To tell the truth, the prospect is good, but the road is tortuous! Psychology has just developed in China, and there is still a long way to go! If you want to be rich or expensive, I suggest not to choose this direction! If it is a personal hobby and pursuit, you should be prepared to be less popular when you are young! This tastes a bit like Chinese medicine. The older you get, the more valuable you are! Ha ha!

Six employment directions of psychology major

With the development of society and the sharp increase of social pressure, the psychological counseling industry has encountered the spring of development, and psychology has gradually shifted from theoretical research to practical application. In foreign countries, the income level of psychological professionals has always been in the forefront. However, in China, the situation is not so optimistic, and the employment scope of psychology graduate students has been relatively narrow.

First, colleges and universities, which is the main destination of psychology graduate students after graduation. In recent years, colleges and universities have paid more and more attention to students' mental health, and have set up public courses in psychology, with master of psychology as the teacher of public courses in psychology. This undoubtedly expanded the employment of psychology graduate students. One of the best employment directions for Master of Psychology is to enter the Department of Psychology and the Department of Education and become a psychology teacher.

Second, civil servants. Generally, the public security system and education administrative departments recruit psychology graduate students as civil servants: public security bureau, reeducation-through-labor center, prison, border inspection station, etc. Are all possible places.

Third, enterprises. The enterprises that psychology graduate students go to are mainly headhunting (talent agency) talent evaluation institutions, enterprise consulting and human resource management, and planning and design companies. Postgraduates in psychology are different from students majoring in human resource management. Students majoring in psychology advocate humanized management, which is complementary to students majoring in human resource management.

Fourth, primary and secondary schools. Originally, undergraduate students were generally recruited, and psychological counselors in colleges and universities were saturated. Some graduate students began to consider entering primary and secondary schools to engage in psychological education.

Fifth, psychological counseling workers. Judging from the current situation in China, the domestic industry is not a very profitable profession. If you want to get the salary of foreign counterparts, you need to make further efforts to open up the market and improve your consulting level. But looking ahead, it's still good.

Sixth, hospitals and clinics. Students who study clinical psychology and medical psychology can go to hospitals or psychological clinics to engage in psychological counseling and treatment. However, in view of the current demand for psychologists in China and the need for a medical license to go to a hospital, it is more difficult.
