China requires state-owned enterprises to give priority to hiring recent graduates from 2026 and those who graduated in previous years but remain unemployed.

Foreign media: China requires state-owned enterprises to prioritize hiring recent graduates from the 2026 cohort, as well as those who graduated in the past two years but remain unemployed, with the initiative continuing through December. Meanwhile, the government will establish a centralized recruitment platform, disseminating job postings via public employment service networks and university career portals.

In the private technology sector, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security has unusually instructed local employment departments to survey job vacancies at major internet companies and urge them to offer more positions to recent graduates. A special one-month recruitment campaign will be launched in June, featuring live-streaming job fairs—employers will promote roles in real time using formats similar to TikTok-style live broadcasts, interacting with job seekers and answering their questions.

Specialized job fairs will also be held in regions with high concentrations of internet companies, including Beijing, Shanghai, and Sichuan Province.
