20 19, the difference between the number of people studying abroad and the number of people returning to work is narrowing year by year.

Recently, the reporter learned from the spring special job fair for returned overseas students in Beijing that the enthusiasm of returned overseas students in China is higher than in previous years. Experts said that due to the good entrepreneurial employment atmosphere in China, the difference between the number of people studying abroad and returning home has been narrowing year by year.

According to the data of the Ministry of Education, the number of people studying abroad in China reached 523,700, and the number of people returning to China reached 409,654.38+00,000. Compared with the statistical data of 20 13, the gap between the number of people studying abroad and the number of people returning to work has narrowed year by year.

Lu Changjiang, deputy director of the Beijing Overseas Scholars Center, believes that domestic development prospects and entrepreneurial atmosphere are the key factors to attract overseas students to return to China for employment and entrepreneurship.

The interviewed experts also said that on the one hand, international students have broad horizons and strong adaptability, and they have certain competitive advantages in the domestic job market; On the other hand, they also face practical difficulties such as poor employment information.

According to the "20 15 White Paper on Studying in China" issued by New Oriental Education Technology Group, the main problems encountered by overseas students when they return to China for employment are: they can't adapt to the domestic workplace culture, their knowledge doesn't match their jobs in China, and their employment needs don't match their own abilities.

Lin Yuan, who came back from England, has been practicing abroad for half a year, but because of the lack of reliable employment information, she has been helping her family's pharmaceutical companies. She just finished an on-site interview at DBS Bank. She said: "Last year, she missed the recruitment season in China because she was preparing her graduation thesis abroad, so this year she attended a job fair specially for international students. At the same time, the employers attending the conference are also enterprises that want to recruit international students. "

In view of the employment problems encountered by returned overseas students, industry insiders suggest that international students should make career development plans as soon as possible, make use of internships in winter and summer vacations, and keep an eye on the domestic employment market information with the help of special job fairs for returnees and netizens from domestic universities.
