Given the bleak economic outlook and soaring unemployment rates in China, many young people are opting to pursue further studies in master’s and doctoral programs, significantly increasing the number of graduates. According to a recent article by a mainland psychology professor, this year’s number of master’s and doctoral graduates reached 1.1 million, making China the largest producer of doctoral and master’s degrees globally.
According to a report by Meituan, as of the first half of 2020, there were 60,000 master’s graduates and 170,000 bachelor’s graduates working as delivery drivers for Meituan.
However, positions for food delivery workers are now filled to capacity.
