The Chinese University of Hong Kong

Graduates of CUHK have always enjoyed excellent career prospects. Our knowledgeable, globally-minded and culturally-sophisticated graduates are highly welcomed by prospective employers. In 2023, about 90% of the respondents to our annual Graduate Employment Survey were given their first job offers by the end of September in the year they graduated from their first degrees.

The Career Planning and Development Centre of the Office of Student Affairs prepares our students for the workplace by connecting and initiating job opportunities for students; providing full-time, part-time and non-term time job information through CU Job Link; organising internship and mentorship programmes; conducting career counselling; and co-ordinating career guidance workshops. The Centre also assists employers in recruitment of graduates by organising recruitment talks, career fairs and on-campus tests and interviews.

Our graduates are employed in diversified sectors. 58.9% of our graduates join the Commerce and Industry sector, followed by Education (20.4%), Social and Public Organisations (17.9%) and Government (2.8%).

In terms of career fields, in the employment survey of CUHK graduates conducted at the end of 2023, the top five fields that our graduates engaged in were Teaching, Information Technology, Medical and Health Services, Banking / Finance, and Administration / Management.
