A Sleeping Trough Is More Stable Than A Job Hopping.

Xiaoli, a sales company in Shanghai, originally planned to job hopping after the Spring Festival, but recently he changed his mind and wanted to stay in the original company for further development.

Xiao Li changed his original intention, because he found that the foreign trade companies were affected by multiple factors such as RMB appreciation and so on. The overall business climate declined. So some companies reduced their staffing settings, and many of the positions that they were interested in were coveted, and the competition was fierce. At the same time, the salary offered by the new company was almost the same as that of his current level.

"Rather than that, I might as well do some more work in my old company to increase some accumulation."

He said so.

Perhaps, "lying trough" is more practical than blind job hopping.

To avoid the sharp drop in wage income due to blind job hopping and to reduce the opportunity cost brought about by job hopping, this is indeed a practical option.

According to the current employment situation and the economic operation situation, job hopping will be more dangerous than usual if there is no sufficient preparation.

Therefore, career planning experts suggest that workplace workers should lie quietly at the present stage, and take the time to recharge themselves for long-term development.

The employment situation is not optimistic.

Comparatively speaking, at this stage, it is still good to "lie trough". Unless there is a good chance to come, we should not make the choice of job hopping easily.

From a macro level, the situation of oversupply of labour has not changed fundamentally.

The Ministry of labor and social security predicts that during the "11th Five-Year" period, there will be 10 million new labour force each year in cities and towns, plus laid-off workers who need employment, and other surplus and residual pfer personnel, who need to arrange employment for 24 million people every year.

According to the demand of labor force, according to the economic growth rate of 8% to 9%, 800~900 new jobs can be added every year. With the addition of natural attrition, there will be about 12 million people in the workforce. The gap between the supply and demand of the annual labor force is still around 12 million, which is as high as 50%.. Therefore, from the aggregate perspective, the basic trend of oversupply of urban labor force will exist for a long time in the future.

The employment situation of college graduates is also not optimistic.

The total number of university graduates in 2008 will increase from 4 million 640 thousand last year to 5 million 320 thousand.

Except for the 10% postgraduate entrance exams, the students of the college entrance examination, the newly promoted students and the students studying abroad, plus the 700 thousand to 800 thousand years of employment, the number of people who actually need employment in 2008 is more than 6 million.

From the perspective of economic operation, all kinds of changes will also affect the employment situation.

Some experts believe that the macro-control will not be relaxed in 2008, especially the use of various monetary means to control the scale of credit, which will inevitably form a pattern of protecting large enterprises and small businesses, so that social projects that can increase employment will not be able to expand further because of the lack of continuous "oxygen supply".

At the end of last year, the CICC report predicted that the appreciation rate of RMB against the US dollar would be 10% in 2008, and that of Standard Chartered Bank would be 15%. This is not alarmist. As of March 25th this year, the appreciation of RMB against the US dollar has reached 3.5%.. In order to cope with the rapid appreciation of RMB, China will adjust its import and export relationship, which will balance trade with the export cost of social security, wages, land and environment.

Blind jump is not worth the candle.

Blind job hopping is very dangerous, especially in the current situation, and the danger will be magnified.

Zhu Jinzheng originally worked in a real estate agency in Shanghai. Because of the relatively low volume of housing pactions in recent years, the company's business income was poor, so he wanted to change the industry to make car sales.

After the end of the Spring Festival Award, he submitted his resignation letter.

Over the next two months or so, Xiao Chu would attend every talent exchange meeting, sending out countless copies of his resume, and having interviews with N, but always unable to find his new job. Now he has some regrets about his choice.

Zou Yu, a career guidance expert of China talent network, revealed that the new labor contract law and the employment situation continue to be tight.

Compared with the same period of last year, job demand was increased compared to the same period last year, but the demand and supply gap in the workplace was widened.

The latest employment prospects survey released by Wanbao Shenghua showed that the net employment prospect index of mainland China's enterprises in the second quarter of 2008 was +8% (the net employment prospect index) refers to the proportion of employers wishing to increase the number of employers in all surveyed enterprises, which is less than the number of employers expected to reduce the number of employers. This is the weakest employment prospect expected by mainland Chinese enterprises since joining the survey in the second quarter of 2005.

Compared with the previous quarter, seasonally adjusted data analysis showed that the Net Employment Outlook Index dropped 7 percentage points this quarter, down 8 percentage points compared with the same period last year.

At the same time, with the introduction of seasonally adjusted factors, the three biggest sectors of finance, insurance and real estate, mining and construction, pportation and utilities are the weakest employment prospects since the second quarter of 2005.

Therefore, in this context, the risk of blind job hopping can be imagined.

A human resource expert said that a little carelessness is likely to jump in mid air, or find a trap after the foot.

Dr. Liu Dawei, general manager of Shanghai professional management Consultants Limited, told reporters that this year, many factors have affected the demand for flexible job market.

In this regard, experts said that the reduction of jobs means that the opportunity to get jobs will also be reduced.

For those who blindly job hopping in the past, such as Xiao Zhu, jumping in the air has just found that there has been no place to stay, which will allow themselves to be in a passive position.

Xiao Zhu did not go to work for more than two months. What is most obvious is that the wage income of these two months is zero, and he still does not know when he will be able to get another job. So before he goes to work, he will only rely on his old books to maintain it, which will surely increase his family burden.

Of course, the sharp decline in wage income is only the first level, and the subsequent impact will still exist.

If Xiao Zhu can find a job smoothly after that, he will still have to adapt himself to the new environment. The worst result may be that he can not adapt to the new environment and choose job hopping again, which will face new helplessness for him.

Even if we can adapt quickly, but according to the Convention, in the first few months (usually 3~6 months), he will also be reduced because he is in the running in stage.

There is also Xiao Zhu in the new company, although the previous connections may still be part of the use, but to a large extent, he still needs to be rebuilt, such as familiarity with the surrounding, and the development of new customers. This hidden cost is not as intuitive as the sharp drop in income, but it can not be ignored for everyone in the workplace.

Enrich yourself in the long run

Therefore, for workplace professionals, the most practical way at this stage is to seize the opportunity to enrich themselves rather than passively lie in the process of stabilization.

Of course, the first thing to be clear is its own position.

Guo Ce, general manager and chief consultant of Hongwei vocational consultant in Beijing, said that because there were no career goals, many people had a career disorder and their career bottlenecks appeared very early.

I have no choice but to change jobs.

But many people have no direction, no location, no matter whether the road ahead is thorns or swamps, blindly take off.

This is one of the common diseases that people in the workplace are prone to suffer from.

Work is not positioned, which is the biggest taboo in the workplace.

People and jobs do not match, to a certain extent will not be able to continue, or even no road feasible, at a loss.

The result can only be passive job hopping or job change. Therefore, at the beginning of every job, it is necessary to position as early as possible.

Career positioning is very important, especially the positioning of the starting point, including industry positioning, orientation, job positioning, salary positioning and many other items.

In fact, there are many different jobs in different industries. The position is not only determined by direction, but also by positions. For example, a person is suitable for the market. Is it marketing, market analysis or market planning?

If there is no location, blind walking will lead to career disorder.

For the workplace, if you find that you have not set a good position, you must define your career direction according to your professional character, your own advantages and comprehensive ability. If you can not be sure of yourself, you can rely on the strength of professionals.

After that, they are looking for various opportunities to improve their working skills, such as attending classes.

Of course, the purpose of learning is to improve oneself. Therefore, it is necessary to participate in various training courses in a targeted manner, requiring lasting enthusiasm, instead of catching up with excitement and fishing for three days and two days.

Stability does not mean that we do not cherish the opportunity. If the time comes, we should cherish it.

But Liu Dawei warned that there is a misunderstanding in the market, that is, as long as the headhunter comes to the door, it will be an excellent opportunity.

He pointed out that, in fact, headhunters only sell "hunting" talents as goods to other companies, but do not care about their career development path. The result is that they immediately fall into a very passive position after job hopping, and have to start job hopping again.
