New Graduates Finding Jobs in China (Mandarin Optional)

The New York Times reports:
Shanghai and Beijing are becoming new lands of opportunity for recent American college graduates who face unemployment nearing double digits at home.

Even those with limited or no knowledge of Chinese are heeding the call. They are lured by China’s surging economy, the lower cost of living and a chance to bypass some of the dues-paying that is common to first jobs in the United States.
It's sad to think recent college graduates have a better opportunity in China than California or New York.
