Employment Predicament Of College Students: "Difficult Employment" Or "Difficult Employment"?

Some people say that there are too many college graduates, so employment difficulties are caused. Some people say that universities are not able to learn anything linked to reality at present, resulting in many people at a loss when they are employed. So, what causes the employment of university students? A big country with a population of 1 billion 300 million, can not afford millions of college graduates every year? Where is the way out for the lucky ones?

Nowadays, college students are no longer the "lucky ones" in the eyes of the people. With the gradual development of university education towards the popularization of popular education, universities are no longer the rights enjoyed by a few people. However, the speed of the "elite complex" has not been able to catch up with the popularization of higher education in the past. Many people have not yet jumped out of this idea. They still attach too much importance to university, employment and their status. It is precisely because of such a lag concept that learning is slack in the University, and it becomes a certain necessity when employment is at a loss.

Profession and Employment: Unequal

Before I went to college, I chose a good major, and I was waiting for you after graduation. Nowadays, the popular major in examination does not mean that it will become a hot industry of employment. A few days ago, reporters visited the two largest talent market in the provincial capital, and found that the hot professionals in the past were also faced with the problem of difficulty in obtaining employment. From the current employment situation, the most popular specialties have been ranked in the forefront of the industry with the highest unemployment rate, such as medicine, law, accounting, news and so on.

In this regard, Wang Huming, manager of Taiyuan talent market, said that at present, medicine has become the highest unemployment rate, and only 30% of graduates from many medical schools can get jobs smoothly. According to the data, the employment rate of graduates from Chinese medicine colleges nationwide is only 10%. In fact, about 20% of Chinese medicine students choose to serve as a means of livelihood. In the legal profession, judge lawyers are not good enough. Judging from the current demand, the number of professionals who can really engage in the legal profession is relatively small compared with the number of graduates in the legal profession every year. The reason for this is that most law students or even masters of law can not immediately engage in work related to the law profession, such as judges, prosecutors, lawyers, legal advisers and so on, but must pass the judicial examination, and the extremely low passing rate has become the biggest threshold before them.

For concern Journalism Major It's not easy to find an internship after graduation. Influenced by the development and transformation of the media, many units strictly control the number of news gathering and editing staff. At the same time, the State Administration of press and publication has also cut down a number of newspapers and periodicals from the perspective of consolidating the order of press and publication. At the same time, the scale of journalism has been unprecedentedly large. From the past, journalism majors only started in the Chinese departments of the old institutions, and now they are also rushing to the comprehensive colleges and industrial colleges. As a result, the imbalance between supply and demand of news talents is not surprising. As a matter of fact, nowadays, even if we enter some good news units, we must get through the "connections" to get valuable opportunities. Those who "go through five passes and cut six will" get involved in the final interview.

A few years ago, a very popular computer related profession, because of the large number of applicants, the market has been saturated. In the major recruitment market, the computer majors who had been scrambled for each other suddenly became unnoticed. Many of the former computer professionals simply switched to another way of life. Most of the graduates of computer science become temporary workers, causing the employment of computer industry to be severely tested.

What we need and what we need: Big gap

In a recruitment session of the Taiyuan talent market, Miss Wang, the recruitment manager of a software company, said: "the reason why we recruit graduates is long-term talent reserves and training considerations, and also has the intention of reducing costs. When college students begin to work, their salaries may be lower, but their wages will also gradually improve as their personal abilities rise. " She suggested that college students should have a peace of mind. Finding a job with high salary is not the first element. But for graduates, most recruitment units have certain requirements, that is, they need to have strong learning ability and good adaptability, so that they can change their roles as soon as possible. But from the recruitment situation, it is not optimistic. Most of the college students are single children, and they are hard to reach for the hard-working requirements of employers, and do not want to do basic or physical work. The head of a recruitment office told reporters: "undergraduates are not lacking, but they can hardly work hard. Now college students come to sit in offices and do not want to go out to run business. When I hear that I have to travel abroad for a long time, I still need to travel a lot.

Among the applicants, Zhang Yanjun came from the countryside and studied at the school of economics and management of Taiyuan University of Technology. Xiao Zhang said, "it's hard to get out of the rural area and go to college for four years in the city. So I go back to China. I'm not willing to say no to myself. What do relatives and neighbours think of themselves? And there are more opportunities for me to come to the provincial capital than my hometown. " People like Xiao Zhang's ideas are very few. Wang Ruihua, who came from Xinzhou, did not find the right job when she graduated. In order to stay in Taiyuan, she entered the present working unit in the name of an intern through the introduction of acquaintances, and had been employed for nearly a year with low wages. She wanted to find other jobs after accumulating her work experience. In her words, she was willing to "sweat for tomorrow".

During the subsequent visits, most of the college students interviewed wanted to get a job of "low pressure, well paid and stable", but often neglected the gap between their own quality and "ideal" work. Some college students are too early to put forward the position of applicants, which employers do not agree with. Song Hui, who graduated from the Department of administration of Shanxi University, wants to find a management job after graduation. But he often runs into a wall, and now he works full-time in an electronics company. In response, a person in charge of a recruitment department said he wanted to apply for a department manager or an executive just after graduation, thinking he could do anything. It is precisely because of the excessive self-confidence of college students that many of them are hard to find jobs.

A unit recruitment official pointed out that: some college students did not study hard, lack of professional knowledge, poor basic skills, poor acceptance and adaptability, and failed to achieve the expected effect through training. Some college students' personality traits made them unable to be accepted, such as quick success and instant benefit, high aim, avoidance of responsibility, negative inaction and serious selfish motives, which were all important reasons why college students were not optimistic. It also helps people complain that nowadays college students are not as good as former college students, and their practical ability and practical ability have declined.

It is not difficult to get a job.

During a visit, a student parent believes that in today's society, finding a job or finding a good job is not only determined by the ability of students, but also involves many extra factors. Many times, employment is not a test of students, but obviously a test of parents.

Learning marketing Liu Linying, "since last year's graduation has been unable to remember how many times here," she said, "up to now has not yet found the ideal job, want to find professional counterparts, some are not very satisfied with salary, some are not optimistic about the development prospects, I do not want to compromise, unemployed for a year." Xiao Liu said that there is a subtle phenomenon of group differentiation in finding jobs. Rural students and poor students have a poor family background, and they can only continue to actively look for job opportunities. The family economic conditions and social relations of graduates play a more and more important role in job hunting. Many of her classmates rely on their parents' relationship or go to public institutions or state-owned enterprises.

Quite a number of university students choose to join the ranks of applicants for civil service. For graduating students, finding a stable, decent and well paid job in the city is not easy. Although data show that the number of civil service applicants in 2011 was slightly lower than that of last year, the fact that 80 people competed for one job and the most competitive position was 4666 to 1.

According to the reporter, China's economic structure is mainly labor-intensive, and the demand for skilled workers is the main share. The intermediate level is relatively small, and high-end talents need less. At present, China's college enrollment is still a planning mode. When it comes to talent export, it follows the market economy mode and graduates choose jobs independently. The collision between them leads to contradictions, and the result is difficult employment.

The difficulty of obtaining employment is not only the problem of college students themselves, but also the defects of professional settings in universities. Zhang Wei, who is responsible for recruitment work in Shanxi talent market, said: "the structure of professional colleges and universities and the market demand structure are totally different: the market demand can not be cultivated in Colleges and universities, and the market does not need to be cultivated in Colleges and universities."

In response, Feng, Minister of marketing of Shanxi talent market, said that unfair social competition does exist, and to a certain extent, it will affect social stability, mislead college students' values and weaken their desire to struggle. There is a nepotism in the recruitment examination of state-owned enterprises, public institutions and civil servants, causing the central enterprises and large state-owned enterprises, such as PetroChina, Sinopec, telecommunications, railways and other departments, to have compiled and highly paid posts without publicly releasing recruitment information, but this is only a minority.

Feng said, in fact, the real problem of employment is only a general statement. The two major talent markets in the provincial capital hold several recruitment fairs every week. Every time many enterprises enter the field to recruit and offer a large number of jobs. So many jobs for college graduates in our province are in excess of demand. Enterprises are always recruiting enough people, but college students are not equal to the job demands. Therefore, for college students, it is not "difficult employment" but "difficult employment".

Where is the way of "Heaven's favored son"?

According to the reporter, some of the troubled college students are highly educated, but most of them have no skills. Diploma and skills are one of the most important factors for college students to find jobs.

The current situation is that education management departments and universities do not pay much attention to this problem, few universities set up prizes for practice. To change this situation, the government should take the lead and attach importance to it and actively participate in it. The family should change the concept of talent cultivation and encourage children to take part in social activities, such as holidays, odd jobs, internships, academic exchanges, social surveys, research projects and so on.

At the same time, employment guidance is not only an important part of university education, but also an effective way to resolve the psychological contradictions of university graduates. The cultivation of employment skills has actually started from the time of filling university volunteers. Parents should give rational guidance to children's voluntary reporting and choose their majors according to their interests and specialties. The students' offices in Colleges and universities provide feasible employment advice for students through studying the characteristics, professional characteristics and students' characteristics of the school; the head teacher knows most about the personality and specialty of students, and should give specific guidance according to the situation of everyone. With these in mind, college students can have a good idea when they are employed.

According to one industry, at present, university education is mainly based on scores. University classes do not teach students to plan for their own development. Graduation means unemployment. The fundamental reason is that education and society are divorced from the needs of talents. How to intervene in national policies? What is the responsibility of school training? Who is responsible for the embarrassment of "two skins"? This is a common concern and urgent problem for the whole society.
