In principle, if the full-time teachers in the school are career editors, then the full-time counselors should be career editors. Otherwise, even if they get equal pay for equal work, there will be a huge gap in social security, which may cause instability of personnel.

However, many colleges and universities have no available staffing, and even the existing staff are overstaffed. Colleges and universities only use the only staffing resources to recruit high-level talents, and other experimental posts, administrative posts and counselor posts all adopt the personnel agency method. Some colleges and universities have their own establishment, but for the forward-looking needs of deepening the reform of personnel system, they strictly manage the establishment and do not allow counselors and other post personnel to be included.
