How do contemporary college students establish a correct outlook on career choice?

——One of the employment guidance lecture notes of Guiyang College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Vocational and Technical College Speaker: He Su Entering the 21st century, China's modernization construction has reached a critical period. With the launch of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way, modernization requires a large number of young and promising high-quality talents, and universities are the main base for cultivating talents. Therefore, my country's higher education implemented the enrollment expansion policy in a timely manner. The expansion of enrollment in colleges and universities shows on the one hand that modernization requires a large number of talents and the demand for college students is increasing day by day; on the other hand, it also indicates that the number of contemporary college students is huge and they no longer have the same sense of superiority as before. Therefore, contemporary college students should position themselves and change their employment concepts. 1. Changes in the social status of contemporary college students. As China’s modernization drive deepens, the demand for talents is increasing. China’s college students are not too many, but too few; college students are becoming more and more important in the modernization process. , it’s not that college students are useless, but that college students play a greater role. But on the other hand, with the expansion of enrollment in colleges and universities, the number of college students is increasing day by day, and the aura of the "ivory tower" is gradually receding, and college students can no longer regard themselves as elites everywhere. 1. The importance of college students has become increasingly prominent. As a developing country, under the situation of sustained and rapid economic development, talent is in short supply. Generally speaking, our country is short of talents, with a large number of job vacancies and an urgent need for college graduates to fill the positions. Such as the western region, vast rural areas, township enterprises, private enterprises, etc. These places all need knowledgeable college students to build and their intelligence. As China's modernization progresses to this day, it will inevitably require the popularization of education and the improvement of people's quality. Without the modernization of education, there will be no overall modernization of China. 2. College students’ sense of superiority no longer exists. The development of society is bound to lead to the popularization of knowledge. Higher education is increasingly opening its doors to all young people of school age. The value of college students is declining day by day, and their status in people’s minds is no longer so high. On the contrary, people used to say that there were many officials in Beijing, but now people say that there are many college students. College students can be found everywhere. You can see that at the bustling job fair, there are students graduating from various colleges and universities everywhere, anxiously looking for buyers. Therefore, current college students should clearly understand their situation, adjust their mentality, face reality calmly, and position themselves correctly. two. The construction of the employment concept of contemporary college students 1. Change the idea of ??"assigning work" and strive for employment opportunities. Today's society is a competitive society. If graduates want to find themselves a good job in the fierce competition, they must take the initiative and be good at performance. yourself, show your strengths and advantages to the employer, and let the employer appreciate you and hire you. To this end, contemporary college graduates should make career plans: ⑴Establish goals. Establishing goals can become the driving force for the pursuit of success, and the establishment of goals is the core of career planning. When formulating employment goals, college students should actively grasp the trend of social demand for talents and take social needs as the starting point and destination. They should not only see immediate benefits but also consider long-term development; they should not only consider personal factors, but also consciously obey the society. need. ⑵Self-evaluation. Know yourself, understand yourself, and choose a career path that suits your development. Fully understand your own career interests, personality, temperament, abilities, etc., and analyze your strengths, strengths, weaknesses, and shortcomings. ⑶Choice of career. When choosing a career, you should consider the matching of personality and occupation, the matching of interests and occupation, the matching of expertise and occupation, etc. ⑷ Develop action plans and measures. After the career goals are selected, action becomes the key link, which mainly refers to specific measures to implement the goals, including education, training, practice, etc. ⑸Evaluation and feedback. Successful career planning requires examining changes in the internal and external environment, constantly evaluating and revising your own plans, and adjusting your pace of progress. 2. Change the outdated definition of employment and establish the concept of self-employment. Some graduates regard jobs such as manual labor or the service industry as "lowly". They can only be considered employed when they are state cadres, have an iron rice bowl, or join a large enterprise; many graduates regard jobs such as manual labor or service industry as "lowly". College students only focus on jobs in big cities, large units, high income and high status. Graduates should establish the concept that as long as they obtain legal remuneration and income through labor, they are employed. They should change the concept of high and low occupations, put down their airs, and lower their expectations. Judging from the current employment situation, the national macro-policy encourages graduates to start their own businesses. Colleges and universities are gradually paying attention to self-employment. The society needs self-employed talents.

This can not only solve the employment problem of graduates themselves, but more importantly, it can create more job opportunities. Therefore, self-employment is a major trend in future employment. Excellent students who are capable of starting a business should fearlessly start a business even if they can find an ideal job. This can free up positions for some students; students who have not yet implemented a job can also fight against the odds and stimulate their potential to start a business. Self-employment should become a proactive and heartfelt requirement. "All roads lead to Rome". Faced with the reality that it is becoming increasingly difficult to find a job, new values ??of work and employment should be promoted and college graduates should be encouraged to start their own businesses. Schools should vigorously cultivate such talent pioneers. Self-employment does not necessarily mean opening a company. College students can choose to open retail stores, open bars, work as freelance writers, etc. Graduates majoring in medicine are best to choose clinics or pharmacies. Now there is no condition to be independent. Start a business, but you can help those who have been successful in the past, work under them, and be their assistants, so that you can accumulate everything you need to start a business in the future. Why can't you start from a small clinic or a small pharmacy? Why can't you start a small clinic or a small pharmacy? What if it cannot develop into large hospitals, chain pharmacies, pharmaceutical factories, and pharmaceutical companies? 3. Change the concept of natural talents and position themselves correctly. The employment of college students has begun to move from the elite stage to the mass employment stage. On the other hand, college students have gradually transitioned from "the sweethearts of heaven" to "ordinary people", which will inevitably require some graduates to engage in mass employment. The most basic and general work that is suitable. Current graduates must adapt to the market, adjust their expectations, determine a popular view of employment, and go to the west and to the grassroots. It is difficult for contemporary college students to position themselves in the following three aspects: ① Do not understand themselves. Some people never seriously think about and understand themselves, and blindly use social hot spots to position themselves. ② Psychological factors are at play. Many graduates are affected by their own psychological factors when positioning themselves, and often find it difficult to make rational choices. It is often seen that graduates follow the herd or rebel in their career choices. Many people have too much self-esteem or too low self-esteem. ③There are too many interfering factors. Among them are restrictions from parents, restrictions from employment policies, etc., as well as interference from some unfair phenomena and unexpected factors. Graduates should pay attention to the following points when deciding on their own position: first, they must consider their own skills, experience, and majors; secondly, they must consider their own personality characteristics, the nature and location of the work, the people working with them, and the expectations of others. Chinese society has long had a phenomenon of excessive concentration of state resources on the elite. For decades, the entire society has held the view that after graduating from college, one becomes a state cadre. College students are natural talents and will never be unemployed. This kind of social value bias gives many college students a natural sense of superiority in their employment concepts, which has given rise to a kind of professional prejudice and even professional discrimination. China's higher education will continue to expand in scale, and college students' employment difficulties will continue. College students should adjust their employment concepts and enhance market adaptability, and should realize the transformation from college students' natural talent concept to knowledgeable ordinary workers as soon as possible. 4. Lower career expectations and expand employment areas. Some college students have excessive career expectations. The so-called career expectation value refers to the degree to which the job seeker's material and spiritual needs are satisfied by the career position he wants to obtain. Every graduate hopes to get a job after graduation that can more and better meet his material and spiritual life needs, but it must be noted that this demand may be restricted by his own conditions and objective factors. There must be a certain degree of expectation when choosing a career. If you don't grasp this "degree" well, you will inevitably fall into misunderstandings in choosing a career. In the past, college graduates generally tended to stay in big cities, even if they were struggling for quotas. With the development of society, the number of talents is increasing day by day, and the competition for employment has become more intense. There are very few jobs left in big cities and the talent pool is full. Why don't contemporary students choose to go to small towns and remote areas? Those places need your contribution and give you broad space for development. Many college graduates hold the concept that "men are afraid of entering the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man." They regard their major as sacred and cling to it. They require that the jobs provided by the employer must correspond to their major, otherwise Would rather not be employed. This approach is not advisable. Graduates should change their thinking of "non-majors and quit", face up to the difficulty of employment, handle their employment flexibly, and do not hang themselves on a tree. Many college graduates are crowded in the formal sector when choosing a career, and are unwilling to go to the informal sector.

In fact, many jobs provided by the informal sector often require one person to cover several aspects, which can more comprehensively exercise and cultivate personal abilities and provide better development space. Students should take a longer-term view, and don’t stop going if they can’t make a profit in the short term. Don’t compete with your classmates to see who signed a better company or who went to a bigger city. In the past, graduates all went to state-owned enterprises, while few were willing to go to private enterprises, foreign-funded enterprises, foreign-funded enterprises, and township and village enterprises. The reason is that at that time, state-owned enterprises had security, good benefits, and could solve the household registration problem; while private enterprises were relatively weak, had no security, and did not have many benefits. However, with the gradual establishment of the market economy, small and flexible private enterprises have gradually become popular, with high economic benefits. However, due to poor management and lack of separation between government and enterprises, large state-owned enterprises have become increasingly inefficient and on the verge of bankruptcy. What's more, the scope of the country's welfare security policies is expanding day by day, gradually extending to private enterprises; household registration is no longer so important, and the household registration system will one day be abolished. In the future, employment in private enterprises may be a good choice, especially in township and village enterprises, where there is a vast space for students to display their talents. In China, the number of small and medium-sized enterprises accounts for more than 99% of the total number of enterprises. Their business scope covers almost all industries and fields of the national economy. They provide about 75% of urban jobs and account for more than 80% of the new jobs created every year. However, the shortage of talents is One of the main problems restricting the development of small and medium-sized enterprises is that some small and medium-sized enterprises have backward management, low product quality, weak technological innovation capabilities, and weak market competitiveness. Actively encouraging college graduates to enter small and medium-sized enterprises will not only help improve the talent structure of small and medium-sized enterprises and improve the quality of the workforce, but also help promote the employment and proper placement of college graduates. It can be said to be a win-win situation. Small and medium-sized enterprises, especially small and medium-sized enterprises or private enterprises in the period of development and growth, are often hungry for talents due to the shortage of technical personnel. If you go to such an enterprise, you may have more training opportunities and be able to "show your talent". Mountain dew". There may be more room for personal development in small and medium-sized enterprises. 5. Enhance their own abilities and improve their psychological quality. Contemporary college students should enhance their sense of competition, understand the difficulties of future employment, study hard during school, improve their own abilities, and add weight to their future career choices. The carefree and stress-free days of putting money in a safe after entering college no longer exist. Contemporary college students should strengthen their ability and quality cultivation according to social needs and improve their social competitiveness. We should pay attention to and improve our comprehensive quality, especially our innovation and practical abilities, as well as the concepts and awareness corresponding to this. To improve one's own quality and enhance competitiveness, in addition to good professional knowledge and skills, it also requires good ideological and moral qualities, strong work ability, innovative ability and professionalism. Enterprises particularly favor compound talents with expertise. The kind of "memory-type", "knowledge-type" and "scholar-type" college students no longer adapt to the requirements of modern society. However, student cadres, party members, and three-good students have a solid foundation in English, are good at computers, have award-winning certificates, and Graduates with strong expressive skills are often favored. Some college students are at a loss when it comes to choosing a career. They are not clear about what kind of work they want to do and what kind of work they can do. They lack self-confidence and adaptability, showing a lack of psychological preparation; some college students are proud and complacent because of their connections. , get carried away. Contemporary college students should improve their psychological quality when choosing a career and make positive psychological preparations to avoid being impatient, disappointed, panicked, blaming others, and giving up on themselves when they cannot find a good job for a while; they should strengthen the cultivation of good psychological quality, build self-confidence, and correctly Know yourself; you should improve your psychological endurance, and be able to deal with setbacks in job hunting and career choices in a calm and calm manner. Although setbacks are not pleasant, they can give people experience and opportunities to exercise. The weak will be dejected in the face of setbacks, while the strong will regard setbacks as motivation to move forward. Therefore, when you encounter setbacks, you need to treat them correctly, don't look for trouble, learn lessons from them, and seek goals again. I wish all students a bright future in the near future!
