University graduates looking for work in a city in eastern China will be given "job-hunting maps" showing which companies are hiring and how to find them, state media reported Tuesday.
The maps will be distributed for free at universities, bus stations and employment agencies in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, from this month, the English-language Global Times reported.
"We clearly indicate which companies are currently hiring and provide detailed information to help undergraduates looking for a job in Hangzhou, especially new arrivals to the city," said Yu Yukuai, 22, who created the map.
"Hangzhou has lots of jobless undergrads right now. We want to provide a way to let them know who's hiring, where to go to relax, and what they should be on the lookout for during their search, Yu added.
Yu, who works in an employment agency, said the map was being funded by his boss and would be updated every month.
"There are 70 companies working with us now, each of them scrutinised by us beforehand. We want to make sure the information on our map is legit," Yu said.
China is struggling to contain joblessness, which it sees as necessary to stop social unrest.
China said last month that about three million university graduates, including those who left last year, were still unemployed.
