What is the major of news English? How about employment?

Literature major: the counterpart employment rate is not high, and cross-bank employment is more popular.

Journalism, as a practical subject, has existed in the enrollment catalogue of colleges and universities in China for many years. Since 1998, the admission scores of journalism majors have soared year by year, with a large number of applicants and high admission scores, which also highlights the high entry threshold of the media industry and the value that media talents should reflect.

In the impression of many people, journalism should be a good job, but the reality is that the employment rate of journalism is not high. 10 years ago, most people in a class of journalism major went to work in the media. In the past decade, it has become increasingly difficult for graduates to enter the media, and the situation of oversupply has become more and more obvious. Including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Wuhan and other well-known cities with concentrated journalism departments, the counterpart employment rate of journalism graduates is also declining year by year.

The survey found that in order to further improve the quality of reporting, some media are no longer limited to recruiting graduates majoring in journalism. With the gradual integration of China's media industry, the continuous integration of various media groups and the intensification of market competition, it is increasingly necessary for journalism graduates with high comprehensive quality to adapt to the new media format. Therefore, graduates majoring in journalism will be more popular in cross-bank employment if they learn miscellaneous things and have lively ideas.

English major: "Red card warning major" should be specialized in one subject and multi-functional.

In the employment report of college students in China in 20 12, English major was listed as "red card warning major" for undergraduate employment in 20 12. Without other professional knowledge, they seem to be an awkward group in the employment force. In the vast sea of people, they don't know where to go.

It can be said that at present, the development of the whole society has undergone tremendous changes. English has become a tool, and more and more people can use it freely. With China's opening to the outside world and the gradual popularization of English education, the environment for learning English is constantly improving. Many entrepreneurs or managers already have this skill, and they no longer need specialized English talents to help them. In this case, the demand for pure English learners is greatly reduced. At the same time, the English level of non-English majors is constantly improving, becoming a strong opponent of English majors. Therefore, English majors will face greater pressure.

Indeed, apart from teachers, full-time translators and language learning, English is only a necessary auxiliary tool for most jobs, not a job skill. Compound talents with solid English skills are very popular with employers. What many employers want now is not people who can talk to foreigners, but professional and skilled talents who can talk business and sign contracts with them in English. Therefore, you must learn English well. If you have enough time, you'd better take more relevant English certificates at school, such as BEC, such as TEM-8 and so on.
