I remember when I was in medical school, I had to choose the best students to enter medical school. The recent hot news is that the test scores of medical schools are getting lower and lower, and even many medical students have switched to other majors. At present, the medical industry is facing the embarrassing situation that no one wants to study medicine or engage in the medical industry after graduation. We know that some doctors say that they no longer want their children to study medicine.
Career prospects
According to the medical market survey, most medical graduates are optimistic about big cities and economically developed coastal areas, positioning their careers in cities, big hospitals and units with good economic benefits, and their employment expectations are too high. However, the medical and health institutions in big cities and developed areas are becoming increasingly saturated, and the competition in the medical talent market is becoming increasingly fierce. In principle, comprehensive medical institutions in large and medium-sized cities and county-level medical institutions in economically developed areas all need master's degrees, followed by CET-6 and computer basic certificates. Therefore, the expectation of medical graduates in job hunting is too high, which makes it difficult to find jobs.
Specialty and employment
Judging from the college entrance examination scores, the admission scores of medical colleges and majors are generally high. However, according to the authoritative data survey of the employment situation of college graduates for three consecutive years in China, clinical medicine is in the forefront of the "unemployment rate list of major undergraduate majors", and the unemployment rate for half a year after graduation is 23. 1%, while traditional Chinese medicine ranks sixth with 18.4%. Among the top ten undergraduate majors with low employment rate, medicine occupies two. Among the top ten higher vocational majors with unemployment rate half a year after graduation, clinical medicine also ranks first with 28.5%.
Being a doctor is not easy.
It is an indisputable fact that medical majors lead to narrow employment. Especially in clinical medicine, there are many graduates every year, and the official employment rate is around 60%. In fact, many medical students actually enter the hospital after graduation, less than 40%. The system of big hospitals in China is basically a national institution, and medical students want to enter good hospitals in big cities. Therefore, the employment rate of hospitals in big cities like Beijing and Shanghai is quite low. The establishment of public hospitals is limited, and the development of private hospitals in China is very general, so it is impossible to digest a large number of graduates every year. Not only undergraduates, but also graduate students of clinical medicine have started to look for jobs in recent years.
Of course, it is difficult to find a job for many reasons. Most people can't get into big hospitals, and small hospitals don't want to go. Many graduates eventually become medical representatives or sell medical equipment. Doctors study at the age of 20, mature at the age of 40, and can work until they retire at the age of 60. After retirement, he was rehired by the hospital. In this way, the on-the-job doctors occupy a long time, and it is more difficult for newcomers to enter the hospital from the law of natural renewal and elimination.
Not all majors are difficult to find employment.
Under the pressure of employment, many medical college students get higher academic qualifications, especially medical majors. The employment threshold of many units is doctors. The proportion of medical majors going abroad or pursuing advanced studies is very high, and many colleges and universities are above 50%.
Of course, not all medical majors are hard to find jobs. Among the top 50 major undergraduate majors, there are medical imaging and nursing. Medical imaging ranked seventh with 96.3%, and nursing ranked 15 with 94.7% employment rate.
The undergraduate major of basic medicine is controlled by the state, aiming at teaching and scientific research in medical colleges. Although the employment rate is not too high, on the whole, the rate of going abroad for basic medicine is quite high.
There are fewer undergraduate nursing colleges, and the work of undergraduate nursing students is also good. If you pass the English exam, you can also apply to be a nurse abroad, and the treatment is very good.
Radiation medicine and medical imaging are mainly to train people who can engage in imaging medicine (radiation, CT, magnetic vibration, B-ultrasound, etc.). ), medical imaging education and scientific research. Employment is also good, but it may do some harm to your health.
The employment export of preventive medicine is mainly CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention). Generally, there is only one CDC in a region, so the employment rate is not high, but graduates of preventive medicine are good at statistics, research and experiments.
Where can I find a job if I can't go to a big hospital?
Any "good" and "bad" are relative, not static. If it is difficult to find employment for medical majors, or it is difficult to find employment for clinical medicine, it is often graduates themselves who limit the scope of job hunting.
Medical students can have many good development directions in addition to employment in hospitals such as Grade A and Grade B. For example, primary medical work units, health management centers, health managers, health knowledge popularization and so on.
Even if you don't want to be a doctor after graduating from medical school, a few years of education in medical school will not make it difficult for you to find a job. About half of the students currently graduated from my college work in hospitals, and some work in pharmaceutical companies, finance, media, teaching, investment and the Internet. After five to eight years of medical school training, you can get a different way of thinking from others. People who study medicine are usually more rational and objective. I hope my answer can help you.
