The labor shortage at the end of last year has been a big headache for many employers in manufacture and service industry. To avoid similar trouble, the employers are advertising opportunities with handsome salaries.

It's easy to find a job now. That's the thought most job haunters share at one of the major job fairs in Qingdao, a coastal city in Shandong Province.

Du Yibin has been working in the city for more than a decade. And he's now going for a job with higher pay.

Du Yibin said, "I don't have much skills. I just want to find a job with higher pay, at about two to three thousand yuan per months."

Even without much expertise, it won't be difficult for Du to find a job, because he has much more choices.

Sun Weilin, Vice Director of Local Employment Service Center, said, "This employment fair offers more than four thousand jobs in one day alone. A quarter of them are in manufacture, and a lot of others are in food and beverage industries. It will provide 50-thousand jobs in the coming months."

At the same time, employers are raising salaries to attract more job haunters.

Staff from employment agency said, "The minimum salary is above 25-hundred yuan per month. For those skilled workers, they can get at least 35-hundred yuan. The highest could top six-thousand yuan."

More job opportunities with higher salaries, that's the scenario also seen in job markets in Nanjing city, capital of east China's Jiangsu Province.

Though the number of job seekers has dropped compared to that of last year, employers are still confident that generous offers will help end their nightmare of labour shortage.
