If you are a recent college graduate in China and happen to be a “Virgo”, your chances of getting a job may be much less than your “Gemini” or “Pisces” competitors, according to the Liaoning-based Bandao Morning News. Xu Jingmin, a college graduate and recent victim of such “zodiac discrimination”, said she was disheartened after finding out she matched all the qualifications of a job opening at a travel agency except its requirement for the applicant’s zodiac sign. “We are looking for Geminis, Libras, and Aquarius,” the ad allegedly said. This means Xu, who is a “Leo,” was disqualified. Stereotypes are also held against ”Virgo” and “Libra” job seekers, who employers believe would be “picky” and jump ship sooner than their peers from other Zodiac signs, according to the report.
