Many employers face similar troubles when recruiting new workers. Considering only applicants from "famous" universities while ignoring those from less known ones is a common practice. This is unfair in terms of an enterprise's responsibility to society, and also reveals a certain amount of ignorance on the part of human resource managers.
One irony of this case is that at least 10 companies have since expressed a willingness to hire Li, some of them offering an annual salary of 1 million yuan ($131,600). It seems that a talented job-seeker can demonstrate his/her competence by making some unusual or even unethical moves.
More absurd is the requirement among some employers that a person with a master's or doctoral degree from a prestigious university should also have had his/her undergraduate education at a prestigious university. In other words, a person who has finished postgraduate studies at a well-known university will still be overlooked if he/she had the misfortune of attending a less-than-famous university.
It is unclear to me whether such practices are the result of a sincere belief among employers that an undergraduate education at a well-known university is more important than anything else, or whether they think China has so many university graduates that they can delight themselves by playing pranks on the poor jobseekers.
It seems that we are saying "talent is the most important resource in the 21st century" on the one hand, while setting obstacles in the way of talented people on the other. Attend any job fair and one will find discriminative criteria of all types: sex, age, school, work experience and even place of birth.
