(ECNS) – College students are more concerned with building esteem than salaries when it comes to seeking jobs, China's leading job recruitment services provider has said.
Guo Sheng, chief executive of Zhaopin Ltd, made the remarks at a year-end ceremony on Friday. The latest entrants into China's labor market are young people born in the 90s who have a different mindset about how to approach employment, he said.
Both employees and college students agree that "respect for employees" is the most important when evaluating employers, but the latter demand more esteem, harmony and fairness, according to a report by Zhaopin Ltd.
Students have showed a declining concern for salaries, but focus more on the management approaches by companies, the report said, adding that foreign-funded enterprises have become the first choice.
Employers should pay more attention to employees demands, both spiritually and financially, Guo added.
