Hello, this is China Deep Dive. We have all the information you need to know about China at present. Today's topic is:
China is facing a growing employment crisis among university and graduate students. Even graduates from top 985 and 211 universities are struggling to secure jobs, while millions of young people are entering an increasingly competitive job market.

After years of intense study, many graduates are discovering that a prestigious degree no longer guarantees stable employment. Some face repeated rejection because they lack work experience, while others are forced into low-paid jobs, flexible employment, or the gig economy.

This video looks at the real job-hunting experiences of Chinese university, master's, and doctoral graduates, the pressure behind China's education system, rising youth unemployment, and the growing gap between official employment figures and people's experiences.

From 985 master's graduates receiving zero job offers to millions turning to flexible employment, the stories reveal the growing uncertainty facing China's young generation.
