The City University Business School set up a 30 million yuan fund to support the employment of graduates. Among them, the Career Launched Scheme cooperates with enterprises. The business school supports up to 30% of the salaries of successful graduates of CityU. The enterprise pays the remaining 70% of the salary. The maximum amount of funding for graduates is 6,000 yuan for a period of three months to encourage companies to hire new graduates.
In order to assist the graduates in finding employment, the business school also provides them with one-to-one employment guidance and an online job matching platform, which is planned to be maintained for at least one year. Huang Mingang, deputy dean of the School of Business, City University of Hong Kong, said that compared to financial assistance, the above programs provide psychological support for graduates. Even if an enterprise has a favorite graduate to apply, it may hesitate whether to hire because of economic conditions. The plan encourages the enterprise to hire a fresh graduate.

This year, less than half of graduates were hired.
