1. Pure arts and pure science majors mastering skills to help you get a job
The difficulty of employment for graduates of liberal arts disciplines (such as literature, history and philosophy majors) is still a fact that cannot be ignored. Because of the limited social demand for such talents, and such disciplines are not strong professional skills, the alternative is relatively large, so the employment of students of these majors is restricted. The same problem also occurs to graduates of pure science majors that focus on basic research. Some of the basic mathematics, basic physics and other majors in the employment of undergraduates is very embarrassing, to the R & D sector of the professional learning is not deep enough, while facing the market few counterparts.
Therefore, students majoring in liberal arts cannot simply master copywriting skills, but should also master a number of other skills, such as computer knowledge, knowledge of economics, foreign languages, etc., in order to be able to cope with the relatively demanding jobs in the future. In the process of choosing a career, in addition to focusing on traditional job search programs, such as corporate administrative assistant, secretarial jobs, but also should be noted that the media, publishing, advertising, marketing and other jobs in greater demand for talent, liberal arts students are more dominant. The pure science majors to do basic research, if usually good accumulation, in the popular industry also has an inherent advantage: the basic skills are solid, get started quickly. Graduates of these majors can also turn to related popular turn, such as turning to IT, finance, education and other industries.
Relatively speaking, self-employment is also a good choice for science students. Some students have some good technical ideas in the university and have obtained patents for their inventions; some have followed their tutors to conduct research and have achieved certain scientific research results, which have been transformed into tangible products through the university's industry-academia-research cooperation base. These can be used as the basis for entrepreneurship, but also to drive around the students *** with entrepreneurship, the formation of a virtuous employment chain.
2. Regional supply and demand for teacher training programs are not balanced
Surveys show that job stability and autonomy, and rising salaries have made teaching one of the most popular occupations.
From the point of view of the employment situation in big cities, the supply and demand of teacher-training students tends to be balanced, with the demand for teacher-training personnel in private educational institutions (including training institutions) accounting for a large proportion of the total.
Statistics show that among the various majors in the teacher training category, those in greater demand include pedagogy, special education, educational technology, mathematics, Chinese language and literature, English, Japanese, physics and computer science.
Beijing Normal University Employment Guidance Center Xiao Shuzhen believes that China began in 2003, the gradual implementation of a nationwide teacher certification system for the community to absorb teachers. At the same time, comprehensive institutions of higher learning are encouraged to participate in the training and training of primary and secondary school teachers, making the source of teachers diversified. However, due to the long-term influence of social recognition and school branding, the general education system remains the dominant employment field for teacher training colleges and universities, especially those under the Ministry of Education.
Due to the adjustment of China's education policy, a large number of private schools and vocational schools have sprung up in recent years, which has led to an increase in employment opportunities for teacher educators and has broadened the job market for graduates within the education system. However, it should not be overlooked that China's central and western regions are facing a lack of high-quality teachers, the grass-roots education system lack of preparation for the reality of the situation, while the big cities are becoming increasingly saturated with teaching positions, and is unlikely to receive a large number of graduates. Therefore, employment in the general education system faces greater competition and pressure. In the past two to three years, the capital cities of central and western provinces and some economically developed areas of the second and even third-tier cities have become hotspots for teacher training graduates seeking employment.
From the implementation of the national free teacher training policy, it can be seen that there is a great demand for teacher training personnel in the central and western regions. Therefore, in the next few years, teacher training graduates should also change their mindset and pay more attention to small and medium-sized cities and the central and western regions, where they can show their style and realize the value of their lives.
3. The employment of foreign language majors is becoming more and more diversified
With the gradual deepening of China's exchanges with the world, especially after the Beijing Olympic Games, China's demand for foreign language talents, it should be said that its employment prospects are optimistic.
But due to the overheated enrollment of foreign language majors in previous years, the overall employment trend in these years appears to be relatively stable. From the demand situation in recent years, the greatest demand is for English and Japanese. In addition, the demand for Russian, German, French, Spanish, Italian is also greater. It is easier for graduates of these languages to find employment, and high-level foreign language talents are in short supply. Some experts predict that after the Beijing Olympics, some small languages will also be popular.
Sun Mei, director of the Employment Guidance Center Office of Beijing Foreign Studies University, believes that in recent years, the direction of foreign language graduates has been completely diversified, in addition to the traditional diplomatic and foreign affairs field, more and more graduates to finance, communications, media, consulting, sports, logistics and other areas of employment. The expansion of employment field undoubtedly means the increase of employment opportunities. Those foreign language graduates who have solid language skills, and at the same time have the knowledge background of finance, law, economic and trade, diplomacy, journalism, Chinese and other backgrounds, fit the social demand for composite talents, which directly promotes the change of the training mode of foreign language talents.
At the same time, foreign language graduates can also get opportunities in the traditional employment advantage areas, such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Culture and other central ministries, as well as ministries and commissions under the institutions or press and publication agencies, library and intelligence agencies, foreign affairs agencies in various provinces and cities.
4. The law degree is a necessity
From the national civil service recruitment in 2008, we can see that the demand for law graduates in government departments is still strong.
In terms of absolute numbers, China's demand for talents in this specialty is greater, especially those specializing in foreign affairs. The legislature, the executive, the judiciary, and the arbitration institutions have to recruit law students from fresh graduates every year, while the enterprises pay more and more attention to the talents of law majors, and China's lawyers' profession is more urgently in need of replenishing a large number of high-quality lawyers' talents. China is now transforming into a society governed by the rule of law, and as the legal awareness of all people is gradually increasing, there is a strong demand for law professionals in the whole society.
But in recent years, the law graduates in the employment of considerable pressure: First, the society of the law graduates of the increasingly high academic requirements; Second, the number of graduates of this specialty surge.
As a result, the employment situation of undergraduates graduating from the law program in recent years is not optimistic, and this situation will continue for some time. Graduate students majoring in law will also begin to face certain employment pressures, and taking the judicial examination to obtain qualification certificates has become **** knowledge.
The Director of the Employment Guidance Center of China University of Political Science and Law, Mr. Xie Tingmin, believes that for law students, career orientation must address the following three issues: law students must not be "professional counterparts" to be able to make a difference? Do law students have to be employed in big cities above the provincial capitals (or even major central cities such as Beijing) in order to make a difference? Is it necessary for law students to have a postgraduate degree or above to be able to find a job and succeed in employment?
The employment of "professional counterparts" has become the preferred condition for the employment of law graduates for a certain period of time in the past. For law majors, the traditional employment field for the party and government agencies or the judicial system. But the current situation, law graduates must break the previous mindset, can see, in some areas of the central and western regions and the construction of new rural areas need a large number of legal education personnel, which is undoubtedly the contemporary law graduates of the "counterparts" to go.
5. Agricultural and forestry professional entrepreneurship continues to improve
In 2008, a substantial increase in the price of agricultural products for the development of agricultural and forestry professionals injected vitality, agricultural and forestry graduates in previous years, the difficult situation of employment has been somewhat improved.
In recent years, the country attaches great importance to agriculture, and constantly increase investment. In addition, the policy has also continued to come "good" news, the strategic adjustment of industrial structure and people's attention to the survival of the environment to the development of agriculture and forestry has brought the dawn of professional development. Therefore, although the overall employment situation of agricultural and forestry graduates is not as good as other professions, but we can see that in the next few years, the graduates of this specialty will be increasingly popular.
In the agriculture and forestry majors, social demand varies. It is very important to choose a profession with a promising future. The future demand will be more agricultural economics, animal husbandry, veterinary medicine, animal nutrition and feed processing, wood processing, furniture design and manufacturing, forest roads and bridges, gardening, forest chemical industry and other specialties.
In addition, graduates of agricultural and forestry majors have another broad employment path, that is, to the rural grassroots entrepreneurship. Regular attention to the news people will find, about college students to the rural areas to set up breeding factories, animal husbandry processing plants, flowers and fruit base of the report more and more. To the state-owned units to engage in scientific research and development, engaged in production and management can realize self-worth; to the grass-roots level to run their own business, active entrepreneurship, can also realize self-worth, and more challenging and creative.
6. Mechanical professionals at the forefront of the supply of talent
Check out the shortage of professionals in Beijing in the past seven years, you can find that most of the graduates of the mechanical class in the job market is still "hot".
National efforts in recent years to strengthen the equipment manufacturing industry, in view of the importance of the machinery industry and the huge scale of the need for a large team of professionals, the next period of time, the community will still have a greater demand for mechanical personnel. With the development of CNC talent will become the target of competition among enterprises, mechanical design, manufacturing and processing professionals have been in short supply in recent years.
From the perspective of the current development of the machinery industry, printing machinery, CNC machine tools, power generation equipment, engineering machinery and other heavy-duty product prospects remain favorable. In addition to these traditional industrial areas, the industry will further develop to the integration of machine optoelectronics, to the optical processing, environmental protection, such as the expansion of emerging areas.
After the reform of enterprises, the adjustment of industrial structure and the optimization of human resources allocation, the mechanical industry follows the pace of the market economy and the information age, showing a strong vitality, and the demand for talents will be further increased.
7. Economy class professional composite talents are favored
Marketing positions are the champion of the talent market demand list does not fall, from the relevant statistical data speculation, the sales of human resources in the next few years the demand is still hot.
Because all colleges and universities have basically set up marketing majors, resulting in increasing supply over the years, which is reflected in the talent market is that the salary level of the low-level marketing staff is pulled down. However, the overall employment situation of marketing graduates with good communication skills and mindset is good.
In addition, according to the 2007 Salary Income Survey, the overall salary level of the financial industry ranked high among many industries, and the financial industry attracts talents with high salaries. This is related to the demand for talents in the financial industry and its continuous adjustment and introduction of value-added services, and some emerging financial service organizations have gradually become a major absorber of financial talents.
Xu Fang, deputy director of the Central University of Finance and Economics Student Employment Guidance Center, believes that economic majors, especially finance, accounting graduates, to keep abreast of the times, familiar with international accounting, business practices, with the necessary knowledge of the international social and cultural background, and constantly broaden their horizons based on the new areas of the modern market economy, to master the new knowledge of modern management, and gradually train themselves to become both know how to run a business and good at management of the complex talents. Composite talents. In addition to possessing proficiency in regular business skills, students should also seriously study the knowledge of finance, finance, taxation, auditing, statistics and other aspects related to their specialties, and strive to improve their forecasting, decision-making, controlling and risk-resisting abilities, improve the quality of investment, financing and other financial decision-making, and improve business management. In short, students of these majors have more choices in the future, in addition to the accounting, auditing, taxation and other jobs we know, there are many other areas of practice.
8. The employment prospect of construction majors is still optimistic
While the real estate industry has been facing a series of pressures recently, the demand for real estate-related professions, including construction, design, planning, sales and other talents, is still strong in the talent market.
With the increase of national and local investment in infrastructure, the employment prospects of graduates in construction and real estate remain optimistic.
Especially in the past two years, road and bridge construction and other related professions have begun to heat up, which makes road and bridge planners become a best seller. Employers said that this is mainly related to the upgrading of the manufacturing industry and the current increase in urban infrastructure construction. Manufacturing upgrading urgently need to add fresh blood, infrastructure construction efforts to increase the urgent need for professionals.
9. Medical specialties in special areas of unlimited potential
Medical specialties belong to a relatively low degree of marketization of a profession, because now China's health care system reform is still deepening, and medical students employment flexibility is also poor.
But the overcrowding in hospitals still makes it understandable why medical students seldom go to the job market to submit their resumes.
With the deepening of the reform of the health care system, there will be more private hospitals, which makes medical students more sought after. Moreover, due to the increasing pressure of people's work and life, the disease rate is also increasing, the existing medical system can not fully meet the needs of the community, which formed a seller's market in the medical industry. Therefore, medical professionals will become more and more popular. According to the analysis of the relevant departments, talents engaged in geriatrics will be in demand in the future, and health practitioners and family nurses will also become popular talents. In addition, the demand for caregivers specializing in personal services will also increase.
10. The level of demand for art majors is rising
Are art majors overheating? Experts point out that works of art conveyed through vision are showing a variety of developments with the advancement of technology.
Traditional majors such as fine arts and music performance have gradually revealed problems such as narrow employment opportunities.
Traditional arts are constantly intersecting with computer technology, industry, architecture, management and other disciplines, giving rise to many new professions, which have accordingly become popular in recent years. Shanghai labor department has reported that at present, advertising design, industrial design, architectural design, environmental art design, public relations planning, animation production, game planning, game design and other professionals in short supply.
It goes without saying that the art profession is developing in the direction of multidisciplinary synthesis, and the application of practical art is becoming more and more extensive. Do not understand physics and architecture, you can not engage in architectural and decorative design; do not understand the computer can not do digital audio-visual works. This development of artistic disciplines also shows that art and cultural knowledge of other disciplines are complementary. The serious lack of cultural subjects "lame" graduates employment pressure is bound to be not small.
