Graduates pick study over job market
More than 30 percent of college graduates choose postgraduate study over job hunting because they believe looking for work is too difficult, a study shows.
Zhang Xiaochu, director of Haidian human resource service center, said 33.7 percent of the 2,641 college students surveyed said they would study for a higher degree, including 8.58 percent of respondents who want to study abroad.
He said the employment situation remains challenging because of the financial crisis, intense competition and the gap between employers' expectations and the capability of graduates.
