Recruiting in China

This is a key period for college graduates looking for jobs. China is facing a great challenge to ensure millions of graduates nationwide find employment amid the economic slowdown.

In the northeastern province of Jilin, a series of job fairs are helping to address the issue. 17-thousand jobs are on offer at this job fair alone, which is free to both recruiters and job seekers.

So far nearly 50-thousand college graduates have secured jobs in Jilin Province, but that is only one third of the province's total number of grads.

Shanghai, Tianjin and Guangdong Province, where many major universities are clustered, are encouraging graduate students to seek work in smaller cities where competition for jobs is not so severe.
