Chinese graduates are being encouraged by the government to work for non-public companies to boost employment and promote the private economy.
The Ministry of Education on Friday promised to break down barriers so graduates can find jobs in private firms. It said it would also improve the welfare of employees working for private companies, according to a ministry statement.
China has been under increasing pressure to create more white-collar jobs with more people attending college.
Many graduates are trying to grab a position in public offices because of better health care and housing welfare, and slim chances of being laid off.
Statistics showed that applicants taking the civil servant exam this year totaled 1.52 million. However, on average 77 applicants competed for one position, and the enrollment ratio was 7,192:1 for the most wanted government post.
