Psychological preparation of college students for job hunting and career selection

1. Have a correct understanding of environmental changes.

From campus to work, college students often feel that they have lost a lot, such as freedom, glory and freedom, which often leads to a sense of loss. If college students who are already employees pretend to be college students, it will inevitably cause obstacles in adaptation, so college students should adapt to this role change as soon as possible.

2. Have a correct understanding of yourself.

College students can try to draw by themselves, judge their own advantages and disadvantages through self-analysis and evaluation, and understand their interests, hobbies, specialties, knowledge and ability level. It is difficult for a person to know himself completely and accurately, but this does not mean that we cannot have a comprehensive and objective understanding and evaluation of ourselves. Only by learning from each other's strengths can we enhance our psychological endurance to deal with setbacks. Only in this way can we control ourselves, change ourselves, improve ourselves and devote ourselves to our work better according to our actual situation.

3. Be confident.

Self-trust is the first secret of success. Lack of self-confidence means telling others that they lack vitality, low ability and poor adaptability, and it is difficult to succeed. Self-distrust comes from negative self-suggestion. A person always thinks that he is inferior to others, so he is doomed to be a failure. On the contrary, if you build up self-confidence, you will surely achieve the lofty goals he set.

4. Have a correct understanding of setbacks.

College graduates who have just joined the work will inevitably encounter setbacks because they have little life experience and work experience. Some people will doubt their abilities and lose confidence. Unfortunately, setbacks are everywhere in life. It depends on how you face them and how you overcome them. Only when there are setbacks can there be progress and success. Frustration is a good opportunity to exercise your will and improve your ability. After encountering setbacks, we should put down the psychological burden, carefully find the reasons for failure, adjust our goals and strive for new opportunities.

5. Establish good interpersonal relationships.

First of all, we should put down our airs, establish good interpersonal relationships, actively communicate with others, and turn ourselves into an open system, so as to please others while liberating ourselves. When a good interpersonal relationship is established, there is a guarantee of sincere cooperation in all aspects that may exist now and in the future, and someone will sincerely care for you, help you, and share joys and sorrows with you.

6. Overcome yourself.

Do a good job of starting from the grassroots and starting from small things. Only by following the historical trend, being down-to-earth and working hard can one prove his worth.

7. Achieve emotional independence.

If a person is always attached to others and family, can't achieve personal emotional independence and can't do things independently, then he will lack interest in the cause of doing things independently and will be eliminated by the market competition of survival of the fittest for a long time.

Job-seeking guidance for college students in choosing jobs.

In view of the current employment situation and college students' employment mentality, how to help students get out of the "misunderstanding" and maximize their own value, the relevant personnel of the Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Bureau believe that if they want to find a satisfactory job, they must master the real skills and improve their professional ability. Diploma cannot represent "ability". Employers pay attention to quality and ability, and the key is whether they are competent. We should seize every opportunity, learn knowledge well, get in touch with society more and improve our ability.

Industry insiders suggest that for fresh graduates, the difficulty in finding jobs is not a lack of jobs, but a lack of ideal jobs. At the job fair, Yang Shuyu, a recent computer major graduate of Texas University, turned her attention to small and medium-sized enterprises. In the morning, four companies showed great interest in him, and even one company said that it could try directly without an interview.

Regarding the phenomenon that college students lack a sense of belonging to enterprises, relevant experts pointed out that the employment stability of fresh graduates must be improved. This requires the joint efforts of enterprises and individuals: on the one hand, enterprises should speed up transformation and upgrading, improve economic benefits, and improve the matching rate of people and posts and income level; On the other hand, individuals should be clear about their employment goals and do what they like, instead of "eating in a bowl and watching in a pot" and doing things in a down-to-earth manner. Qi Sinan came to work in an enterprise in Texas through recruitment last year. During his work, he put the sense of corporate honor in the first place and enhanced his sense of identity and belonging to the enterprise. Now he has made great achievements in his work, and the enterprise promoted him as a design engineer.

In addition, colleges and universities should absorb the opinions of enterprises and graduates in curriculum design, and clearly set the core competence and indicators to be cultivated; Adapt to the introduction of part-time teachers, including enterprise managers, technical experts and well-known scholars; Strengthen employment services, provide more internship opportunities for students, improve the professionalism of employment service personnel, assist students to establish "employment ability cards", and record personal study and career development plans, achievements, practical experience, etc. At the same time, we should continue to speed up the establishment of practice bases in small and medium-sized enterprises and private enterprises and broaden employment channels.

Four job-hunting knowledge that graduate job seekers need to know in job hunting.

Here are four employment suggestions for low-skilled graduates.

The first is "choose what people need"

In other words, I have to think about what kind of employees I need from the perspective of the employer, not whimsical, just want to be in place in one step. Having a work unit suitable for your major is not afraid of being small, and getting exercise is the purpose.

The second is "choosing a professional director"

If the unit or industry you choose has development prospects, even if it is not a state organ, a multinational company or a hot industry, you should lower your psychological expectations and devote yourself to these tasks.

The third is "choosing a family to benefit"

It means that when choosing a career and unit, you should not always be self-centered, but consider it from the perspective of family and relatives, such as whether it is convenient to take care of your parents; You can't always find fault, but consider the feelings of your family.

The fourth is "choose your own strengths"

That is, interest plays a key role in people's enthusiasm for work. Psychological research has long found that doing what you like has a higher success rate. Therefore, don't care too much about external things, so as to give full play to your advantages.
