China recruits college graduates for social jobs
China has launched its first social worker recruiting event for college graduates. Beijing is offering 2000 social worker posts for fresh college graduates this year.
Over 16,000 students are taking the qualification exam on Saturday. Around one third of the candidates have PhD and Masters degrees. The students will be competing for various positions, including jobs in community resident committees and community health care stations. It’s expected that the city will expand the program within the next 2 years.
