Job-hunting
Situation
:
As is illustrated in the pictures, thousands of students in Henan and Zhejiang Province
went to two job fairs to find jobs. Job hunting has been a headache for college graduates.
Each
year
thousands
of
graduates
flood
into
the
job
market,
waving
their
college
diplomas and certificates, expecting good jobs related to their majors, only to be frustrated
and disappointed. Even many graduates from prestigious universities fail to find suitable
jobs. Why do college graduates find it difficult to get a rewarding job?
The
number
of
college
graduates
has
experienced
a
dramatic
increase
these
years,
which
gives
rise
to
the
difficulties
in
job-hunting.
Since
the
number
of
graduates
is
enormous in proportion to that of positions, it is definitely true that students may have a
hard time hunting their jobs.
Reasons
:
In
my
opinion,
this
kind
of
job-hunting
pressure
is
mainly
caused
by
reasons
as
follows.
Firstly, colleges and universities are enrolling more and more students
year by year.
And the growth of the students' number has surpassed that of the need of the society.
Secondly, some university students
are not
qualified for
good
and challenging jobs.
After
entering
the
university,
they
don't
study
as
hard
as
they
did
in
high
schools.
They
begin to sleep during the class or even be absent for classes. After four years of university
life, they haven't gained the adequate knowledge those fairly good jobs or certain positions
require.
A lot of college graduates have little practical experience. They spend most of their
time
at
school
studying
academic
subjects
and
lack
relevant
job
training.
Obviously,
the
pattern of attaching importance to theories has weakened their ability to practice.
A student has a good method to achieve high scores, it
don’t equal that the students
can apply the theories to practical problems yet.
The
bad
quality
of
our
education
causes
that
college
students
don't
have
enough
competition
ability
in
the
society.
Today,
our
higher
education
usually
pays
too
much
attention to the theory and basic knowledge and don't pay enough attention to the practical
technique ability. We often can find a student who doesn't have a practical ability after 4
years studying in the college or university. Certainly it is difficult for such a student to find
a job.
