The purpose of this research is to identify the employability status of the Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (BSCS) Graduates of Negros Oriental State University-Guihulngan City Campus, Philippines from 2019 to 2021 with the entire population as respondents. It also sought to determine the respondents’ sex, nature of employment, and relatedness of their academic degree and job roles. The descriptive method was utilized. There were 111 respondents in this study. Findings show that the majority of the respondents are female, and a large majority of the respondents (78.38%) are employed. The results further disclose that most of the employed respondents work in private agencies as office staff and a small percentage (20%) in Business Process Outsourcing. However, most of the respondents’ job roles are not related to their college degrees. Hence, the findings suggest the high employability of BSCS graduates. However, there is still room for more enhancement by evaluating the current curriculum of the Bachelor of Science in Computer Science aimed to fulfill the current and future needs of societies undergoing social and economic change.
