Overview
State Grid Corporation of China recruits university graduates in batches, with a unified written test followed by interviews run by each unit.

Levels or stages
For 2025 recruitment, the company ran four batches: a special batch for the national dispatch centres (国网调专项), then batches one, two and three. Which subsidiaries recruit in each batch depends on their needs and is stated in their own notices. Initial planned dates:
| Batch | Notice published | Written test |

Exam pattern
The written test is organised by batch, and its scope is set out in the subject syllabi published on the platform. Scores are released within 3 working days after the test through the personal centre on the platform. Interviews are organised by each unit under the company's unified requirements, and the company approves the final list before units publish proposed hires within 2 working days.
How to apply
Fill in your profile on the official recruitment platform (zhaopin.sgcc.com.cn) and upload your 学信网 student record verification report. The college and major must match that report. Details cannot be changed after submission.
Choose employing units after each unit's notice is published. Per batch you may list up to 3 second-level units, and under each up to 2 city-level or county-level units.
Applicants shortlisted for the written test are notified 1 to 2 weeks before it. If several units invite you, you may sit the test for only one, and the score is valid across units.
