"Through the university and enterprise docking platform, we can efficiently cooperate with universities and reduce the recruitment cost." said Li Xiangxing, a person in charge from the DHgate at the docking meeting for enterprises in Haishu District with outside universities. This is the first activity of the first e-commerce talent festival held in Haishu District. A dozen of other related activities will be launched for enterprises and e-commerce talents.
As the target of the current industrial structure optimization and upgrading, e-commerce is faced with the problem of talent shortage. Since 2013, Haishu District has planned 3.9 square kilometers for the construction of the e-commerce park to attract high-end e-commerce enterprises and expand the online volume and scale of the traditional service sector, industry and foreign trade. The 1200 graduates from 12 vocational colleges with e-commerce majors are far from enough for the demand of the e-commerce enterprises. To address the problem, Haishu District launched the first e-commerce talent festival to help enterprises to attract talents, invite experts to solve problems for enterprises and improve the e-commerce standards through training.
The festival started from May and will be over at the end of the year. Sponsored by Haishu District Talent Affairs Office and hosted by Haishu District Human Resource and Social Security Bureau, the festival is composed of over ten activities for the four sections of introduction, cultivation, service and platform. It helps the enterprises to attract talents through online and offline recruitment interaction. "By the festival, we plan to introduce over 20 leading high-end e-commerce talents from home and abroad, over 200 e-commerce operation talents and over 2000 e-commerce professionals, to solve the problem of e-commerce talent shortage." said a person in charge from Haishu District Human Resources and Social Security Bureau.
Besides introduction, the district aim to cultivate talents through the festival activities. So far, with the two university-enterprises docking activities, over ten universities or colleges have reached agreement with enterprises for order-style and oriented talent cultivation through cooperation. In 2014, over 3000 people will be trained for professional e-commerce knowledge. Besides, a service team composed of 15 experts will be organized to provide services for e-commerce enterprises and talents to solve such problems as housing, employment for spouses and schooling for their children.
Beyond Group, which started its e-commerce operation in 2010, is a typical enterprise for e-commerce transformation. At the docking meeting, the group promoted itself to over 10 universities or colleges to attract distinct talents. "Our e-commerce sales volume has increased from 150 million yuan in 2010 to 2 billion yuan in 2013. All our 11 sub-brands have been online with over 100 e-commerce store. So talents from universities or colleges are welcome to our group." said Xu Shumin, a related person in charge from Beyond Group.
