Is salary a catalyst for students to take the postgraduate entrance examination?

Recently, the preliminary results of the 20 17 college entrance examination have been announced one after another, and the number of applicants exceeded 2 million for the first time this year, setting a record high. Many factors, such as candidates' "brushing academic qualifications" and employers' "highly educated plots", have given birth to the "postgraduate entrance examination fever".

Recently, a news of "recruiting doctoral security guards in colleges and universities" once triggered a heated public discussion. It is understood that in recent years, the post of university counselor also requires a doctorate. An on-the-job college counselor who did not want to be named explained to reporters, "Now college counselors generally require a master's degree, but since last year, they have cancelled the preparation of newly recruited master's degree counselors. If they want to be admitted, they must have a doctorate. "

At present, civil servants and institutions generally require "high education" in the examination. For example, in this year's examination of provincial institutions in Shandong Province, a total of 437 positions were listed, of which 195 required a postgraduate degree, accounting for about 45%. In this year's civil service (provincial) examination in Jiangsu Province, the proportion of posts requiring postgraduate education is as high as 56%.

In addition, some enterprises still pay their employees according to their academic qualifications, and the salary is determined by "origin". Among them, the average monthly income of junior college students is 3004.96 yuan; The average monthly income of undergraduates is 3459.87 yuan, which is higher than that of junior college students 15. 14%. The average monthly income of graduate students is 4692.04 yuan, which is 35.6 1% higher than that of undergraduate students. All these have an impact on the psychology of college graduates, so they choose to take the postgraduate entrance examination to improve their employment competitiveness and get higher salaries.

I hope everyone will treat the postgraduate entrance examination rationally!
