  "The development of the digital economy, the deepening of digital-real integration, and the new industries, new models, and new occupations fostered in the process of forming new productive forces have provided new space for large-scale employment of young people." Member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, China Personnel Science Yu Xing'an, president of the institute, said that live streaming e-commerce has created a large number of jobs and spawned more than 30 new occupations such as Internet marketers, anchors, broadcast assistants, traders, short video slicers, etc., further driving the upstream and downstream industry chains. of new positions.

This model promotes diversified career development and makes a positive and sustainable contribution to employment growth. Digital platforms have also become a new career platform for the current youth group to find employment and start businesses.

  How to make full use of digital technology to further improve the matching efficiency between supply and demand for jobs is also a new topic faced by public employment service agencies and enterprises at all levels.

  With the development of digital technology, live broadcasting has emerged as an emerging form of recruitment and has become an important way of job hunting and recruitment.

Liu Guimei, a deputy to the National People's Congress and a quality inspector at Liaoning Changhua Printing and Packaging Co., Ltd., suggested making good use of live broadcasts to provide job seekers with more choices and space, and also build a "cloud bridge" for companies to communicate online.

  Nowadays, it has become a consensus among public employment service agencies at all levels to make good use of live broadcast for job promotion.

On January 3, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security issued the "Notice of the General Office of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security on Promoting the Application of Livestreaming in the Field of Employment and Public Services." The notice pointed out that livestreaming is an innovative practice for the integrated development of digital technology and public services. It has the characteristics of intuitive experience, instant interaction and accurate docking, and has broad application space in the field of employment services.

In 2023, the total number of Kuaipin live broadcasts will be nearly 5.5 million games have been held, attracting 250 million workers per month.

Workers, labor materials and labor objects are in the new era. Against the background of technological progress, factor productivity has increased, and live streaming platforms have transformed workers’ endowments into labor value, allowing factors of labor productivity to enter the production process, thus promoting the improvement of labor productivity.”
