At some job fairs in recent years, it has been very common to see hundreds of postgraduate students competing for one position. Many complain that it's very difficult to get employed nowadays.
"This year I felt it has been extremely hard to find a job as a postgraduate. It's probably because there are so many postgraduate students seeking jobs this year, and the competition in the job market is fierce. Plus, we just graduated without work experience."
"There are fewer job vacancies suitable for postgraduates as there were in the past."
Liu Xiaojun, department director of Beijing's Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, talks about the current employment rate for postgraduate students.
"The overall employment rate among postgraduates, graduates and other students is such that a higher academic degree brings a lower employment rate. Students who have graduated from vocational schools or technical secondary schools usually are 100-percent employed as frontline workers."
Most people believe a higher academic degree will mean a better job and higher salary. But things are different nowadays.
In recent years, the number of students enrolled in higher education across the country has been growing. In 2012, there were 584,000 postgraduate students enrolled in universities nationwide—a number 10 times higher than that of a decade ago.
Although universities have expanded their postgraduate enrollment, postgraduate students do not have much of an edge over their peers who have not pursued a higher academic degree.
