China's education authorities have said the number of Chinese college graduates this year will reach nearly 5.6 million, 640,000 more than that of last year.

But not nearly as many new jobs were created over the past year. The severity （严酷，残酷）of the unemployment situation for college graduates can definitely be felt.

An article from the website of Qianlong.com says that it's not new for students to have a hard time finding jobs.

The Chinese Academy of Social Sciences has published a report saying that about 20 percent of last year's nearly 5 million college graduates didn't find work upon graduation.

The article says the problems may exist not only on the job market, but also in the country's education system.

It says the current education system has failed to provide primary and secondary school students or even college students with appropriate professional capability training.

Therefore, the article suggests measures be take to improve students' comprehensive problem-solving skills.
