dc.description.abstract This study determined the influence of individuals’ emotional intelligence on their psychosocial employability attributes. A cross-sectional quantitative survey was conducted. A non-probability sample of 304 employed postgraduate students (predominantly early career black = 70 %; females = 64 % with a mean age of 26 – 40 years) participated in the study. Multiple regressions were used to analyse the data. Emotional intelligence was found to be a significant predictor of the participants’ psychosocial employability attributes. The findings provide valuable information that can be used in career development support and counselling practices in the contemporary work world. en
