The high turnover rate of higher vocational graduates has had a negative impact on the graduates themselves, their families, employers and the whole society An excessive turnover rate will cause a waste of enterprise resources and negatively affect college students' career development and human capital accumulation The turnover rate of graduates in higher vocational colleges continues to rise, and the instability of the human resources team has created obstacles to the sustainable development of enterprises. There is a reasonably noticeable job "flash-off" phenomena, and the turnover rate for graduates of higher vocational colleges is much higher than that of graduates of other colleges and universities. Employee turnover has emerged as a challenging issue and the focus of human resource management as the new generation of employees' devotion to the company may be more aggressive. It also causes a lot of problems for management and organization. Turnover intention is a component that comes before real employee turnover. Turnover intention is easier to predict than turnover and is directly under the control of the individuals involved. The research based on the grounded theory, adopts the qualitative research method of semi-structured interview to conduct in-depth interviews. MAXQDA 2022 software was used to analyze the interview data, and the influencing factors of turnover intention of higher vocational graduates were studied.
