Chinese students in Australia face rapidly changing job market

Chinese students in Australia face a rapidly changing and increasingly competitive job market at home and abroad but their overseas study and cross-cultural experience still offer opportunities for employment, according to the latest research and analysis.

Australia remains a favored education destination, but students from China, who comprise the largest group in the country's foreign student population, encounter growing challenges when transitioning from the classroom to the workplace, according to scholars' findings in the education research group of the China Studies Centre at the University of Sydney.

Their report, which was presented on Monday and focused on the employability of students, highlighted key areas like changes in the evolving recruitment criteria and the role of digital and technological channels such as artificial intelligence in the hiring process.
