Graduating university students rank government departments as their
top choice in job seeking, according to a recent survey of 250 graduating
university students.
According to the survey, 54 percent of graduating
students want to seek a job in Shanghai.
More than 80 percent of
graduating students expect to earn less than 3,000 yuan (US$361) per month on
their first job, with many caring more about whether the job has development
potential or not, the survey indicated.
Forty-six percent were willing to
do a job unrelated to their field of study, said a survey
analyst.
According to the survey, government department jobs are the top
choice for graduating students, followed by jobs in the public sector,
state-owned companies, wholly-owned foreign firms, Sino-foreign joint ventures
and private firms.
Marketing and sales is the most popular sector,
followed by IT, financial insurance, architecture and real estate, electronic
appliances, biopharmaceutical and mechanic manufacturing industries, the survey
indicted.
