graduates facing limited job opportunities but also identify regions with high unemployment rates. A sample of 3303 participants from the Statistics Authority's Jadarah program applicants in 2020 was used for this study. The sample was restricted to three universities: King Abdulaziz University, King Saud University, and Imam Muhammad bin Saud Islamic University. The business administration specialization selected for analysis encompasses all academic levels (diploma to master's) and genders. A statistical analysis program, SPSS, was employed to analyze the data. The main result indicates that the university plays a role in increasing the opportunity of getting a job, and the Riyadh region has a high demand of job requests.
