Unemployment Upon
Graduation?
23 November 2006
Since Chinese
universities began to increase the intake
of the students few years ago, college
graduates are said to face unprecedented
tough job market. Some reports predicted
that there could be as many as 12
millions new graduates unable to land a
relevant job after completing their
course next year. The old saying
"unemployment upon graduation"
once again becomes a catch phrase.
But the reality
seems a bit different. In fact, there are
more companies in the market hunting for
talented graduates than previous years,
with most universities saw an
unprecedented hiring binge on Monday,
November 20, when college job fairs were
held in the campuses across China.
Chinese Medicine
in general, particularly CM Holistic
Nursing, apparently is one of the most
popular occupations at this year’s
campus job fairs. In shanghai, for
instance, more than two thirds of the
Chinese Medicine students due to graduate
in 2007 reportedly have signed a
pre-contract with a hospital.

college students jostled into the
Job Fairs, which caused some
glass doors and handrails on
staircases become crooked.
