More effort to boost employment
The Chinese government is sparing no efforts to help college graduates find jobs. Local related departments have been urged to launch campaigns in the next three months to boost employment.
Education departments and universities are required to help graduates whose files are still in the school, to find jobs as soon as possible. Unemployed graduates whose files have been transferred to their hometowns can contact local human resources authorities for internship opportunities. Companies that employ interns and local governments should offer living subsidies to the graduates.
Yu Faming, official of Ministry of Human Resources & Social Security, said, "We will publish a list of internship bases, universities could choose one to cooperate with and send their students there."
Employment campaigns have already been launched in some places. In Sichuan Province, local authorities have organized a job fair for graduates who want to start a business and graduates from low income families.
