Post-graduation employment is considered an urgent concern not only for graduates but also for their families, educational institutions, and society. Hence, the paper attempts to evaluate the contemporary situation, identify the underlying causes of unemployment status, and propose feasible solutions to improve post-graduation job opportunities for graduates of Hanoi University of Physical Education and Sports. The survey includes 973 alumni having graduated between 2018 and 2022 from two universities, Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City Universities of Physical Education and Sports. The results indicate that the proportion of employed bachelors within 12 months of graduation exceeds 90%. The study also identifies nine factors influencing the job-seeking process of graduates. Afterwards, the study proposes six solutions which comprise three directions aimed at educational institutions and three ones aimed at students.
