Analysis of graduate employment cases

Case 1: Expectations are too high

Xiao Wang, a graduate of the class of 1998, is from Luoping, Yunnan. He had not confirmed his work unit until March of that year. The author went to attend the supply and demand coordination meeting of the State Administration of Medicine and brought his application materials to help him implement the unit. It happened that there was a pharmaceutical factory in Luoping that wanted him. It was a professional match and it was his hometown. However, his personal intention of choosing a career was that the location of the unit must be in Kunming. It didn't matter which unit in Kunming or what kind of job he would do. Other than that, , no unit is considered. In this kind of mentality, the results will naturally be difficult to achieve.

Analysis: Xiao Wang’s thoughts are somewhat representative in the career selection process of current graduates. Many graduates yearn too much for economically developed areas, especially central cities in coastal areas. Their lowest expectation is to return to the central city where their hometown is. They only focus on the aspects of economic and cultural development and superior working environment, but ignore the aspect of abundant talents and relative surplus. Their career expectations remain high and even increase year by year, resulting in a huge gap between subjective desires and actual needs. .

There are many graduates like Xiao Wang who place too much emphasis on the location of their workplace. According to the author's sample questionnaire survey of the 1998 graduates of our school, when measuring whether the unit meets their own standards, 92% of the graduates want to choose a unit with good benefits and high wages, and more than 85% of the graduates require that the unit is located in a large or medium-sized university. Only 2% of urban graduates are willing to go to remote areas and difficult industries where talents are urgently needed.

Case 2: Poor ability to choose a career independently

At a small job fair held by the school in March this year, graduate Xiao Li’s parents came early before the job fair even started. Go to the venue to inquire about the unit. Long after the job fair started, Little B arrived late and was accompanied by his parents to the employer's booth for an interview. During the interview, Xiao Li didn't have as much time to speak as his parents. As a result, he talked with one person after another, but still got nothing in the end.

Analysis: Xiao Li’s problem lies in his over-reliance on others in the process of choosing a career. In fact, it is difficult to choose a satisfactory job if you rely on others. Among current graduates, the proportion of only children is increasing. Their lives have been smooth sailing and they have experienced no setbacks. Coupled with the excessive care of their parents, this has objectively cultivated their dependence. Most of these graduates lack independent opinions and have vague self-awareness. They are often at a loss when choosing a career and have poor ability to make independent career decisions. As a result, in the talent market, it is not uncommon for parents to replace their children and relatives and friends to negotiate with employers on their behalf. No wonder employers say to graduates who are too dependent: "You have to rely on others to sell your products. Can companies still rely on you to sell their products?"

Case 3: Lack of confidence and initiative

Graduate Xiao Liu has good academic performance and other conditions, and is full of confidence in the early stages of employment. However, due to reasons such as the unpopularity of my major, I hit a wall in several employers. As a result, I developed a sense of inferiority. My performance became worse and worse in the subsequent job selection process, and I fell into a vicious cycle and could not extricate myself, so that I went to a new employer. , I could only passively ask people: "Do you want to study such-and-such major?" and dared not say anything else. In the end, I failed to find an employment unit.

Analysis: Xiao Liu’s failure was due to his inferiority complex. After suffering setbacks in choosing a career, they are unable to recover. They have a low evaluation of themselves and lose the self-confidence they should have. They lack the psychological preparation to proactively strive for and take advantage of opportunities when choosing a career. They dare not take the initiative and boldly talk to employers, and they cannot do well. express yourself. The more evasive, timid, and timid you are, the less likely you are to win the favor of the employer. This mentality has seriously hindered the normal employment competition of some graduates, causing those graduates who were originally outstanding in certain aspects to fall into the confusion of "defeating without fighting".

Case 4: Conceited and failed

Graduate Xiao D is very eloquent and felt good about himself during the interview with the employer representative. After a lofty talk, when the other party asked him what his personal hobbies were, he proudly declared that it was "traveling in mountains and rivers". As a result, he was rejected by the employer without hesitation.

Analysis: Little D’s failure was caused by typical conceited psychology.

Conceit in psychology refers to overestimating one's abilities and thus losing self-knowledge. Under the control of this kind of mentality, many graduates are always self-righteous in the process of job hunting and career selection; they are arrogant and arrogant, thinking that they know everything and can do everything, and they brag and talk nonsense. As a result, the employer is left with impetuousness. , The impression of being unreliable. Just imagine, which company is willing to hire someone who is ignorant and conceited. What about graduates who have high ambitions but low ambitions? (Xie Hongmei, Li Mahang and Zhu Hui from the Employment Guidance Office of Zhejiang University)

Case 5: The requirements are so demanding that the unit cannot accept them

A graduate of our school’s modern financial management major went through double selection with a group company , interview and assessment, and finally entered the signing stage. The agreement was first signed by the graduate himself. The student wrote the following 6 requirements in the "Application Opinions" column: (1) Engage in accounting work; (2) Weekly Five days of work, eight hours a day; (3) Household registration is settled and single housing is provided; (4) Housing provident fund, labor insurance, pension insurance and other related expenses are borne by the company; (5) Salary is adjusted every six months; ( 6) The company does not restrict personal development (such as postgraduate entrance examinations, etc.). In view of the above conditions, the company could not fully agree to the agreement, so it returned the agreement and suggested that it should be revised before signing. In the end, the student failed to be hired because he insisted on his own opinions.

Analysis: The fundamental reason why this student was not hired by the above-mentioned unit is that the requirements were too harsh. The author once contacted the person in charge of the human resources department of the group to understand why the above conditions could not be fully agreed. The person in charge said that some of the 6 requirements put forward by this classmate can be met and should be met, such as: arranging professional Corresponding jobs, eight-hour work system, household registration, various benefits, etc. However, some funds cannot be agreed to. For example, salary increases every six months are probably not something any unit can agree to. Another example is the article "The company does not restrict personal development." From the perspective of graduates, it is understandable to make such a request, but from the perspective of an employer, we encourage individuals to improve their own quality as long as it does not affect normal work, but if If you want to take the postgraduate entrance examination during the service period, you can take the postgraduate entrance examination without any restrictions from the unit. The unit will certainly not allow it. Although this student has good conditions in all aspects, we cannot accept such harsh conditions.

Case 6: Passively waiting and missing a good opportunity

A unit in Zhejiang released information to the school that it would recruit a large number of talents at the school. The school’s employment guidance center quickly announced the announcement and notified all colleges by phone. , various colleges had different reactions. Some college secretaries personally called the other party to recommend their qualified graduates, some took the initiative to invite the other party to the college to select graduates, and some sent the students' application by express mail. Recommended materials. At the same time, some students are waiting for the interview notice, thinking that the unit is coming to the school to recruit anyway, and it will not be too late to submit materials when it comes. Later, when this unit really came, the person in charge of the human resources department was very apologetic and said: "I'm really sorry. In fact, we had arrived at your school a few days ago, but as soon as we entered your school, we were stopped by a certain college in your school. We were kindly intercepted and stayed at your school's guest house at night. Graduations came one after another after hearing the news. As a result, our plans were full in advance. "The graduates present regretted it, and the opportunity was just waiting for them. Missed it.

Analysis: In the process of job search and career selection, opportunities should be equal to everyone, it depends on how you grasp it. All kinds of talent recruitment information are released and transmitted through various channels at all times. It is like a river. Information is like waves. If you catch it, it is yours. If you miss it, you can't go back. Therefore, as long as you are sure that this information is useful to you and you are interested in it, you must take the initiative to respond to the party that sent the message in the fastest way, so that the other party can know you and understand you, so that they may take a fancy to you. Opportunities are often owned by those who take the initiative.

Case 7: Clever answers open the door to job hunting

In an interview organized by a certain unit in Shanghai, the examiner asked two candidates the same question: "Our unit is One of the country's leading large group companies has many subsidiaries. All employees who are hired must go to the grassroots level for training. The conditions at the grassroots level are relatively difficult. Are you mentally prepared?" Graduate A (our school) said: "Hardship is good for you. It is not a problem for me because I grew up in a rural area. My father died young and my mother is old. I am happy to work at the grassroots level. Only by working hard at the grassroots level can I accumulate rich work experience and lay the foundation for future development.

"Graduate (B) (foreign school) replied: "I think it is necessary to go to the grassroots level for training. I will make every effort to overcome difficulties and work well, but as a young person, I always hope to have opportunities for development. I don't know what your company's arrangements are. How long are we going down? Is it still possible to come up? "As a result, the former student was hired and the latter student was eliminated.

Analysis: During the interview process, the skills of answering questions are very important. The answers to some questions may seem reasonable and understandable on the surface, but But it disgusts the examiner. This is because the examiner does not care about the content of your answer, but rather examines your attitude towards the question itself, and then understands your attitude towards your career, etc. Obviously, in this case, candidate A is not interested in the lower level. The examiner appreciated his correct and sincere attitude. However, Candidate B obviously had concerns. Although it is human nature, his answer was obviously inappropriate in this situation.

Case 8: Don’t give up any time. Opportunity

When a graduate arrived at a certain job market in Hangzhou, it was already past 3 o'clock in the afternoon. At this time, many units had already filled up their staff and left, and the remaining units were also sorting out materials. Thinking about calling it a day, he submitted the last application materials to a certain unit he was interested in with a try mentality, and sincerely explained the reason for his late arrival. Unexpectedly, he received the interview notice from the unit just two days later. A formal agreement was signed a week later, and it was a journey full of difficulties and a bright future.

Analysis: Generally speaking, when going out to participate in talent recruitment, you should hurry up sooner rather than later, but there are some objective factors that make it impossible. In this situation, you have to be adaptable, be calm and patient. Sometimes, if you wait patiently until the end, the fun will come later. It will also leave a deep impression on the unit.

Case 9: The oral agreement is invalid

A certain unit accepted a graduate from our school who had passed the physical examination, political review and other procedures. The employer agreed to hire the student, but asked the school to stamp and sign the student's opinion before they agreed. For the sake of caution, the school's employment guidance center repeatedly reminded the graduates to wait for the employer to stamp it first. , the school stamped it again, but both the employer and the student were very anxious. The employer said: "We have agreed to accept it anyway. As long as it is convenient for the students and the procedures are simplified, it doesn't matter who stamps it first." The student said: "I have passed both the physical examination and the political examination. Please give me a chance. I am willing to write a guarantee that I will be responsible for the consequences of incomplete procedures." "And the leader of the student's hospital also called to intercede. In view of this, the school stamped it first. Unexpectedly, just two days later, the unit returned the student's agreement.

Analysis: Sign Agreements must be made with caution. The agreement between both parties must be written down in writing, stamped, and signed before it becomes effective. "Gentlemen's Agreements" and "Oral Agreements" are empty promises and have no legal effect. Once a dispute occurs, the interests of graduates cannot be obtained. Protection. Therefore, graduates must learn to protect themselves. Generally speaking, it is best for graduates to go to the unit to sign and sign in person. If the agreement must be sent to be signed, the unit should first issue a written acceptance letter to ensure that everything is safe.

Case 10: The additional agreement must weigh the pros and cons

A graduate took the postgraduate entrance examination, but the results had not yet come out, and he was not sure, so he tried his best to apply for a job in a certain unit. The employer formally requested a contract and pressed for it urgently, otherwise the student would be considered for another candidate, fearing that he would miss the opportunity, so he signed the contract in a hurry and did not carefully consider the additional content: "During the service period, he is not allowed to make requests for further education, going abroad, transfer, etc. for any reason. Otherwise, a certain amount of liquidated damages will be paid. "Soon, the admission scores for graduate students came out, and then the student received an admission notice from a certain school. The student regretted it, but the employer did not agree to change the agreement; "He had no choice but to give up the opportunity for further study and fulfill the agreement.

Analysis: During the contract signing process, many units will note additional terms of the agreement, such as "must obtain a bachelor's degree", "must pass physical examination", "how many years of service period", "how much is the liquidated damages" ..." etc. Graduates should read these contents carefully and weigh the pros and cons. In particular, the service period and liquidated damages should consider their own actual situation and affordability.

Case 11: Taking advantage of two different things and bringing the blame upon yourself

Some graduates of our school used the agreement issued by the school to sign a contract with someone from a certain unit in Zhejiang, and then used the exam to obtain the contract without authorization A graduate student's agreement was signed with a certain unit in Guangzhou on the same day. The agreement from unit B was stamped and authenticated by the school. The student later regretted and wanted to go to unit A. As a last resort, he had to go to unit B and lied that the school wanted him to take the agreement back and reissue it. The formalities were completed by a certain time, and the employer believed him and returned all the agreements to him. As soon as he got the agreement, he went to school and lied that the employer had deceived him and that he could not resolve the issue of his household registration. He returned the request and asked the school to stamp the agreement on unit A. To be cautious, the school contacted unit B and learned that the student had acted dishonestly. It severely criticized him and ordered him to apologize to the unit and requested understanding. Unexpectedly, the student claimed to be a law major and claimed that the company did not have any evidence (that is, the agreement was not in hand). Company B was so angry that he called the school and called the school: accusing the student of being outrageous, deceiving both the company and the school. If you have bad moral conduct, you hope that the school will give you severe punishment, otherwise it will affect the reputation of the school in the future. In the end, the student ended up in "disrepute".

Analysis: Signing a contract is a very serious matter. Once signed and sealed by all parties, it will be legally binding. Each party has the responsibility and obligation to perform the agreement and may not change the agreement at will. In the above case, the students violated the principle of good faith, knew the law and violated the law, signed multiple contracts, and lied everywhere to escape responsibility. This is an extremely unethical behavior that not only harms your own interests, but also tarnishes the reputation of the school.

Case 12: Paying attention to one thing and losing another, the gain outweighs the gain

A graduate of our school’s School of Economics this year went out to look for a job in the second semester of his senior year, and later internship in the unit, he missed the opportunity Due to an absence from the exam for a certain course that semester, the course failed and had to be retaken, resulting in irreparable losses. Due to the retakes, graduation certificate, and degree cannot be obtained on time, so it must be postponed to report to the work unit. A few months of salary loss will not be counted, and the work unit may be returned to the school.

Analysis: Graduates must properly handle the relationship between job hunting and knowledge seeking in the second semester of their senior year. Job hunting is important, but it should not affect normal learning. The students in the above cases obviously did not handle this relationship well, so that they lost more than they gained. (Shu Tao, Nanchang University)

Editor's note:

The employment interview for college students is an essential process in the graduation application process. The above introduces the common questions encountered during the interview process. Problems and how to deal with them. In fact, the most important thing is to maintain a good attitude during the interview, know yourself correctly, don't overestimate your abilities and don't belittle yourself. Ask questions and answer them. Tell the truth. Covering up is the worst. Methods: Recruitment examiners of modern interviews, especially large and well-known companies (especially foreign companies), have received training in talent quality assessment and interview skills in human resource management, mastered relevant psychological knowledge and had a lot of experience, covering up It is the weakness of the interviewee, but the behavior of doing nothing here is the easiest way to expose one's weakness to the examiner. Once discovered, it will affect the examiner's trust in the interviewee and do something to the interviewee. Making judgments such as lack of confidence is self-defeating. This is also the most important reason why many interviewers fail.

College students must correct their attitude when looking for a job. Don’t expect too much from a good position. It is difficult to make outstanding achievements without work experience. Even if you succeed in applying, it will bring you and The unit can only be a huge disappointment. When you first start working, you should have a learning attitude, hone yourself in difficulties, and use the work passion and innovative thinking of college students to make a good start for your career.
