Is it impossible for me to lose my job after graduation? This is a dilemma that about one million Chinese university graduates this year. No one knows how long this dilemma will last, but there is no doubt that it will involve the fate of thousands of people and families.

For a long time, Chinese society has formed the phenomenon of excessive national resources concentrating on the white-collar elite. The concept of the whole society is that college students become state cadres after graduation, and college students are natural candidate white-collar workers. This biased social value orientation has caused great deviations in college students' professional concepts.

Ziqi told Fan Wubing that she wanted to go and investigate the employment status of college graduates this year and asked him if he was interested in going to take a look together.

Fan Wubing thought that there was nothing wrong recently, because of SARS, he had already made people feel a little fucked, so he agreed and drove to pick up Ziqi. Then the two followed two CCTV photojournalists to the talent market together.

After arriving here, I looked carefully and found that there were bicycles and assistive vehicles everywhere in the parking lot of the talent market. The queues were almost all the newly graduated college students, stuffing the doors very much, and the thick resume was clamped with various colors, packing them up, filling the gap between this hand and that hand.

These graduates rode their bicycles early in the morning, traveled through half a city, arrived at the talent market, and did not eat breakfast, so they came to the counter to divine their fate.

"The key undergraduate degree is 1,500, the general undergraduate degree is 1,200, and college degree is not allowed." The public relations lady from the recruiting unit answered them weakly.

The weather was very hot, and the lady was a little in a bad mood. The fan next to her kept turning, and the pink ribbon wrapped around the frame fluttered with the wind, bringing a little lively vitality to the recruitment site.

"What!" The graduates hardly believed their ears, and the happy hope suddenly sank and everyone was stunned.

"In April, didn't you say that IT's annual salary is 60,000?"

"I've also received 70,000, not to mention 60,000."

"Where is there a drop so much!"

"It's better not to do it. Let's go back and stay at home!" Such angry words spurted out from the simple heart.

"Tsk—" the lady sneered, "If you don't do it, will they close? There are many undergraduate graduates everywhere, and the first few batches have not been distributed, and undergraduate graduates from Tsinghua and Peking University are coming. Now there are many returnees, masters, doctors, and MBAs everywhere, and high-salary POSITION (positions) are reserved for them."

Tsinghua University, Peking University and other universities, master's degree, doctoral degree, MBA, that is a relatively distant thing, as if you can ignore it. However, students who have graduated can only say it as an angry sentence.

How can I not do it? Living expenses in the city are spent. In order to make a resume and buy a decent suit and tie, my father and mother had to pay back the debts they borrowed for school and signed a contract to borrow from the bank.

Fan Wubing felt that this conversation seemed to have heard of it. After thinking for a long time, he remembered that he had read this forum "Add a Three or Five Dolls": College Student Employment Edition. But he didn't expect that there was a real-life version. For a moment, he couldn't help but feel a little moved.

This year marks the first year for large-scale employment for colleges and universities. After a large-scale expansion of enrollment in 1999, the number of graduates from ordinary colleges and universities in China soared to 2.12 million this year, an increase of 46% compared with last year, doubled the number of that in 1998.

However, the overcrowding of the talent market does not bring everyone the joy of a good harvest.

For one million college students in China and the one million families behind them, what they are facing is the most severe employment situation in fifty years.

After the graduation ceremony and the departure procedures were completed, everyone received a green cover graduation certificate. At the same time, many people found that they were unemployed.

This graduation certificate, which took four years of hard work, did not bring them the job they wanted. According to official statistics, many people have become one of about one million college graduates who have not signed a contract to find a job this year.

When they took the college entrance examination that year, they would never have thought that what they had to face was the most severe employment situation for college students since the founding of the People's Republic of China. Among the employment rates announced by the Ministry of Education of China not long ago, the national graduate signing rate was only about 50%.

God knows, is there a lot of water in this statistics as always?

Since the country began to conduct employment rate statistics in 1996, this number has not been lower than 75%. From 1996 to 2002, the employment rates of college graduates were 93.7, 97.1, 76.8, 79.3, 82.0, 90.0, 80, respectively.

In fact, if the employment rate of the national consolidation system in the past decades is nearly 100, this number may be the lowest in 50 years.

Fan Wubing, Zi Qi and others were both sighing when they heard it. For the group of college graduates in front of them, the computer major they studied was one of the majors with the highest employment rate two years ago. But to this day, the situation is extremely serious. According to the statistical table of the Northern University of Technology, the employment rate of this major has only reached 30% so far, and has become one of the few majors with the lowest employment rate in the school.

Another popular English major that was easy to find employment in previous years has dropped to about 22% of the school's record-breaking record.

Although the employment rates of some famous key universities exceed 10%, as a whole, this wave of employment problems is nationwide.

The Ministry of Education just stated the day before yesterday that more than 1.06 million graduates have been signed in the country, of which the signing rate of graduate students is 80%, the signing rate of undergraduate students is 60%, and the signing rate of junior college students is only 30%.

When commenting on the current situation, the word used by the Ministry of Education is "the employment rate has risen steadily." But behind these numbers, while obtaining the graduation certificate, there are still 1.06 million college students across the country who are "not yet employed".

In Guangdong, where the employment absorption capacity is strong, the number of ordinary college graduates who need to be hired this year reaches 180,000. The relevant departments predict that the employment rate once, that is, the employment rate of college students when they leave school should be around 50%. In addition, the graduates who return to Guangdong to work in colleges and universities outside the province, Guangdong estimates that 70,000 college graduates will not be able to find jobs this year.

The National Development and Reform Commission said that the primary employment rate is affected by various factors and does not reflect all the real situation. What is important is the secondary employment rate by the end of the year.

But even if you can finally pass the year with a smile, next year's 2.6 million graduates will bring a new peak of employment.

The expansion of enrollment in colleges and universities that China began to implement in 1999 has more than doubled the number of college students in four years, which has been described by foreign media as a great leap forward in China's higher education.

The positive effect of expansion of enrollment on China will take longer to fully demonstrate. But at present, millions of Chinese families must face a period of pain. In this context, SARS, which lasted for three months, was just an accident that made the worst.

The difficulty of employment has been expected by most people. The college employment guidance center's forecast for this year's employment situation is the same as last year or slightly lower, and SARS was just showing signs of decline.

But now, the original predictions have basically been invalidated, and the sudden outbreak of SARS completely overturned the school's original predictions.

April and May should be the peak of large-scale signing of students, but schools have suspended classes, isolated, closed schools, and job fairs have all stopped, and only a few bold units have come to visit.

However, most interviewees believe that the impact of SARS on employment is temporary. They attribute the difficulty of employment mainly to the rapid expansion of enrollment, the severe employment situation in the entire society, such as household registration, archives, and unreasonable professional settings.

All of the above problems cannot be resolved in the short term. Therefore, a key suspense is how long will the employment tension last?

The existing data shows that the college enrollment plan formulated by the Ministry of Education is growing at a rate of about 30% per year, and 2.6 million college students will graduate next year, and by 2010, the number of graduates will reach more than 3.5 million.

On the other hand, the national employment growth rate has been only one percent in the past decade, and this number will not change significantly in the next few years.

The annual social situation analysis and forecast of the Academy of Social Sciences believes that China will add about 8 million new labor positions per year, while the number of employment required in urban areas reaches about 23 million every year, and the annual oversupply gap in labor market will reach 15 million.

Among them, how many jobs can be left for college students?

"I came here today, it was really depressing-" Zi Qi couldn't help but frown after seeing this result.

No one will feel very comfortable when seeing this result. Among the two college graduates, one of them cannot find a job. The term of office is in the society, which will always have a great negative effect. No wonder pyramid scheme organizations in various places are constantly banned. It is because there are too many idle people in society.

Since no one has any serious things to do, of course we have to follow some wrong paths.

Fundamentally speaking, it is because there are too few job opportunities. If the government only focuses on how to expand enrollment and make money, and does nothing to provide space for personal development, it can be imagined that this society will only become worse and worse.
