How To Shape A Perfect Career

"As if it had suddenly become a painful word.

From the talented person who has just walked out of the school to the white-collar workers who have gone through the workplace for many years, from the ordinary employees to the senior managers, in the dictionaries of people of different roles, gender, age, profession and position, the word "occupational crisis" has begun to appear and become clearer.

It may vary from person to person, time, environment, and opportunity. But generally speaking, from age level, most people will encounter the following four kinds of occupational crises in different stages of life.

On the one hand, I am eager for success. I hope that I can get recognition as soon as possible and get the recognition of the society and others. On the one hand, my mood is impetuous, and when I first start in the workplace, many people will find it difficult to adapt to it. Sometimes they even doubt their own choices.

Because of its own character, values, social experience and objective environment, it is easy to have the crisis and confusion of career choice.

In the face of crisis and pressure, there are two extremes.

One is to be too self abased and the two is to regard oneself as high.

Some college students who have worked in the workplace and have no work experience have been confronted with several times in the market.

Under this emotional infection, some people will choose to continue their studies and take graduate students as temporary shelters.

Someone will lower the demand and rush to find a job.

There are also some people who are simply unemployed at home because of better family economic conditions.

Those who regard themselves as high are likely to face setbacks in the job search process due to their high expectations for work units, post positions, salary and welfare, and thus fall into the blind employment situation.

From the point of view of job distribution, people at this stage are basically general staff or grass-roots personnel, or clerks and officers of government departments and institutions.

Of course, we do not exclude a group of outstanding people who have achieved good results in this period.

But on the whole, most of the people at this stage are in the exploratory stage of career development.

In this process, we should pay special attention to two factors, first of all, self analysis, including accurate analysis of their core strengths, core weaknesses, short capabilities, and potential for development.

This link is done well, and there are many twists and turns to be reduced when choosing a career.

For example, if you are not used to communicating with others, do not try to be a hiring manager for human resources; if you are born with a bad voice, do not try to become a singer.

Self analysis also includes understanding of one's own character and interest, which is also very important.

People who are extroverted and prefer to communicate with others are more likely to succeed than those who are introverted to do sales and marketing. Children who do not like children will be misleading.

As the saying goes, men are afraid of going wrong, women are afraid of marrying the wrong man.

Similarly, people with similar qualifications and little difference in quality can get career development success in a very short time, probably due to different industry choices.

Therefore, on the basis of self analysis and internal and external environmental analysis, we should rationally consider and choose the first job suitable for ourselves, set a clear goal in life, and formulate corresponding career development plans.

When young people enter the society from school, they have great influence on their initial impression and performance.

Some young people, especially those who have just graduated, always think they have knowledge and culture. When they work in a unit, they disdain to do trivial things, unwilling to start from the bottom, and can not leave a good impression on their colleagues. This is a crisis for the development of young people.

I have no objection to pursuing salary and welfare when choosing a job. Even when I was working just now, there were strong similar ideas, but the premise is that we must have a reasonable expectation.

Another point is that some industries and positions with high short-term income have little impetus to the personal career from a long-term development perspective, while some industries are short of short direct income in the short term, but have broad space for development.

Therefore, when choosing the starting point of career, we need to balance short-term interests and long-term career development goals.

Personally, this stage is the most important period of career planning. The career foundation and platform of this period will directly determine the future career heights and achievements.

For example, in the civil service, before the age of 35 can be the director, then it is very likely to rise to the bureau level leadership.

In the business enterprise, more than 30 years old is already the human resources director or the branch general manager, then will enter the head office or the group decision-making level the probability will be very big.

Therefore, after a good grasp of these ten years, the future career will become smooth and smooth, and it will be very difficult to make up for this precious golden time.

Many people will adjust their lives: some of them start their own businesses, others jump from this industry to another. Some people try to rotate between different departments and jobs in the company. Positioning and adjustment become the theme words for professionals around the age of 30.

Therefore, the most vulnerable position crisis in this age group is positioning crisis.

With the development of the times and the acceleration of competition, some seemingly promising industries and positions have become ineffective in just a few years. The once brilliant commercial giants are falling down. This trend will directly affect the individuals in the organization.

When three companies fell rapidly from the peak of annual sales of 8 billion yuan to bankruptcy, 150 thousand of their proud employees had to choose careers again. When the IT industry bubble burst in the early twenty-first Century in 90s, many software companies began to rethink their career prospects; when long-term monopolistic resources were exposed to the public by the state-owned enterprises, workers who lost the "iron rice bowl" could only choose to accept the rules of the market economy.

Knowing yourself is very important for personal growth and career positioning, but it is not easy to get a clear and accurate understanding of yourself.

In particular, the more capable people are, the less likely they are to analyze themselves objectively and to judge the environment around them.

The two aspect of knowing oneself is that the first thing is to know what you are capable of and what you can do; secondly, make sure what you are going to do.

The reason is very simple, but many people can not really understand it, but sink into it.

Many talented and talented people are repeatedly frustrated in the workplace due to inaccurate positioning.

At that time, only one of his classmates entered such a famous multinational enterprise. His career development could be said to have boundless prospects, but I heard his resignation after less than half a year.

During the Spring Festival in 2001, we met and had a good chat. He told me in a very firm voice that I would not be willing to live in such a job, and wanted to do something that belongs to me.

I did not say too much objection, because after all, choice is everyone's right, and of course everyone should be responsible for his own choice.

Although the timing is not mature enough, he has been very persistent in starting his own business.

Finally, after more than three years of entrepreneurial attempts without any substantial results, he had to accept the reality of failure and replan his career.

In June 2004, when I saw him again, I felt very clear.
