Many Companies Unveil Over 500 Jobs and Internship Opportunities at Beijing Film Festival Job Fair
Beijing – Yesterday, a special recruitment event for the film, television, culture, and media industry of the 14th Beijing International Film Festival took place at Langyuan Station in Chaoyang District. The event attracted 36 employers primarily from the film, television, culture, and media sectors, offering more than 500 job and internship opportunities. With over 700 job seekers in attendance, the fair aimed to bridge the gap between graduates of film and television media majors and universities and related enterprises, drawing fresh talent into the industry.
Leading companies in the film and television industry such as Enlight Media, Huace Film and Television, Happy Twist, and Emperor Film had long queues of eager graduates at their booths, with job seekers discussing job content, salary, and office locations. This is the second job fair organized by the Beijing Film Festival, with a sevenfold increase in participating employers over last year, including industry leaders and municipal state-owned enterprises. Students from all Beijing universities could participate through both online and offline channels.
Zhao Jingyan, a fresh graduate from the Communication University of China specializing in advertising, expressed the benefits of offline communication at the fair. She found the face-to-face discussions with companies provided a deeper understanding of their specific requirements compared to online applications. Many graduates from outside Beijing specifically traveled to attend the fair, attracted by the presence of reputable companies in the media industry.
The fair also offered free services such as resume diagnosis and career planning by career counselors. Senior career instructor Xin Kejia noted that most resumes had issues like unclear job search intentions and a lack of practical experience. As competition for job opportunities intensifies, Xin advised students to align their skills and knowledge with the needs of potential employers.
More than 1,000 resumes were collected during the fair, with over 260 individuals expressing interest in employment. An online delivery option was also made available for those unable to attend the fair in person, with resume submissions accepted until April 26 through the “Waiting for You” section of the Beijing time client.
