This research is about the expectations of ABM students and what the industry requires in the corporate world. This study focused on how the ABM students can cope with the requirements of the industry after they graduated. The goal of this study is to help ABM students to be ready and aware in the realization of the industry. The researchers conducted a survey through questionnaires to know the qualities needed in the industry and the problem about their curriculum. Our respondents are the ABM students of Rizal Technological University, Boni Avenue. In addition, the sampling method used the descriptive method to determine the expectation of ABM students and the industry requirements. The respondents of the study covered 50 males and 50 female ABMstudents of Rizal Technological University, Boni Avenue. The questionnaire was the main key in collecting data from the respondents. In order to obtain the necessary relevant information about the study, the researchers asked permission from the Director's office of RTU to allow them to conduct survey. This study made use of a simple statistical treatment data to analyze and interpret the data gathered. Based on the findings, the most important quality of an ABM student is knowledgeable in business industry, and the most encountered problem is the lack of confidence based on their G.W.A. The researchers highly recommend that the school administration may provide materials and resourceful books about business industry. The students have to gain confidence and go through personality development by practicing. The professors can be more comprehensive, simple, and active in teaching the students about written and verbal communication. The school administration may provide seminar for ABM student for them to be motivated and active in school. The future researchers may conduct a research related to this study.
