Abstract

In recent years, due to the impact of COVID-19, the global economic situation has been sluggish, China's economic growth rate has slowed down, the supply-demand contradiction in the labor market has become prominent, and the employment pressure for college students is constantly increasing. This article uses a questionnaire survey to conduct research and measurement from two dimensions: human capital and employment quality. The results show that human capital has a significant impact on employment quality, among which academic performance and various certificates have a significant positive effect on employment quality, while campus experience and internship experience have no significant impact on employment quality.
