It's relatively difficult for logistics majors to find a job in 2009 | Wulin Blog Network

A week-long fiery campus job fair met a cold response yesterday at Guangdong University of Technology's University Town campus. The number of participating companies dropped by half, and around ten o'clock, applicants began to leave in droves. The booths of small and medium-sized enterprises were particularly deserted. A reporter's investigation found that 90% of logistics majors indicated an intention to switch careers. At the science and engineering session, very few women were recruited. "If I were the interviewer, I would want men too. Now I feel like I chose the wrong major," said Xiao Huang, a materials science major, helplessly to the reporter. Yesterday's recruitment fair at Guangdong University of Technology was a specialized session for architecture, automation, machinery, and other science and engineering disciplines. Looking around, almost all males were seen. There were only a few females interspersed in the interview queues. Although the number of positions and people recruited by companies at this recruitment fair was relatively large, indicating a high demand for science and engineering graduates, many positions favored male candidates due to factors such as the nature of the work and working environment. Some positions even explicitly recruited only men, leading female applicants to be frequently rejected and lamenting that they had entered the wrong field.
