BEIJING - Many colleges in Beijing are resorting to "cloud recruitment" for this year's graduates instead of on-site recruiting sessions to avoid coronavirus transmission.

The university's online recruiting session has drawn more than 2 million views, according to the university's student career center. Peking University also provides free online training for students intending to sit for interviews of the national civil servant exam.

For students of Renmin University of China, cloud recruitment also allows them to submit resumes and have interviews online. Employers can hold campus talks with students on the internet and interact with them. The university also established an online platform, offering guidance on career, recruitment and entrepreneurship.

Several other colleges in Beijing have similar measures to ensure smooth job hunting.
