Traditionally, the unemployment rate has always risen around two periods: One is when graduating students first enter the job market, between August and October of every year. The other, "flea season," is just after Chinese New Year, when many people, having collected their year-end bonuses, jump from one job to another.
傳統來說，每年的畢業季，以及農曆年過後的跳槽旺季，失業率必定會上揚，是所謂的「季節性失業」。
