11/11/2003 16:14

With more than 100,000 graduating university students expected in Shanghai next year, the local job situation is still tough, the Shanghai Morning Post reported today.
The Shanghai Municipal Education Commission has invested 4.5 million yuan (US$540,000) to establish a computer employment network for local graduating university students, and in order to ease the local job pressure was the first in China to carry out a registration system for unemployed graduating students.
All the local universities have launched similar registration services for unemployed graduating students, and the university employment service centers will also provide registrants with a series of services such as free job recommendations and internship opportunities.
"The students registering must contact their universities every two weeks, and those not having contacted their universities for four consecutive weeks will be considered as having found jobs," said the spokesman with the Shanghai Career Guidance Center.
