北上广不再是求职者最爱

 　　The employment report released by China's largest recruitment site, zhaopin.com, is based on an index which looks at job supply and demand in the country's labor¹ market.

　　On a national level, first-quarter job vacancies² received an average of 26.1 resumes, down from 45.2 in the same period last year.

　　Job seekers no longer prefer to work in the most developed cities, including Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, which are off the top five attractive-cities list.

　　Second-tier cities such as Chengdu, Xi'an and Shenyang have become more popular for their vast development potential.

　　Analysts³ say the growing stress of life and work, deteriorating⁴ environments, and restrictions⁵ on buying properties and cars have made first-tier cities less appealing for job hunters.

　　As to the types of companies job seekers consider as priorities, the report reveals that most of them are willing to work for state-owned enterprises, public institutions and foreign-funded companies.

　　In terms of industries, jobs in insurance companies, intermediary services and health services are unpopular among job seekers due to steretypes within those sectors⁶.

　　Experts from Zhaopin.com advise job seekers to consider micro-enterprises where requirements are less demanding and more opportunites are provided for career advancement⁷.
