Graduates from universities or high schools in spring 2011 will face much the same difficulty in getting jobs as this spring's recruits, according to a survey by The Asahi Shimbun.
The survey of 100 companies found that 48 firms plan to hire next year roughly the same number of graduates as they do this spring.
Fifteen companies will hire more graduates next spring, while 21 will take on fewer. Sixteen companies were undecided. A year ago, the corresponding numbers were six firms hiring more, 37 hiring the same, 44 hiring fewer and 13 undecided.
As of February, 80 percent of university seniors had landed jobs. The figure was the lowest since 2000.
