Graduates hopping jobs
CHINESE students who graduated from college in 2006 have, on average, changed jobs twice in the first three years of their career, according to Mycos, an education consulting and assessment agency.
The Report on Employment of College Graduates findings echo a survey by the Employment Guidance Center of Beijing some years ago, which said 70 percent of college graduates changed jobs in the first three years.
In the Pearl River Delta, a survey by Ruiqi Human Resource Company found that fewer than 20 percent of college graduates remained in their first company for more than a year.
The Mycos report said 33 percent of respondents changed jobs for better career prospects, 25 percent due to low pay and 13 percent wanted to try a new profession.
"The job-hopping fever among graduates will destabilize the companies and do harm to the long-term development of companies," said Zha Jianzhong, a Beijing Jiaotong University professor.
The eagerness of employers to recruit staff and the tight job market contributed to the job-hopping rate, he said.
It also indicated that some companies have disappointed graduates by having no long-term development strategies, Zha said.
