As competition for jobs is getting tougher in China, an increasing number of college graduates choose to leave the large cities for countryside to work as village officials. People’s opinions toward it differ sharply. As far as I am concerned, it is a wise choice to work as village official in countryside.
In the first place, college graduates can apply their professional knowledge to construct countryside and make a great contribution to its development. They can introduce some new concepts in developing and managing countryside so that the gap between large cities and countryside can be narrowed. Second, college graduates also get some benefits from working as village officials. It provides a good stage for them to project and achieve their value. In addition, it reduces the competition for jobs in large cities to some extent that college graduates choose to work as village officials. Some college graduates work in the countryside and others work in large cities so that the competition between city and countryside can keep balance to some extent.
In a word, it is a good and wise choice for college graduates to work as village officials and more graduates should be given chance to serve countryside.
