labor - More education does not guarantee a job

Even though more Chinese get better educated, it does not mean they land easier into a job, says this article by official newswire Xinhua. Earlier I wrote already about b-schools and their graduates.
It notes that the unemployment rate of those with a higher educaton has been on the rise. Skilled workers and technicians have no problem to land in a job, but the higher educated often miss the match with the labor market.

"College graduates usually demand better salaries and working environments," said Yu Huihong, director of Shenzhen Municipal Labor Bureau. "But most lack practical knowledge or skills and sometimes what they learn at school cannot be used at their job posts."
