South China's Guangzhou City, a major destination for migrant farm workers, plans to extend online job interviews to farmers in 55 administrative districts nationwide this year.
The plan was unveiled days after the Guangdong provincial legislature adopted a proposal to air a TV channel that informs migrant workers of local job vacancies and job training.
Guangzhou, capital of Guangdong Province, launched the "remote job interview" system in 2003 in 45 administrative districts including Bose in Guangxi and Chengdu in Sichuan.
It plans to extend the system to another 55 other districts this year, according to Zhao Baoying, director of Guangzhou Human Resources Market Service Center, Wednesday.
Guangzhou companies post job information into the system's database for jobseekers to search. Zhao says that job interviews can also be conducted online.
An estimated 600,000 migrant workers have left China's major manufacturing center of Guangdong Province after the worldwide financial crisis hit the region.
Guangdong provincial human resources and social security department predicted that in the first quarter of this year, the province would see an influx of 2.6 million migrant workers from outside Guangdong who don't have clear job offers.
