After years of wandering, over 70% of international students are willing to return to China for development?
Studying abroad is still hot, and returnees are even hotter.
According to the latest data from the Ministry of Education, more international students will choose to return to China for development. In 20 18, the number of students studying abroad in China reached 662 1 10,000, an increase of 53,700 or 8.83% compared with 20 17. In 20 18, the total number of returned overseas students was 519,400, which was 38,500 more than that in 20 17, with an increase of 8%, the highest since the reform and opening up.
It is reported that before 10, only 1 out of every seven China students returned to China. However, at present, five out of every seven people have returned to China, and Xinhua News Agency rated it as "a rare wave of talent return in the history of a nation".
Extrapolating Nella urged international students to return home voluntarily.
In recent years, the overseas environment has formed a "thrust" for the purpose of studying abroad for China students. For example, in the United States, it is difficult for China students to find a job without a green card after graduating from school. If they have a company, they will draw lots to decide h-1b. But now the United States has tightened the long-term work visa policies such as H- 1B, and the refusal rate has been rising, greatly increasing the difficulty for China students to study in the United States.
In order to deeply understand and analyze the factors that affect overseas students' return to China, Mr. Wu Qiang, the founder of Wutongguo, recently went to the world famous universities such as the University of Chicago and the University of Pennsylvania. Through discussions with foreign students, it is found that 58% of them are optimistic about the domestic economic situation, and they think that the development trend of domestic industries is ideal. It can be seen that a benign workplace development space is the main demand of overseas talents. At the same time, "many job opportunities in China" accounted for 48%, which became the second biggest factor affecting the return of international students. In addition, family, culture, entrepreneurial environment and other factors have also formed a "pull" to urge overseas students to return to China.
When I came back from school, I was still a teenager, and over 60% of the returnees were post-90 s.
According to the data platform of Wutong University, young people under the age of 30 have become the main force of returnees with absolute advantage, of which 63.36% are international students under the age of 25, 3 1.7 1% are international students aged 25-30, and only 4.93% are middle-aged students over the age of 30. This set of data fully shows that returnees have become younger and younger, and gradually emerged after 95 and 00. I have been wandering overseas for several years, and I am still a teenager. I will definitely become the backbone of returnees in the future!
Nearly 80% of returnees have obtained master's degrees.
International students choose to go abroad, more to enrich their personal experience, get higher education and improve their competitive advantage in a diversified environment. 20 15 Up to now, overseas students with master's degrees have been the main group of returnees, accounting for more than 70%. By 20 18, the master's degree accounts for nearly 80%, and the returnees are highly educated. At the same time, the proportion of international students studying for MBA, doctoral degree and postdoctoral degree is always below 10%, which is due to the limitations of their majors. On the other hand, the tightening of foreign visas has also prompted international students to shorten their study time and choose to return to China for development.
The attraction of new first-tier cities in China to international students continues to rise.
Old first-tier cities are gradually saturated with population and environmental capacity, with strong competition and fast pace of life, and the price level is much higher than other cities. However, some emerging first-tier cities are influenced by favorable national policies, with rapid economic and social development and harmonious and beautiful urban architecture, ecology and living environment. Considering the economic, social, political and natural environmental factors of the city as a whole, more and more returnees tend to work in new first-tier cities.
According to the survey, in 20 18, the number of returnees who chose to work in the north, Guangzhou and Shenzhen decreased by 1.3% compared with the same period of last year, while the proportion of returnees who chose second-tier cities increased by 1.2 percentage points, reaching 28.3%. Obviously, although the foundation of Beishangguangshen is still very large, it is not the first choice for returnees. In recent years, Hangzhou has gradually developed into a representative of new first-tier cities in China. The proportion of returnees who choose to work in Hangzhou has increased by 0.66%, ranking first in the country, followed by Chengdu and Nanjing.
Domestic financial industry and IT industry have strong adsorption on returnees.
In the industry choice of overseas students, financial industry, IT service industry, manufacturing, education, wholesale and retail, entertainment and sports ranked first, accounting for 14%, 13%, 12%,10% and 8% respectively.
As can be seen from the above figure, the financial industry and IT industry are still more attractive to returnees than most industries. This is because most China students flock to business schools to choose finance, marketing and economics, while a few have studied solid accounting and IT. On the other hand, the development prospects of domestic financial industry and IT service industry are promising, but the training of domestic high-tech talents has been relatively weak.
Coupled with the high-paying positions in the industry, it will naturally attract the attention of returnees. According to the latest data from the National Bureau of Statistics, the average annual salary of 20129,000 yuan in the financial industry is as high as147,000 yuan in the IT industry, which is much higher than the average annual salary of 68,000 yuan for enterprise employees. This is also one of the reasons why cities with broad prospects for digital economy industries such as Chengdu and Hangzhou can attract returnees.
Over 30% of returnees earn less than 6000 yuan.
In the salary distribution of returnees, nearly 70% of returnees have a salary of more than 6,000 yuan. Among the returnees earning more than 6000 yuan, 600 1-8000 yuan accounts for 25%, 800 1- 10000 yuan accounts for 15%,10001-/.
In 20 18, more than 30% of the "returnees" who were employed for the first time actually earned less than 654.38+10,000 yuan a year, which was not much better than the graduates of domestic first-class universities. It can be seen that the international vision and academic upgrading brought by studying abroad can bring certain competitiveness to returnees with high-paying jobs, but the experience of returning to China after studying abroad does not mean that they can be "superior". How to recognize yourself and make good use of your advantages is far more important than temporary salary for returned students.
The pressure of domestic competition has surged, and language and communication skills have become the biggest advantages of returnees?
It is reported that the number of college graduates in 20 19 has reached 8.34 million, a record high! Faced with domestic college graduates who are larger and more familiar with the domestic market, the competitive pressure of overseas students returning to China to develop employment can be imagined. So, what advantages can they break through? According to the survey data of Wutongguo, more than 80% international students think they have certain advantages in language ability, cross-cultural communication ability and international vision, about 40% international students think they have some experience in international project cooperation, and about 30% international students think their professional advantages and understanding of overseas consumer demand are higher than those of domestic graduates. As for other aspects, it is based on the connections and resource dividends brought by studying abroad, helping returnees to handle foreign affairs more easily.
The moon is the hometown circle, wandering all the year round, and it is time to miss home after all. Nowadays, the international political and economic situation is complex and changeable, but the domestic situation is a prosperous and harmonious scene. The great rejuvenation of the motherland needs the full support of overseas students, and we are waiting for you here! Wutongguo, a one-stop online application platform for college students in China, pays tribute to every overseas student with a "Chinese dream" and a "strong country dream"!
