An international student expressed anxiety at a forum at Peking University: a state-owned enterprise issued new rules that made it clear that it would no longer recruit foreign master's students with a two-year degree.
Although he has not yet graduated, he initially thought that he would become a sweet spot in the workplace after returning to China with the identity of "returnee master", but he did not expect to become the object of everyone's dislike. Why is it that studying abroad for a master's degree is no longer so popular these days?
This is not an isolated incident. Last year, several state-owned enterprises publicly stated that they would no longer recruit master's students studying abroad, and even BYD, a private enterprise, was confident that it would refuse to accept returnee doctors.
"Returnee masters" are now being left out in the cold, and central enterprises explicitly refuse to recruit, and international students who have not graduated are confused.
In fact, a few years ago, international students returned to China with their status as "returnees", foreign master's degrees and high English proficiency, which did have a certain impact on domestic graduates.
At that time, parents and students in ordinary families were quite disdainful of this kind of behavior of spending money "wearing gold and silver": these rich second generations spent money to play around, and when they came back, they became masters.
And their own children have to go through years of hard Xi in exchange for a college diploma, which is obviously unfair. At that time, the international students didn't care about this: they just couldn't eat grapes and said that grapes were sour.
But now, they no longer dare to speak lightly of such statements. State-owned enterprises and state-owned enterprises have taken the lead in taking measures against international students, making their road to China more and more bumpy, not only losing the advantage of employment, but also facing discrimination.
Only a few top science and engineering doctoral programs and some well-known business master's programs in Europe and the United States can still receive some recognition, while the master's and doctoral programs in social sciences have no market and have long been notorious.
Even doctoral graduates from Boston University and Oxford University have applied for secondary school teachers, which shows that the gold content of studying abroad for master's and doctoral degrees in China has long been much lower than before.
Enterprises have also become "savvy" in recruitment, first of all, to see whether the study abroad major is obviously "problematic";Secondly, if you can't even get a bachelor's degree in China, even if you go abroad to study for a master's degree through a shortcut, you can't prove anything.
Most of these companies have experienced ten years of dealing with highly educated international students, and they know that although these students seem to have good academic qualifications, their internal level is quite bad.
In fact, in foreign countries, the master's degree is not a stage that is particularly valued, it is just a transition in the process of learning Xi. European and American countries pay more attention to undergraduate and doctoral degrees, and master's degrees are not more expensive than bachelor's degrees.
Academic qualifications are no longer unique passports, and master's and doctoral degrees that lack strength are destined to be identity labels that exist in name only. The reason why these international students can easily get a master's degree from a foreign university is because they survive in such an environment. But with this kind of "blank check", they are trying to suppress domestic students?This kind of cheapness will be difficult to take advantage of in the future.
Last year, although Shanghai did not directly exclude the study of master's degrees in terms of "talent introduction" for graduates, it clearly stated that "they must graduate from the top 100 universities in China." Although this method does not say that you are not wanted, it is in essence a targeted exclusion of certain people. This kind of guidance has brought the good days of foreign water masters to an end.
For those overseas master's degrees of less than two years directly targeted by central enterprises, in fact, only one year of study is completed to obtain a diploma. In these cases, the tuition fees are generally high, and it is likely to be funded by the family, which has little to do with personal strength.
For this kind of master's degree that lacks real talent, it is difficult for state-owned enterprises and central enterprises to accurately identify, so they are rejected. However, the public *** did not strictly close the door to them.
After all, becoming a civil servant requires passing a rigorous state exam, and every step requires a great deal of effort, a process that can comprehensively examine the student's ability and cannot be faked.
The author feels that these people lack the ability to even take the undergraduate examination in China, and the civil service examination is more focused on participation, coupled with their complex background, it is estimated that the political trial will also be hindered.
Under various restrictions, the status of foreign one-year master's degree in China is no longer as important as that of undergraduates, especially foreign one-year graduate students with high tuition fees, it seems that it is really no longer necessary.
Many parents of ordinary families are relieved by the news: the employment fairness of graduates is guaranteed, and the guilt of parents for their children is also reduced.
In the end, I want to say that students and parents understand that family conditions have a huge impact on students. Students from wealthy families sometimes escape the fierce competition and choose to go to university abroad.
Students from ordinary families, their parents may have never been abroad in their lives, the college entrance examination is the only chance for them to change their fate, and going to college is all hope for them.
But what about after college?If students try their best to work hard, but because of their family background, they are robbed of employment opportunities by those foreign "water masters", it is really too bitter.
