He said that the group recruitment is held at the beginning of the spring semester because they want to find the talents as soon as possible.

During the job fair, a graduate student majoring in biology from Fuyang city said: "The reason why I want to stay in Hefei is because biomedicine is one of the key industries in Hefei and Hefei Biomedical Industrial Park is located in the Hefei high-tech zone. Hefei has a good talent policy, which is also very attractive to me."
