In China, Jobs Tight For College Grads

An in mainland China with the current economic environment, even China's most highly educated are finding it hard to get a job.

Recent college graduates are finding far fewer job opportunities--and its becoming a national problem. In an economy built on low-end manufacturing, there just arent enough white-collar jobs to go around.

According to the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, more than one out of every four college graduates last year could not find work.

The academy also estimates that the unemployment rate is more than twice as high as the official number.

Desperate graduates are looking for jobs as nannies or maids. Some head to the countryside in hopes of securing civil service jobs.

But with enrollment in China's universities rising steadily and the economy shrinking rapidly, the job situation for China's educated youth looks to get worse.
