Zuo Baochan used to dream of becoming an executive financial planner during her undergraduate days, but now she has lowered her expectations to simply getting an entry-level position as a bank teller.

"It's too hard to find a job," Zuo told China Daily at an employment fair mainly for postgraduates on Friday. "Spending two more years in graduate school, we thought we could get the edge to ask for a high-paying job, but it turns out we were overly optimistic."

As of Friday, the 25-year-old had handed out more than 150 resumes at three job fairs since September but hadn't found a suitable job.

At Friday's crowded job fair, Zuo was among some 36,000 students discovering that their master's degrees weren't bringing them the offers they had expected in the toughest employment year in a long time.

According to the Ministry of Education, a record number of 7.27 million students will graduate from colleges across China next year, 280,000 more than the number this year.

The number of postgraduate students also keeps growing. In Beijing alone, about 79,000 master's degree holders will flood the job market next year, 7,000 more than this year, according to the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Human Resources and Social Security.

At the job fair on Friday, more than 750 employers received 148,000 resumes while offering only 9,500 opportunities for job interviews, according to its organizing committee.

However, employers anticipated a high rejection rate during the interview process, citing students' excessively high salary expectations.

Ma Zhaohui, the recruitment manager of Beijing Join-Cheer Software Development Co Ltd, said graduates' focus on salaries would repel potential employers despite their elite academic performance or practical experience.

"If they hadn't started by naming a figure, the company might have offered them good pay. In fact, most recruiters could afford the amount the candidates asked for," Ma said.

"But they have to earn it by proving their ability."

Li Lingli, a recruiting official from the Beijing Performance & Art Group Co Ltd, made similar comments, stressing that employers won't hesitate to lure talent with lucrative offers if they feel they are really worth the money.

According to the Chinese College Graduates' Employment Annual Report, the average monthly wage of a postgraduate's first job was 4,500 yuan ($740) in 2012, while more than 52 percent of respondents expected it to be at least 6,000 yuan, said a recent survey published on education portal eol.cn.

Some graduates, however, are prepared to accept reality.

Xie Fenghao, who studied political education at Tianjin Normal University, said he was looking to land an entry-level job as a springboard to a better one in the future.

Experts agreed that was a smart move.

Xiong Bingqi, vice-president of 21st Century Education Research Institute, said he encourages graduates to better their positions by starting out with low-profile jobs.

"The priority is to find a job, not to find the best or most comfortable one, which is actually impossible," said Xiong.

"By lowering their job expectations," he said, "postgraduates will find it easier to start their careers and eventually reach the place they would like to be".
