Summary/Abstract: Modern economy requires graduates to possess particular competences, not only those associated with knowledge and skills emerging from the particular course of studies. The subject matter of the present paper contributes to the discussion on shaping university graduates’ vocational competences. The objective of the study was to identify expectations of employers who employ graduates of finance and accounting studies with regard to their fitness for employment. The analysis encompassed required competences and areas defined by employers as additional qualifications. As the results of the study, the practical recommendations for students of economics were formulated.
