Your questions:
One, without any hesitation, go to Tetra Pak. For recent graduates, you know what it means to get into such a big company. This company has been in China for many years and has a very loud reputation in the industry, even across industries. In the industry, it is almost a monopoly, and many of its patents are still under patent protection, which means that no one can still compete with it in the short term. What are you hesitating to do with such a good company?
Tetra Pak's interviews are very rigorous, and the fact that you've made it through four rounds of interviews shows that you're quite good at what you do. Although you are just starting out and doing a lot of things, as I said before, rotations, including some very small things, are a necessary stage in your career, and it's important not to let things get too small for you.
And the people who have made the jump from Tetra Pak are very popular with other industries and are respected accordingly, you will find pride in the company.
Two, in the eyes of 90% of the Chinese population, there is no difference between a technician and an engineer. This is a problem with the education of our society. The original definition of a technician is a person with special skills in a particular area, while an engineer is a senior technician who is involved in technology, research and development. The difference between the two is obvious. To give you a reference, in the foreign capital, the English of technician is Technician, engineer is Engineer, then you can check from the Internet, both are working in what departments to know. So you understand correctly that SOEs have no desire to train engineers, they only need technicians, or clinker workers to put it bluntly.
Three, there is a lot more to machining and manufacturing than I can detail. Simple summary:
Processing: mainly covers all the processes from raw materials to parts, including sheet metal stamping, bending, metal shaping, machining, welding, molding, heat treatment, and so on and so forth.
Manufacturing: parts assembly, testing, adjustment, improvement. That is to say, the whole process of turning the processed parts into the final product that can be used.
I divided into four categories, just because the number of people engaged in these four directions is the largest, and in fact, you can find more through the job fair more fragmented types of work no less than dozens.
Four, this is a question I can't answer, and the recommended advice, which I've mentioned in many, many replies, is referenced. If there was a standard answer to this question, wouldn't everyone be in such a company? I still emphasize that phrase, strength first.
Fifth, there is such a phenomenon and demand in the state-owned enterprises, if you develop in the state-owned enterprises, you need to go to the National Personnel Bureau of the appropriate engineer certificate. In any other enterprises, including foreign capital, joint ventures, private enterprises do not need any certificate, the development depends entirely on their own strength and experience.
Sixth, the biggest advantage of the Japanese capital is that it will teach you how to work. I've said before that I recommend all college graduates to go to the Japanese capital for a few days to receive re-education. Certainly in terms of long-term development, Europe and the United States capital certainly in the first place, but short-term as a springboard, or transition, that Japanese capital is also good. State-owned enterprises please ignore, can go to foreign capital, is certainly the first choice (if there is no choice, then there is no way)
seven, their words belong to nonsense. Campus recruiting is in the fall of each year, but all the senior positions at all the big companies are not posted until after the year, such as in the spring if I want to jump ship. Although you are not currently considered a senior talent, it is perfectly possible to find another good opportunity during the spring hiring rush, so go home for the New Year with peace of mind, worrying is purely superfluous.
That's it, sorry for the rush.
