In response to this matter, Xiong Bingqi from the 21st Century Education Research Institute believes that this "complaint post" reflects the employment dilemma of graduates from prestigious schools. Affected by the "academic halo" of prestigious schools, graduates from prestigious schools, especially graduates from Qingbei, and their families have higher, even unrealistic, expectations for employment. When employers are unable to meet this expectation, huge consequences will arise. The gaps and imbalances make us either doubt ourselves or the academic system.

To get out of this employment dilemma, we must get rid of the theory of academic qualifications and prestigious schools only, and guide students and parents to correctly treat the relationship between academic qualifications, prestigious schools and employment. Domestic high schools and universities should pay attention to providing students with scientific career education and employment guidance, and guide students to make rational academic and career development plans.

Xiong Bingqi said that this graduate did not understand the employment market at all. At the same time, he also had a strong "academic complex" and believed that entering a "top university" should enjoy "top salary". This is the ultimate "Only academic qualifications" will not only affect your self-perception, but also hinder your career and career development.
