Talented recruits were in high demand on the Chinese mainland in the first quarter, especially in the State-owned enterprises sector, according to an employment survey.
Only 8.2 percent of 589 corporations that took part in the survey said they had not increased their head count.
The RMG Recruitment Insider Survey is a nationwide quarterly review of hiring carried out by RMG Selection, a China-focused international recruitment and human resources consultancy.
A total of 99.1 percent of State-owned enterprises hired new talent in the first three months of this year. Joint ventures had the lowest hiring rate, but 81.8 percent of them had new vacancies.
Sophie Li, marketing and operations director at RMG Selection, said, "Job-market activity can be measured by two factors - the job-hopping rate and the recruitment rate.
"We can see from the first-quarter survey that 91.8 percent of companies introduced new talent, and this demand continues.
"Part of this activity can be attributed to the boom in starting innovative businesses," Li said. "Encouraged by policies and the market, many company executives have started their own businesses, providing more opportunities for job seekers."
