Abstract: Management graduates in higher education institutions face crucial period of their career in developing themselves psychologically, professionally, physiologically and socially. This phase influences their personal well-being, adjustment to the academics and adaptation. Institutes at this stage help graduates do have overall development leading to employability and building career. Being at the threshold of life between academics and job, graduates require social support from teachers, peers, family and friends which impact their self-esteem to become employable. This study is an attempt to assess the perception of the management graduates on social support system and its impact on their self-esteem. Study included 200 management graduates from Andhra Pradesh management institutes. The results reveal that perceived social support and self-esteem significantly impact the overall development of the graduate and specifically employability. Results suggest that, if a graduate is having supportive family, peers and teachers, she/he is able to become more confident in handling themselves and becoming employable.
