According to Nikkei, data jointly released by Japan's Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology said: As of April 1, 2023,The employment rate for college graduates in 2023 is 973%, a year-on-year increase of 15%, and the employment rate of international students is also increasing year by year. This also makes many domestic fresh graduates who are "unemployed after graduation" very envious. The survey on the employment rate of Japanese graduates was conducted among 4,770 university students at 62 national, public, and private universities nationwide.
Based on the chart data above, we can see that the employment rate of college graduates is 973%, up 15%。Its employment rate in China's public universities accounts for 974%, up 1. year-on-year3%；Private universities account for 972%, up 1. year-on-year6%。
In terms of gender, the employment rate of male university students is 973%, up 2 percent year-on-year7%；The employment rate of female university students is 973%, up 02%。
From the perspective of liberal arts and sciences, the employment rate of liberal arts is 971%, up 1 year-on-year7%；The employability rate for science is 981%, up 07%。
So, why is Japan's employment rate so high?
1.Recruitment system for Japanese companies
Japanese companies have a relatively special recruitment system, which is called "".Customization within the system”。Most Japanese companies choose to hold "campus recruitment" events during the student's university year and issue offer letters to suitable candidates in advance. Japanese university students sign an employment agreement with the company they want to do before they graduate, and the company cannot cancel the employment agreement without reason after the agreement is signed, and the student can cancel the employment agreement according to his or her own needs. For college students who have not yet graduated, they have obtained a guaranteed job opportunity in advance. The vast majority of recent university graduates have successfully obtained internal qualifications and have been employed.
2.Employment in the post-pandemic era**
With the end of the pandemic, major Japanese companies have begun to expand their hiring, and some companies have seen significant wage increases. For example, All Nippon Airways, a major Japanese airline, has resumed the recruitment of fresh graduates in response to the sharp recovery of the aviation market after the epidemic. Nintendo announced that starting in April, starting salaries for new graduates will start at $2330,000 yen increased to 25 per month60,000 yen. Mizuho Bank will also raise the salary of new graduates this year from the original 2050,000 yen to 260,000 yen per month.
3.The general recognition of Japanese society
"Employment" can be said to be an important social responsibility in Japanese society, and it is also regarded by many Japanese people as an important way to realize their self-worth. In this environment, fresh graduates are under pressure from family, society and self-expectations, which also motivates them to actively strive for employment opportunities and lay the foundation for the future.
In addition, the root cause of the high employment rate of new graduates in Japan is that:Japan's aging population and declining birthrate are serious。Companies need more human resources, but the younger generation is decreasing year by year, and the supply of human resources is in short supply, resulting in a higher employment rate in Japan.
International students are employed in Japan
In order to increase the employment rate of international students in Japan, Japan** and universities are also actively providing employment support for international students. The university provides opportunities for international students to interact with business professionals, offers practical and professional courses, and provides training in employability skills for international students. Japan on the one hand againExpand the number of international studentsEven many Japanese universities have appropriately relaxed the admission requirements, which also means that international students are more likely to enjoy high-quality educational resources. On the other hand,The threshold for various types of visas in Japan is also being loweredUndergraduate students can get a permanent residence (green card) in Japan in as little as one year. Friends without academic background can also apply for Japanese nationality by living and working in Japan for a long time.
In order to retain international students to work in Japan, Japan has also introduced many favorable policies. The "Fifth Conference on the Creation of the Future of Education" organized by Fumio Kishida made the following decision: to send 500,000 Japanese people abroad by 2033It attracts 400,000 international students to Japan
In addition, according to statistics,Currently, the employment rate of international students in Japan is 48%, and Japan** plans to increase the employment rate of international students to 60% within 10 yearsThis means that by that time, more than half of international students will be able to achieve their goal of finding a job in Japan.
