Young People Views on Employment


This survey reveals that 5 per cent of the respondents were unemployed. For those who are at work, most of them found their present job within a month. But two-third of them considered it difficult to get a job at present. The main criterion for an ideal occupation are high salary, stability of work, good career prospects and interest. Most looked for a job through job advertisement and friend¡¦s recommendation. Though the Government¡¦s labour importation scheme did not affect most of the respondents, they believe it affected the rise of employment and thought the Government to stop the scheme.
