Through the analysis of the two logistic regression models, the three factors of social network size, network intensity and social trust have significant influence on the employment information of migrant workers. By expanding the social network size of migrant workers, to enhance the social network of interactive exchanges and strengthen social trust and other means, is conducive to the establishment of migrant workers between the information transmission relationship.
