Faced with a tough job market, fresh graduates are dreaming of running their own businesses instead.
But a recent survey has showed that such ambitions lack the required support and remain just that - dreams.
The Shanghai Municipal Employment Promotion Center poll of 1,276 graduates in several universities and colleges in the city, released last Friday, showed 59.78 percent of respondents considered the possibility of setting up a company or at least a small store.
"But they just stop at the 'thinking' stage," it stated.
Respondents put the top reasons for not going it alone down to a shortage of investment and a lack of business opportunity.
They also listed lack of business experience and social networks, the need for advanced study and objections from family members as factors that stood in their way.
More than 90 percent of the interviewees said they would rather take up a job after graduating and then consider starting their own business two or three years down the road.
Guo Bing, a senior student in Shanghai International Studies University majoring in English, decided he wanted to be his own boss last year.
But he is looking for a job first. "If I fail to find a satisfying job, I would like to establish a company in exhibition services," Guo said.
The Shanghai native has some relatives working in a local printing plant.
With their help, Guo hopes to produce exhibition brochures at a relatively low price. He is also confident that his English language skills can help him do well in the industry.
"Social networking is an important factor leading to business success," Guo said.
Guo said that the shortage of graduate jobs is the main reason driving more university students to set up a business right after their graduation.
The parents of university graduates are more willing to help their children start up alone, the survey showed.
"Once you win the support of your family, you have won half the battle," Guo added.

面對(duì)目前嚴(yán)峻的就業(yè)形勢(shì)，應(yīng)屆大學(xué)畢業(yè)生們紛紛做起了“創(chuàng)業(yè)夢(mèng)”。
但近日的一項(xiàng)調(diào)查表明，大學(xué)生們的“創(chuàng)業(yè)夢(mèng)”因得不到應(yīng)有的支持，還僅僅是個(gè)“夢(mèng)”而已。
上海市就業(yè)促進(jìn)中心對(duì)上海幾所大專及本科院校的共1276名畢業(yè)生進(jìn)行了調(diào)查。上周五公布的調(diào)查結(jié)果顯示，59.78%的受訪大學(xué)生表示可能會(huì)考慮開一家公司或至少開個(gè)小店。
“但目前他們還只停留在‘想’的階段。”
受訪大學(xué)生認(rèn)為，阻礙大學(xué)生創(chuàng)業(yè)的最主要原因是資金不足和沒有好的創(chuàng)業(yè)方向。
此外，經(jīng)驗(yàn)不足、缺乏社會(huì)關(guān)系、需要繼續(xù)深造以及家人反對(duì)也是阻礙創(chuàng)業(yè)的主要因素。
超過90%的受訪者稱，他們打算畢業(yè)后先找份工作，干個(gè)兩三年后再自己創(chuàng)業(yè)。
上海外國(guó)語大學(xué)英語專業(yè)四年級(jí)學(xué)生郭兵去年有了“自己當(dāng)老板”的想法。
但他現(xiàn)在正在找工作。他說：“如果找不到滿意的工作，我打算開一家提供展會(huì)服務(wù)的公司。”
郭兵是上海本地人，他的一些親戚在當(dāng)?shù)氐囊患矣∷S工作。
郭兵希望通過親戚的幫助，能以較低的成本印刷展商手冊(cè)。此外，小郭認(rèn)為自己精通英語也是做好這一行的有利條件。
他說：“社會(huì)關(guān)系是創(chuàng)業(yè)成功的一個(gè)重要因素。”
小郭說，嚴(yán)峻的就業(yè)形勢(shì)是越來越多的大學(xué)生一畢業(yè)就走上創(chuàng)業(yè)之路的主要原因。
調(diào)查表明，大多數(shù)家長(zhǎng)愿為子女創(chuàng)業(yè)提供幫助。
小郭說：“贏得了家人的支持，就成功了一半。”
