Wide of football pitch \u003cbr/\u003eFinding a job after graduating from university can be hard at the best of times.\u003cbr/\u003eBut, this year, it seems students in China will have an even tougher battle on their hands.\u003cbr/\u003eNew trade figures show the country's economy is cooling much more sharply than expected.\u003cbr/\u003eChina boasts the world's second largest economy.\u003cbr/\u003eBut it is also a heavily populated nation, meaning stiff competition when trying to land your first job fresh out of university.\u003cbr/\u003eThis year, nearly seven million graduates will be attempting to get work.\u003cbr/\u003eWan Xinyan, a 21-year-old student at Beijing Language University, is among them.\u003cbr/\u003eHe is aware that companies can be quite picky when recruiting.\u003cbr/\u003e\"To me, (when finding a job) the most difficult part is that... the kind people that a company wants the most is those who can adapt to a real working situation immediately. Or those who have the potential and willingness to learn. I don't think I'm one of the former,\" he says. \u003cbr/\u003eChina's economic growth has slowed this year and is expected to fall further due to weak global demand and an effort by the Chinese central bank to cool a credit boom.\u003cbr/\u003eThe country's leaders claim that they want to pursue slower, more self-sustaining growth based on domestic consumption, reducing reliance on trade and investment. \u003cbr/\u003eBut it will only add to the uncertainty for students like Wan, who has always had his sights set on landing work.\u003cbr/\u003e\"Since starting college, the goal of other people might be going abroad or having a masters degree, but mine was finding a job,\" he says. \u003cbr/\u003eWan has been putting in lots of work outside his studies to build up skills and knowledge that he hopes will make him stand out from the crowd. \u003cbr/\u003eHe was a university recruitment ambassador during his first year of studies, organised a not-for-profit event in his second year and has been involved in a web development project.\u003cbr/\u003eWan has also landed an internship at marketing consulting company \"Youthology\" too. \u003cbr/\u003e\"I thought the time might be tight if I started an internship in the third year.

And I have classes to attend in my third year, so I only write research afterwards.\"\u003cbr/\u003eWan believes that traditional methods of teaching do not equip students with all the skills they need to get a foot on the career ladder.\u003cbr/\u003e\"I hope that higher education can be more diverse and less administrative. More diverse means to present those similar courses among universities in a more deeper and unique way, for the similarity of those classes is not good to students or their career,\" he says.\u003cbr/\u003e\"Lots of teachers are being trapped in an administrative circle and don't have enough attention to put on education. If universities can be less administrative, students can have better teachers and better courses, so that they can gain more knowledge.\"\u003cbr/\u003eWan is hoping that all of his extra work both inside and outside university will set him on the path to success, at a time when China's booming success appears to be slowing down.\u003cbr/\u003eChina's exports fell by 3.1 percent in June compared with a year earlier and imports contracted by 0.7 percent, customs data showed Wednesday ( 10 July).\u003cbr/\u003eThe International Monetary Fund on Tuesday ( 9 July) scaled back its China 2013
