Abstract

The employment quality of Female graduate is an important and ignored problem. The investigation for 252 graduates graduated from five universities of Jiangxi province in China shows that the initial employment quality of male and female are respectively 81.33 and 80.32, male’ score is higher than female. But from the internal structure, the objective employment quality of females is 60.97, which is higher than the male of 60.95. That means female graduate’s employment environment is improved and distinctive institutional discrimination is reduced. At the aspect of subjective employment quality, female score of 19.35 is obviously lower than male’s 20.38. This is because that traditional gender labor division requires female takes more responsibility for family work, so female has more employment requirements and less profession devotion and has to lower evaluation for profession present and future. For that, female graduate should break restriction of traditional custom, strive for self-improvement. Employers and university also should build modern concept to eliminate the sexual discrimination still hidden in female employment and career development.
