PhDs queue up for high school teaching jobs
This is the job-hunting season for college graduates, and it is also the time of year for high schools to recruit new teachers. In several high schools in Beijing, graduates with doctoral degrees have lined up for high school teaching position. These Ph.D. applicants, together with post-graduate master degree holders seeking the same jobs, enabled high schools administrations to be very selective about who they would hire. Ph.D.s intending to settle down to a high school teaching career are becoming increasingly common in many high schools in Beijing. One such school has so far received 105 resumes from candidates with doctoral degrees, and more than 3,000 resumes from post-graduate master degree holders. Some labor analysts pointed out that Ph.D.'s choice of high school teaching career had much to do with the improved pay and benefits package for teachers, the relatively stable working environment and society's greater recognition of the educational sector. On the other hand, as more and more people from previously expanded enrollment graduate from universities, competition in the job market has become more fierce. And the relative saturation of positions for Ph.D.s in college education has also contributed to these highly trained graduates seeking high school teaching jobs.
