Alibaba's Taotian Group — which includes Taobao and Tmall — is hiring 2,000 fresh graduates this year. It comes at an opportune time for China's fresh graduates as youth unemployment hit a record high in June. Alibaba's hiring over 2,000 fresh graduates this year – signaling that it views an end to China's tech crackdown. China's unemployment rate for those in the 16 to 24-year-old bracket hit a record high of 21.3% in June — meaning one in five youths were unemployed. The development is a reversal after waves of job cuts in China's tech sector following a regulatory crackdown that started in 2020 and wiped $1.1 trillion off the market value of its Big Tech firms.

REUTERS/Aly Song Acquire Licensing RightsSHANGHAI, Aug 16 (Reuters) - Alibaba Group's (9988.HK) work communication and collaboration platform DingTalk will split from the company's cloud division, according to two sources close to the company. Alibaba's Cloud Intelligence Business Group did not immediately reply to a request for comment on the matter. Though the Slack-like DingTalk will split structurally from Alibaba's Cloud Business Intelligence unit, the sources said it would continue to work closely with the cloud division technology-wise. The tech giant announced the split of its business in March and has said the cloud division was likely to IPO by May next year. Alibaba Group last week reported better than expected results for its first quarter, but sales for its Cloud Intelligence Business Group, a major growth driver outside of e-commerce, reported the smallest revenue growth among the group's business units of 4%.
