In recent years, with the popularization of higher education and the intensification of competition in the job market, college students are facing an increasingly severe employment situation. In particular, students with a bachelor's degree are under increasing pressure to find employment due to the increase in the number of graduates. Many students find it difficult to find their dream job, even after graduating from a top university. Far from home, they feel isolated and powerless, and they are helpless in the face of financial pressure and the difficulty of finding a job. The Peking University girl mentioned in the report is one of them, she can only become a teller after graduation, crying to netizens that she has lost face and can no longer face her high school classmates. Her experience caused confusion and embarrassment among the majority of netizens.
However, in the context of an increasingly difficult employment environment, why is this happening all the time?The main reason is the imbalance between supply and demand. The number of college graduates is increasing faster than the number of new jobs created by economic growth, resulting in an oversupply of the job market and higher demands on college graduates. Moreover, the employment prospects of some unpopular majors are even less optimistic. In addition, due to the high pressure of employment, many graduates have to compromise and give up their majors, change careers into the service industry, engage in some jobs unrelated to their majors, or choose to start their own businesses. But these jobs may seem too unseemly for graduates with a background from a top university.
The choice of major is crucial to the employment prospects of college students. Many students will choose some relatively unpopular majors in order to be admitted to prestigious universities, but this also means that their employment prospects after graduation may be relatively poor. Some students who blindly pursue well-known universities and ignore the choice of major when filling in the college entrance examination often fall into employment difficulties. After graduating, these students find that despite their aura of prestigious schools, there are relatively few job opportunities due to the fact that they Xi in unpopular majors. In the case of fierce competition in the job market, the demand for specific majors is not large, resulting in many graduates of unpopular majors falling into employment difficulties.
When filling in the college entrance examination application, students are often faced with the choice of choosing whether to give priority to a prestigious school or a major. This is a complex and confusing issue. On the one hand, students who graduate from prestigious universities are more competitive in the job market, and the reputation and alumni relationships of prestigious universities can sometimes provide better opportunities for graduates. On the other hand, the choice of major has a huge impact on the career development of students, and if you choose an unpopular major, you may also face employment difficulties despite graduating from a prestigious school. Therefore, students need to find a balance between the two.
For science students, it is more reasonable to give priority to majors. Because science majors usually have strong professional barriers, it is difficult to find employment across majors. Therefore, choosing a major with professional popularity will be more conducive to employment. In contrast, liberal arts students can be considered for priority schools. Because the barriers to liberal arts majors are relatively low, there are more opportunities for intermajors. However, students should carefully think about their career plans and development prospects before filling in the application form, and make an informed choice according to their own circumstances.
For many graduates, how should they cope with this employment pressure and choice dilemma?First of all, graduates should plan their career development early, clarify their goals and required skills, and prepare as early as possible. Secondly, they should maintain a positive attitude, move forward bravely in the face of difficulties, and constantly improve their abilities and competitiveness. At the same time, actively seek various employment opportunities and resources, such as using campus career fairs, Xi opportunities, and social networks to find suitable jobs. The most important thing is that graduates should have a mindset to adapt to change and flexible employment, constantly adjust their career plans, choose employment in industries related to their majors, or develop new career directions in other industries.
In short, the current employment situation of college graduates is still grim, especially for students with undergraduate degrees, who often face more employment pressure. Due to the imbalance between supply and demand and due to the improper choice of major, many graduates often find themselves unable to find a job that meets their expectations. Therefore, when choosing a major, students should fully consider their own interests and career prospects to make an informed choice. At the same time, only by combining personal career development planning with market demand and improving one's own ability and competitiveness can one stand out in the fiercely competitive job market.
