Abstract
Employment is an important issue related to the national economy and people's livelihood, and in the context of the expansion of higher education, the impact of education mismatch on the quality of labour force employment cannot be ignored. The article adopts the 2020 CFPS micro survey data to analyse the mechanism of the impact of education mismatch on employment quality. The empirical regression results based on panel data show that in terms of wage income, over-educated people suffer from wage penalty effects; regarding job satisfaction, the regression results of ordered probit model reflect that over-educated people have lower job satisfaction. Therefore, how to rationally allocate educational resources and improve the status quo of educational mismatch is of great significance in promoting the improvement of employment quality and realizing the high-quality development of the economy in China.
