1. Fudan University's liberal arts program is on par with other top universities, but the experience of a Fudan University graduate in autumn is confusing.
As a first-class university in China, Fudan University enjoys a high reputation, especially in the field of liberal arts. However, a student named Zhang Xuefeng experienced an unsatisfactory encounter during the job search process during the autumn recruitment season. As a bachelor's and master's degree graduate from Fudan University, Zhang Xuefeng submitted nearly 200 resumes during the autumn recruitment period, but only Didi gave him the opportunity to interview. For such a high-quality college graduate, such an outcome left him confused and frustrated. However, what is the reason behind this?
During the autumn recruitment period, Zhang Xuefeng actively submitted resumes, covering various industries and positions. In nearly 3 months, he applied for a total of 183 positions in 111 enterprises and institutions, but only Didi gave him the opportunity to interview. Although the number of deliveries is relatively small, considering that he graduated from a high-level institution such as Fudan University, this number cannot be ignored. After all, as a student, there will always be some bottom lines in your heart, and you will not easily lower your delivery standards. At the same time, during this period, Zhang Xuefeng did not sit idly by. He took the selection examination in Shanghai and several bank exams, and produced 5 resumes in different directions to better meet the needs of the company. But even so, he was unable to find the job he wanted.
During the autumn recruitment period, Zhang Xuefeng joined 6 autumn recruitment groups and kept an eye on all kinds of news every day. In order to expand the scope, he also participated in offline job fairs held by schools such as Shanghai Jiaotong University, University of Finance and Economics, and Fudan University, and participated in a total of 4 sessions. However, just when he was about to lose his patience, he simply sent a large number of resumes on the app, no longer picking and choosing. Despite this, he has yet to hear from another company. The whole person fell into a state of exhaustion, and various written exams and interviews made him feel irritable. He constantly took various practical and psychological tests, and even took a two-and-a-half-hour written test, which also included the requirements for writing essays. However, all the effort does not seem to be properly rewarded.
From another point of view, Zhang Xuefeng is not the only one facing such an employment dilemma. Even other undergraduate and master's students at Fudan University are frustrated and confused when they look for a 1,000-yuan job. They feel that they have dishonored the prestige of this prestigious school and are full of disappointment for the future. The employment situation of liberal arts students can be said to be relatively poor, especially when compared with science and engineering. It is not uncommon for some resumes to be submitted but no one responds. Some companies recruit to meet policy requirements and don't really need new employees, so resumes may not be seen by HR personnel at all. However, this does not mean that the employment prospects for liberal arts students are dark. In fact, many liberal arts students find satisfying jobs after graduation and receive good salaries. Therefore, we cannot generalize that the employment situation of liberal arts students is not optimistic.
In summary, the employment situation for liberal arts students is relatively grim, but it is not without opportunities. If you want to increase your chances of employment, you need to be well prepared at the university level. One of the best ways for liberal arts students to turn around is to increase the learning of other skills. At the same time, the choice of the right position should take into account future development and company planning, not just the initial salary. By doing so, you will not only increase your employment opportunities, but also make it easier for you to face the pressure of employment.
With Zhang Xuefeng's autumn recruitment experience, we can see that the employment situation among students majoring in liberal arts is not optimistic. Although Fudan University has a strong reputation as one of China's top universities for liberal arts programs, graduates still face many difficulties in the highly competitive job market.
In reality, the number of liberal arts jobs is relatively small, and the competition is fierce. Many companies only hire for policy reasons and don't actually need a large number of employees. As a result, submitting a large number of resumes does not necessarily lead to reward, which makes liberal arts graduates feel at a loss and helpless.
However, being a liberal arts student does not mean that there are no other ways out of employment. During their time at university, students can consider developing some professional-related skills, or choose to broaden their horizons and improve their overall quality. For example, you can apply for positions such as transfer or public service to improve the possibility of finding a satisfactory job. At the same time, you should maintain a positive attitude during the job search process, constantly improve your resume and interview skills, and create more opportunities for yourself.
All in all, although the employment situation for liberal arts students is relatively tough, it is not without opportunities. Graduates should actively look for suitable positions according to their personal situation and actual needs, and prepare in advance. Only by making unremitting efforts to expand one's employment horizons and abilities can we better cope with the competition and find a satisfactory job.
