Job-hopping workers focus on soft skills, career management

Survey shows employees on lookout for new challenges, better prospects

Chinese white-collar workers showed a stronger job-hopping propensity this spring than the same period last year. Culture, media, internet and finance industries showed the highest mobility, a report said.

About 74 percent of 36,448 white-collar workers interviewed said they were seeking, or already landed, a new job. This is 4.43 percentage points higher than last spring, according to a recent report from Zhaopin, a Chinese online recruitment services provider.
