Study On Influencing Factors Upon Job Selection Tendency Of Secondary Vocational School Students

Strongly advocated by our government, secondary vocational education has been an indispensable and important component of the national education system. In recent years, the employment rate of secondary vocational school graduates has remained very high, but their employment quality is not high, which is caused by their lack of job selection cognition.
