Description

Although a nationwide labour survey did not include unemployment rates, we will look at the Chinese labour market using statistics from job placement services.1 According to the latest statistics on job offers and applications, as of the January-March quarter of 2014, there were 1.293 million young job seekers who graduated in the last year or earlier but had yet to find a job through employment agencies in 102 major cities (MHRSS 2014). As the population of these major cities accounts for approximately 46.7% of the total population of large and mid-size Chinese cities, we can estimate that the number of young job seekers who have graduated, but have yet to find a job, totals more than two million.

Using data from the survey, I also tried to estimate the unemployment rate in those 102 major cities.
