North China's Inner Mongolia autonomous region held a spring job fair to promote the employment of graduates from disadvantaged groups at Inner Mongolia Normal University's Saihan Campus in Hohhot, capital of the region, on April 28.

According to local media reports, 210 companies from various industries attended the job fair, providing 13,000 jobs.

In order to promote the employment of graduates from poor family backgrounds and families with national student loans, colleges and universities throughout the region issued preferential admissions tickets to graduates from disadvantaged groups to ensure they were given a fair shot at finding a job. Some companies gave priority to recruiting qualified graduates from disadvantaged groups.

This job fair is important to families with financial difficulties, and in the near future, local authorities plan to establish a long-term system for providing services to such families.
