Participating in a 'face-to-face' interview in the cyber world
could help Chinese graduates get a job in real world.?
Two of China's national employment service websites,
www.myjob.edu.cn and www.job100.com, will hold online job
fairs--December 22-28 and March 12-18--aiming to broaden employment
opportunities for university graduates.
Over 4000 businesses, including a number of state-owned
enterprises, will release 50,000 pieces of employment information
by way of the internet during these two weeks.
Using webcam technology the two websites will allow job seekers
to hold face-to-face online interviews with prospective employers.
This saves time, the expense of traveling to interviews and makes
job hunting more efficient for all concerned.?
With the number of students graduating from Chinese universities
in 2007 expected to reach 4.95 million, 820,000 up on 2006, the
employment prospects for them are becoming increasingly
difficult.
In order to assist them find work the Ministry of Education,
Ministry of Personnel, Ministry of Labor and Social Security, State
Development and Reform Commission and the State-owned Assets and
Administration Commission agreed in November to launch dedicated
employment service websites and organize online job fairs.
