Ms. Zhang, a young woman from Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, graduated from China University of Mining and Technology three years ago, but has yet to find a job, amidst high unemployment rates in China.
"I'm very worried about the fall job hunting season. I've applied to many places, but haven't received any interview invitations yet," Zhang said.
That's when Zhang's boyfriend, a PhD student at Zhejiang University, came up with a unique idea to lift her spirits, SCMP reported on October 6. He "established" a virtual company called "Love My Wife" and sent her a "job offer."
"We are pleased to announce that you have successfully passed our company interview with outstanding abilities and personal qualities," the offer letter stated. "You will be hired by Yêu Vợ (Love Your Wife) as CEO. Welcome to the Yêu Vợ family."

The "start date" was September 29th, which was also the couple's engagement day. "Before attending the new employee welcome party, please collect the items we provided: wedding dress, jewelry, engagement ring, and wedding ring."
The letter also stated that the "company" would provide shared accommodation and instructed Zhang to contact the "human resources manager" if he had any questions.
"When I received the letter, I found it a little funny, but very touching," Truong shared. "Sometimes I feel like time is always rushing, while I'm not ready. Although failure is common, I'm very grateful to have a boyfriend who always tries to help me feel better."
The story of this unique "job offer letter" quickly went viral on Chinese social media.
"What a wonderful boyfriend, so romantic," one commenter wrote. "Seeing others happy makes me happy too. Wishing you both a long and happy life together."
