Abstract

In recent years, with the increasingly growing enrollment of college students, it is becoming more and more difficult for students to get employed. The study on reasons for the unemployment issue of college students is of great importance and urgency under the current background of increasingly serious employment situation. In this paper, the author will briefly introduce the employment of college graduates in the past three years in China, and then economically describe and analyze the reasons for the unemployment of college students from aspects: structural unemployment, frictional unemployment and voluntary unemployment. On this basis, the author proposes a resolution to the problem of students' unemployment: to optimize the education system in colleges, and to establish a scientific training mechanism; to change students' concept of employment, and to improve students' employability; also, to broaden students’ horizons of employment, and to encourage them to start their own businesses.
