The present study describes the efficiency of the English language classes existing in Master of Business Administration (MBA) course of various PG colleges in Marathwada region, Maharashtra. There are many MBA graduates being unemployed because of their low self-confidence level and poor employability skills. Despite the fact that several research studies have been conducted on the importance and improvement of employability skills for postgraduate students, the challenge of those skills remains with them. This research aimed to determine the efficacy of good communication skills in MBA courses and to expose the ambiguity surrounding the low professionalism of rural students in several PG institutions. It was observed that several graduates, also in their final semester, have limited professionalism to meet campus selections with effective communication skills, which are needed to get a job at the end of their degree. Many students want to learn effective communication skills exercises in terms of developing their interpersonal skills, so innovative education systems and techniques are needed for English language faculty. As a result of the findings, the issue between English language teachers' practices, interventions, and the learners' ability requirements has been identified, as well as the need for suitable ELT (English Language Techniques) and training programs to improve speaking skills for students in rural areas.
