At the recent local two sessions, the topic of "youth employment" has attracted much attention. According to Xinhua News Agency, many provinces and cities are releasing signals to stabilize employment, taking various measures such as vocational skills training, internship and apprenticeship job development, and service platform construction to actively open up employment for young people.

One of the key points to help youth employment is to train young people to have "one skill". As Fang Yanxiang, director of the Employment Promotion Center of Huangpu District, Shanghai, said, at present, the mismatch between the vocational skills possessed by young people and the market demand has become a blockage and difficulty in youth employment. On the one hand, many young people are facing the dilemma of "unemployment after graduation", and they only learn a "dragon slaying technique" when they go to school; On the other hand, many enterprises are still worried about the problem of "difficulty in recruitment", and there is still a big gap in key technical talents urgently needed for key positions.

In order to solve this difficulty and cultivate young people with "one skill", many provinces and cities have organized special actions for youth skill improvement, internship and training, and so on. Many measures have given considerable support and care to young people in the process of entering society. However, the support work can certainly bring warmth to young people who encounter employment problems after they enter the society; However, if we can do more work before young people enter society, we can prevent the occurrence of such problems to a greater extent and achieve more remarkable results.

Why is there a mismatch between young people's vocational skills and market demand? Why do the majority of young people fail to master effective skills in school, but need to participate in secondary learning after graduation, and hope to resort to "Chinese New Year's Eve School" and relevant training organized by the human resources and social security department? Why is it that the point of convergence between young people's interests and earning a living is often not their chosen major? The key sticking point is education. There is still a long way to go to "adapt measures to local conditions and promote the harmonious development of vocational education and general education as a whole". For general education, at present, there is still a lot of room for improvement in the curriculum orientation of higher education, and many majors should be guided by industrial needs, reconstruct the standards and programs for talent training, major construction, and curriculum development, and improve students' practical ability. In the compulsory education stage, the introduction and popularization of social development and professional occupations should be introduced into the middle school classroom in advance, so as to lay a good foundation for students to choose majors and careers in the future.
