More Tibetan students are employed in private sector

Though many college graduates in the Tibet autonomous region hope to land a stable job in the public sector, more have chosen employment in the private sector this year, the Lhasa Human Resources and Social Security Bureau said on Monday.

The city's employment rate for college graduates stands at 96.3 percent so far this year, with the private sector accounting for 78 percent of the figure, up by 12 percentage points year-on-year.

He Nengcheng, deputy head of the bureau, said employment matters to both families and the country and is a priority.
