Hong Kong to Launch 30,000 Youth Employment and Internship Places in First Quarter of 2027

Hong Kong plans to launch 30,000 youth employment and internship places in the first quarter of 2027. The South China Morning Post reported on 3 November 2026 that the scheme will provide employment and internship opportunities, but the government must clarify before applications open whether the scheme is positioned as a short-term boost to manpower or a lasting improvement in professional skills. The same report cited an annual Baptist University survey showing that the starting-salary advantage of bachelor's degree graduates over sub-degree graduates had narrowed by 17 percentage points. The report did not mention specific application arrangements, eligibility or the allocation of places under the scheme.
