Research report: These 10 new occupations are hotly recruited recently

China News Service, Beijing, November 4th: Since 2019, my country has released a total of 121 new occupations in 8 batches. A research report released in Beijing recently counted the 10 new occupations with the largest number of recently recruited positions, in order: Internet marketer, online anchor, all-media operator, online delivery person, electronic circuit designer, artificial intelligence engineering technician, business data analyst, integrated circuit engineering technician, cross-border e-commerce operation manager, and community health assistant.

This research report was released by Max, a third-party organization. The top ten hotly recruited new occupations are based on recruitment information publicly released by companies from July to August 2026. The report also analyzes the demand characteristics of these positions.

The top three most popular new occupations are related to online platforms and new media ecology

The report shows that from the perspective of occupation types, marketing and content and technology research and development positions have become the main subjects of hotly recruited new occupations. Among them, Internet marketers, network anchors, and omni-media operators, the top three most popular recruiting positions, are all closely related to online platforms and new media ecology, reflecting that digital platforms continue to generate demand for related positions.

In addition, electronic circuit designers and cross-border e-commerce operations managers, which are among the top ten popular new occupations, will be released in July 2025 and will receive market demand response quickly after their release.

Technical R&D positions have higher educational requirements

In terms of academic qualifications for hot-recruited new occupations, the report shows that some technology research and development positions require a bachelor's degree or above. Especially in the recruitment of artificial intelligence engineering and technical personnel, 32.6% of the positions clearly require a master's and doctoral degree. In the recruitment of integrated circuit engineering and technical personnel, this proportion is 17.3%, and the academic qualifications threshold is relatively high.

For positions such as omnimedia operators, Internet marketers, community health assistants, and cross-border e-commerce operations managers, the recruitment education threshold is mainly college degree or above, and talent selection relies more on job training and practical experience. The vast majority of online anchors and online delivery persons have no academic qualifications, accounting for 82.4% and 95.2% respectively. The screening mechanism is mainly set after entry.

Some new professions have strong ability to absorb fresh graduates

In addition, research shows that some new occupations have become important employment destinations for recent college graduates, and graduates have higher employment satisfaction. For example, among the undergraduates in the class of 2025, the employment satisfaction rate for integrated circuit engineering technicians, industrial Internet engineering technicians, intelligent manufacturing engineering technicians, big data engineering technicians, etc. is above 85%. At the same time, the professional barriers of these new occupations are also high. The correlation between the work and majors of graduates is above 80%. The graduates are mainly from computer, electronic information, automation, and mechanical majors.

For the 2025 class of higher vocational students, graduates who enter emerging technology positions such as intelligent manufacturing engineering technicians, industrial Internet engineering technicians, and integrated circuit engineering technicians have obvious advantages in salary compared to the average level of higher vocational colleges. The employment satisfaction of the group of live broadcast sales staff is 83%, and professional barriers are not high, with only 49% coming from the corresponding major.
