Abstract
Enhancing the employment of university students and the development of sustainable careers is at the core of national and supra-national political agendas. This chapter explores how perceived employability relates to subsequent career success among graduate students. Moreover, it investigates the personal and context-related factors influencing student perceptions of employability. Data were collected through a two-wave survey administered between 2021 and 2022 to final-year students at the University of Milano-Bicocca. Results of ordinary least squares regression show that perceived employability is a valid predictor of graduates' objective and subjective career outcomes. This study also highlights the key role of digital and personal skills development as potential drivers of employability perception among university students. The results of this study contribute to the literature on graduate employability and career success and have implications for the governance and management of higher education institutions.

It combines mental health, happiness, time management, productivity, performance, and the possibility of being a company ambassador in a physical or digital way or even in the combination of both, phygitally. Mental health becomes a public health issue when it is not reflected as a center of sustainability. Work activities can show the harm to human life and careers need to be fully sustainable, including the possibility of representing the brand with knowledge about the brand's products or services. Some people are happy to contribute on social networks or in the metaverse. The happiness element is present in studies that have conclusions about the contribution of happiness in the employee's professional life. Neural connections relate to health, well-being, feelings, emotions, actions, and recognition. The represented productivity can be through performance and deliveries, it is related to the management of enjoyment and work time and can also be measured with the presentation of the business on digital or phygital platforms. Sustainable employability is contained in the sustainable career, just as the sustainable career is at the intersection of mental health, happiness, and time management. Personal life influences the professional and the professional trajectory interferes in people's way of life.
