"Deaf people can do everything, except hear," she said.

She added that while it won't be too difficult for her to find a job on the strength of her abilities, the COVID-19 epidemic has made job hunting more complicated.

"In fact, the large number of college graduates-about 10.76 million people-shocked me and my peers. It's not easy for a nondisabled person to land a job, let alone deaf people," she added.

She said that though she will keep looking for suitable jobs, she will continue to learn sign language.

"I've found that sign language is part of my beliefs and mother tongue as a deaf person, so I'm happy to pay more attention to studying it," she said.
