Why is it getting harder and harder for college students to find jobs now?

Severe employment situation. Over the past 40 years of reform and opening up, with the rapid development of China's social economy, various emerging industries have emerged in an endless stream, and the demand for various talents has been expanding. Accordingly, in order to meet the demand of talent market, China's colleges and universities have continuously expanded their enrollment in the past 20 years, creating a large number of talents urgently needed by society, solving the talent gap from all aspects and solving the contradiction between talent supply and demand. There are two outstanding aspects:

"Labor shortage" and "employment difficulty" coexist. Many emerging industries can't recruit much-needed talents, resulting in the so-called "talent shortage", while a large number of college graduates can't find suitable jobs, resulting in the so-called "employment difficulty". The coexistence of these two phenomena highlights the asymmetry of talent training mechanism and the smoothness and lag of talent market information. There is a serious disconnect between education and skills. Colleges and universities have trained a large number of unqualified college students, especially in terms of only academic qualifications and no skills, which makes employers have to go to training, increases social costs, and also makes contemporary college students lose credibility and users' sense of social responsibility decline. The employment situation is even more severe.

The change of employment concept and choice. As college graduates with lofty aspirations, successful studies and returning to society, they must establish a scientific and correct outlook on employment and job selection, face the actual situation of social employment, and actively adapt to social needs, not the other way around. The old concept of "waiting, relying and wanting" should not be allowed. When choosing a job, we should pay attention to both material needs and spiritual satisfaction, and have the spirit of dedication and hard work. "There will never be a pie in the sky", even if you remove the pie that looks good and delicious, it will often become your trap! At the same time, we should be pragmatic, down-to-earth, and establish the spirit of hard struggle; Don't be vain, just want to live comfortably and have fun. A really good job depends on your own efforts.

College students should not only have academic qualifications, but also pay attention to skills. Nowadays, there are too many opportunities and opportunities for career success in this society. The key is whether you, as a college student, have the ability to seize these opportunities and opportunities! Education is only proof of learning ability and knowledge level, and skills are lifelong ability. Educational skills have become a new passport for college students in this era.
