In The Workplace: How To Solve Job Burnout And Career Ambiguity

In the course of our career development, we will encounter a lot of workplace confusion.

If I can not solve these puzzles in time, they will bring me some factors that are not conducive to their own career development.

Such as job burnout, career ambiguity and so on.

In view of different workplace confusion, we selected 10 most typical workplace puzzles and solutions.

Puzzle 1: ambiguous career positioning

Usually faced with the following situations, it is easy to see the ambiguity of career positioning: 1, choosing a profession is not consistent with one's own interests and hobbies; 2, blind job search does not fully consider its advantages and disadvantages; 3, it is not satisfied with the current working status, but is at a loss; 4, facing multiple choices, or having no grasp of future career development.

Solution:

Comprehensive, objective and systematic evaluation of their professional interests, professional abilities, hobbies, analysis of what they are suited to do, what can be done?

Analyze occupational market and workplace situation.

Finding a meeting point between the social needs and personal interests and identifying the role orientation in the society is easier to choose.

When individuals are in different stages of their career development, especially in job pition or job hopping, they should compare their strengths and weaknesses to make mature and rational thinking and foster strengths and circumvent weaknesses.

If necessary, we should know what kind of personality traits we belong to with the help of comprehensive evaluation of occupation tendency, vocational ability and vocational interest, and provide reference for our occupation positioning.

A clear career orientation helps individuals to take fewer detours in their career choices and make themselves more competitive in the workplace.

Puzzle 2: lack of career planning

Career planning is to analyze and determine the individual's personality, ability, expertise, interest and potential according to the market's industry development and employment criteria, and formulate corresponding career plans, so as to achieve the ultimate goal of personal career development.

Many people seldom consider making such a plan, so that they lose their way.

Solution:

Generally speaking, the feeling of "career planning" is often difficult, complex, and troublesome, and some people even think that "it's a matter of senior talent and has nothing to do with myself".

The reason for the lack of career planning is to think too much about career planning and give up designing career planning.

Career planning is the management tool of career. Its core is "talk about work with yourself and know yourself".

The best way to talk to yourself is to write to yourself and write to yourself in the future.

In the letter, I will talk about my work with my future self, and encourage, praise and criticize.

The content of a letter is a factor that constitutes its own career planning. The more specific the letter is, the clearer the work plan will be.

The letter can also be written regularly and repeatedly, because everyone's career planning is different from others, and planning is still planning after all, and needs to be changed according to circumstances.

This is known as the management and maintenance of career planning.

Puzzle 3: lack of job search skills

The whole job search process can be divided into four stages: selection of enterprises, resumes, interviews and trial periods. There are many methods and skills to improve the success rate of job search at all stages.

But according to the survey, more than 80% of the job seekers are mainly focused on two aspects: writing resume skills and interview skills.

The importance of the first and last part of the job search is not enough, and the job hunting skills are also scarce.

The relevant professional training courses lack innovative and targeted skills in technical research.

Solution:

Lack of job hunting skills often means problems such as communication skills, presentation skills and social skills. These skills are the keys to open the workplace.

Communication with job candidates: specifically, what skills and qualities should be understood, including the industry location and development goals of the company, and what kind of help they can make to the company.

After knowing the basic situation of the job, prepare yourself for yourself, so as to prove to the examiner the skills and qualities you possess.

Communication with examiners: for those who are not good at speaking, it is best to talk about their best practices, help themselves enter the state as early as possible, and avoid being unfamiliar because of nervousness.

Communication with skills: imagine the examiner's questions and prepare for the interview.

Puzzle 4: old age job barriers

Older job hunting barriers generally exist in the lack of core competitiveness of the population, because professional skills and professional knowledge system does not form a strong competitiveness, many people in the job search process will stabilize and pay the first place, rather than closely linked to the continuous development of personal competitiveness.

As the age increases, the value of the profession decreases.

Moreover, due to the characteristics of the position, the enterprises set clear restrictions on the age requirements, so many people are confronted with the age threshold for job hunting.

Solution:

Age has become an insurmountable chasm for many job seekers in the job market.

However, older job seekers also have their own advantages, such as experienced and hardworking.

Therefore, older job seekers should be good at strengthening strengths and circumvent weaknesses, choosing their own strengths and making up their own weaknesses.

You should be calm when you apply for a job: because your age is being rejected by your unit, you need to adjust your mindset and believe that you can make a difference.

Don't be harsh in applying for a job: older job seekers can't rely on the higher salary and higher requirements.

Job seekers in various channels: actively promote themselves through the labor market, talent market or other channels, and go to the market.

If you have skills and no certificates, you can get certificates through training. If you have no skills or qualifications, you can start from the lower level of work.

To break through the limitations of large companies: Generally speaking, large companies have strict requirements for age. Small companies aim at reducing the cost of employment. Generally, they recruit many jobs, but they are very fond of many older job seekers who know technology and management experience.

In modern enterprises, because of the division of labor and cooperation, job promotion and other benefits distribution, the simple relationship between colleagues and subordinates has become complicated.

In the workplace, the key to EQ is the ability to handle interpersonal relationships, which often determines a person's work achievement.

However, many people in the workplace often handle bad interpersonal relationships in their work and affect their personal development.

Solution:

First, it is clear that interpersonal relationships are not the whole work.

Work hard, work hard and create more achievements, so that you can get the recognition of the workplace.

Strength is the key to staying in the workplace.

Face up to "interpersonal conflict" and establish friendly relationships with colleagues in different departments. Harmonious interpersonal relationships will not only make work enjoyable, but also help you when you need it.

Avoid being involved in the circle of interpersonal struggles.

If passively involved in the whirlpool of struggle, the best way is to pretend to be deaf and dumb.

Always bear in mind, work hard.

Because strength is the most solid foundation of power in the workplace.

Understanding and understanding of corporate culture.

When team culture reaches the ideal mode, it can not only tolerate different personalities, but also give perseverance to overcome difficulties.

Perplexity 6: workplace overwork

Career development is phased. The greater the responsibility, the greater the pressure.

Young professionals often have a misunderstanding that young people should be regarded as the largest capital, rather than job competency and career management skills. They lack experience in dealing with long-term competitiveness.

Fatigue, stress, challenges and setbacks caused by fatigue, depression, irritability, insomnia and other physical and mental disorders are often the prelude to disease.

Solution:

There are two kinds of "overwork" in the workplace, one is "pseudo overwork" and the other is "real overstrain".

"Pseudo overwork" refers to fatigue caused by subjective factors. When this happens, we should start from three aspects.

Be clear about your work objectives and avoid doing useless work.

I feel that I work hard, but in fact many situations are due to inaccuracy of business level or wrong working methods.

Be familiar with your work and arrange a reasonable sequence of work.

We should learn to work, pay attention to the rules and methods of work, and arrange the sequence of work reasonably.

Look for happiness and satisfaction from work.

The pseudo workplace "overwork" is a lot of psychological fatigue. Therefore, we try to get emotional pleasure from work and get satisfaction through successfully completing tasks.

If the "real sex is overworked", when the unit is seriously "exploited" labor force, we must learn to protect our legitimate rights and interests, and solve the problem through labor supervision or labor arbitration.

Job burnout is a kind of physical and mental discomfort, psychological exhaustion, emotional closure and sub-health state in people's intense and busy work due to internal and external factors such as environment and emotion.

The symptoms of job burnout are: lack of enthusiasm for work and lack of enthusiasm for work.

It is prone to fatigue, boredom, anxiety and irritability.

Low spirits, low spirits, and mental fatigue.

There are two main reasons for job burnout.

First, there is no definite career planning: there are no definite conditions when choosing a job, or there are no other conditions for the treatment.

Some people even did not consider the specific work content, development prospects, working environment and other factors.

Two, patience is not enough: work is changing all the time.

Even now, "no strength" can not guarantee that it will be "boring" later.

Before you feel happy, you want to change jobs.

Solution:

Job burnout does not necessarily need to be changed to work. Some people also have job burnout after changing jobs. The more job changes, the more job burnout.

Career planning is the key to avoid job burnout.

Analyze why you are in job burnout: list the reasons you can think of, and you may find that job burnout is not the reason.

Analyze the current work situation: a review of your work.

Solution: do you know if your job burnout is subjective or objective? Can you overcome it through your own efforts? If you can overcome it, overcome it through your own efforts, if you can overcome it, if you can't overcome it, you can consider changing your job.

Changing jobs is the last resort to solve job burnout. We must treat them with caution. We must not turn small job burnout into "chronic" job burnout.

Perplexity 8: salary is not as good as wish.

Wages are not as good as wishes. There are two kinds of performance. One is "this mountain looks high on the mountain". On the one hand, it has high expectations for itself. On the other hand, it does not know enough about the market, and there is a certain gap between salary and expectation.

The other is that their pay is not directly proportional to their income, and they can not get the proper remuneration.

Solution:

Salary is not as good as willing. We must look at it in two ways.

It may be the cause of the unit or the reason for the job seeker himself.

If you feel you are qualified for the job, the unit does not give you the corresponding salary.

It depends on whether you like the job or not. If you think you are suitable for this job, you must communicate with the unit, gently say the idea of raising salary, and see how the boss responds.

If you are not interested in this job or feel that you are not suitable for yourself, then you should calm down and make a good position in your career.

Only when you love your job can you do it well and do it well.

On the other hand, if you are unable to get a satisfactory salary because of your low educational background or skills, you must rely on your own efforts to change it.

Perplexity 9: lack of security in work

Job security refers to the feeling of confidence, security and freedom that a person gains in a career.

Generally speaking, there are several reasons for the lack of sense of security in the workplace, such as the lack of security and the lack of sense of security in the workplace; the lack of professional skills and skills; and the lack of sense of security; the lack of sense of security; the lack of security and the lack of security in the process of work.

Solution:

To solve job insecurity, we should adjust it from four aspects:

It is changing the working condition, adjusting the pace of work, adapting to the requirements of environment and work and management mode.

We should be vigilant in times of danger, improve our competitiveness, strengthen learning and training, constantly enrich ourselves, and improve our business level and skills.

Enhance your sense of crisis, adapt yourself to the needs of environment and competition, and do not expect the environment to obey you.

It is self regulation, changing pressure into motivation.

In modern society, there is no absolute sense of security. In life, we must face the reality, accept the fact that the sense of insecurity brings confusion, learn to self regulate, self depressurization, and pform pressure into hard work.

Even in the face of elimination and unemployment, we must treat calmly and rediscover ourselves in a positive manner and reestablish ourselves in society.

When we are infringed upon, we should use law to safeguard our rights and interests.

When a person has to give up his years of work and turn to another industry or type of work.

From familiarity to strangeness, without primitive accumulation, confusion and misgivings may arise.

In fact, pformation is both an opportunity and a crisis.

Transformation must take into account its own characteristics and industry personality.

Solution:

Transformation is an opportunity, but it has two sides. It can succeed or fail.

Therefore, in the process of pformation, we should choose our own "career anchor" as the criterion to choose our own direction.

The term "career anchor" refers to the important values of a career when one has to make a choice and never give up.

In order to avoid the "labor pains" in the pformation process as far as possible.

First of all, we must recognize our shortcomings and take full account of our own characteristics, including professional interest, work experience, and our own advantages, so as to identify our "career anchor".

Secondly, we should fully understand the trend of development of the market and the changes in the market demand for qualified personnel, and combine these two points to find the best breakthrough point for pformation.

Thirdly, in pition, we should choose industries that are related to our profession, so that we can have a smooth pition stage and familiarize ourselves with new roles as soon as possible.
