Analysis of Employment Status and Countermeasures of Contemporary College Students

With the popularization of higher education and the deepening reform of college graduate employment system, the number of college graduates has risen year by year, while the employment rate has been declining with the slowdown of Chinese economic development. The employment problems of college students mainly manifest the following aspects: the number of employment increases, the employment rate declines, the employment satisfaction is not high, the phenomenon of employment discrimination is serious, employment has regional difference, there is a deviation of career choices among college students. Since 2003, the Chinese government has adopted a series of policies and measures to promote the employment of university graduates and has achieved some progress. However, it has not fundamentally alleviated the employment problem of college graduates in China. The employment problem of college students is caused by many factors, such as the imbalance of employment structure, the prominent contradiction between supply and demand, the failure of the content and structure of school education to adapt to social development. The solution to the employment problem of college students in China depends on not only the reform of the government policy system but also on the reform of the school education system and the change of graduates' concept of employment.
