Analysis on Employment Situation of Dance Major

Based on teaching practice, this paper analyzes the employment status of students majoring in dance, and on this basis, through literature and practical research, analyzes the employment characteristics of students majoring in dance, and puts forward relevant strategies to improve the employment quality of students majoring in dance from three aspects: social macro, schools and students themselves.

Keywords:: dance professional employment situation analysis

With the rapid development of China's higher education, the scale of running a dance major is constantly expanding. With the expansion of enrollment, more and more dance graduates are coming, and they are all facing heavy employment pressure. How to deal with this series of problems is unavoidable for society, schools and dance majors themselves. Based on the actual situation of our college, this paper analyzes the employment situation of dance major.

First, the employment status of students majoring in dance

From the actual situation of our college, according to the whereabouts of students majoring in dance performance, dance science, dance choreography and art education after graduation, they can be mainly divided into the following categories:

First, join literary and art groups. Students majoring in performance usually have good physical fitness and professional ability, good external image and can engage in related performance work. Before the enrollment expansion of our college, the discipline construction and training objectives were not perfect, and a large proportion of single-subject graduates were engaged in this kind of work.

Second, engage in education. This kind of students are usually students with good theoretical results in dance major. Educational posts require relatively high cultural quality of students, but relatively low external image of students. However, because students must have a teacher qualification certificate when choosing an education industry, it has increased the difficulty for students to engage in teaching to some extent.

Third, the social demand of the director major is less than that of other majors, and there is usually a phenomenon of large-scale or professional career change.

Fourth, the major of art education is a new major with a large employment space, which mainly aims at the requirements of art education teachers in primary and secondary schools. This major has a wide range of radiation, but it does not require sophisticated professional skills.

Fifth, continue to study. Due to the restriction of employment, some dance majors with good family conditions will choose to take postgraduate entrance examination or continue their studies through other channels after graduation, which is mainly a requirement for students' cultural quality. However, due to the strict requirements for obtaining a master's degree in China, students choose to continue their studies.

Sixth, start your own business. Due to the limitation of dance major, there are not many students who choose to start their own businesses. However, with the improvement of national cultural level and appreciation level, as well as the popularization of aesthetic education in primary and secondary schools, it will provide more opportunities and conditions for dance majors to start their own businesses. It is expected that the number of self-employed students in our college will increase greatly in a few years.

Seventh, turn to other industries. Some dance majors will choose to change careers after graduation. These people will do some jobs in other industries through various relationships, such as joining the army, entering institutions, doing some simple paperwork in enterprises or taking postgraduate exams in other majors.

Second, analysis of employment characteristics of dance major

Based on the actual work, this paper conducts a sample questionnaire survey on the undergraduates majoring in dance in our college, and analyzes and studies the employment characteristics of the current students majoring in dance in combination with literature research.

(1) Weakening of academic qualifications and prominent gender differences.

Because dance majors are mostly applied majors, the characteristics of talent selection are not consistent with the characteristics of "high academic qualifications, high employment rate, low academic qualifications and low employment rate" of literature, history and science and engineering majors. Employers mainly pay attention to graduates' professional skills and practical operation ability in employing standards. In some majors, the employment rate of junior college students is even higher than that of undergraduates, which is not only different from students' employment expectations, but also related to the rich internship and practical experience of dance graduates. Generally speaking, there is little difference in the employment rate between undergraduate graduates and junior college graduates.

The survey shows that the number of female graduates is far greater than that of male graduates. However, from the signing rate, it is difficult for female graduates to find jobs, and it is difficult for male graduates to find jobs. In addition, according to other related studies, under the same conditions, the employment opportunities of female graduates are only 83.2% of those of male graduates, and the initial employment rate of female graduates is 9.5% lower than that of male graduates. The statistical results show that in the process of employment of dance graduates, the employment space and employment rate of male graduates are relatively better than that of female graduates. The employment of female students is characterized by low employment rate and lower employment quality than that of male students.

(B) rational employment thinking, clear employment goals.

According to the investigation on the career ideal, employment preparation and employment area choice of dance graduates, the results show that more than 40% of undergraduate graduates have achieved their goals in their junior year, that is, they hope to continue their studies through postgraduate entrance examination and improve their employment chips and professional quality; More than 90% graduates have had more formal internship experience, and most people say that internship experience is helpful to their current work; In the past, students usually didn't think about these problems until their junior year. In the eyes of most students, entering the university is not the end, their life development has just begun, showing a strong sense of self-planning. At the same time, college students' career development goals are clear, showing a more pragmatic tendency. Many graduates began to practice in TV stations, social art training institutions, print media or advertising planning companies and other media-related industries in their freshman and sophomore years. In the senior year, with rich practical experience and professional skills, I can get started quickly.

(3) The degree of specialty matching is low, and the employment choices are diversified.

From the survey, we noticed that most graduates are more concerned about whether employment can be achieved smoothly, whether employment can promote the development of their personality and the realization of their own values, and most graduates have lower and lower requirements for professional counterparts in employment and job selection. When asked about the primary factors in determining the work unit, more than 50% of the graduates surveyed chose whether it was conducive to personal development and promotion; More than 40% people choose whether they can provide good wages and benefits; Less than 20% of graduates emphasize that majors must match when choosing a job. Most respondents believe that as long as the major is related to employment, it doesn't matter if the major is right, even if it can be employed. This shows that most graduates' attitude towards major mismatch is rational and pragmatic.

Third, the means to improve the employment rate of students majoring in dance

Under the increasingly severe employment situation, how to improve the employment rate of students and let more students find jobs is a problem that our school and teachers must think about. The following measures are for reference only.

(A) the macro level: to provide a solid backing for students' employment.

From a macro point of view, the government and society should attach importance to the employment of art and dance graduates and take certain measures, mainly from the following two aspects.

On the one hand, formulate relevant employment policies to protect the interests of disadvantaged students. According to China's current national conditions, the legislature should strengthen the standardization of related issues or make special legislation on graduate employment in view of the outstanding problems in the labor market, such as cooperating with the legislature to strengthen the legislative work on graduate employment. China's existing employment policies and legislation are relatively comprehensive in content, but if these norms or policies are analyzed in the context of economic globalization, they need to be further improved.

According to the existing laws, regulations and policies, combined with the blind spots and misunderstandings of existing laws and regulations in employment work, we should check and fill the gaps, and cooperate with relevant legislative bodies to formulate a more operational employment bill. So as to better solve the problem of employment difficulties for vulnerable groups among dance graduates, and help and support dance majors to find jobs smoothly.

On the other hand, develop cultural and creative industries and provide a broad employment platform. At present, the related industries of the tertiary industry have become the main way to attract college graduates, and the cultural and creative industries represented by business services, leisure and entertainment software industry, animation industry, film and television broadcasting industry, culture and art industry, media industry, R&D industry and design industry are the best places for dance graduates to find jobs. It is necessary to further develop the ability of cultural and creative industries to absorb labor. The government can provide a good platform for the employment of dance students by encouraging the development of cultural and creative industries.

(2) School level: adjust the focus of work to ensure students' employment.

From the school's point of view, we should start from all aspects to ensure students' employment.

First of all, schools should correctly treat students' employment adaptability. At present, there are still some misunderstandings about the employment adaptability of dance major, and the following adjustments should be made. First, pay equal attention to enrollment and employment. On the premise of enrollment expansion, the key work of the school should not only make plans and arrange work around enrollment, but also bring the employment problem of students into the overall layout; The second is to strengthen the employment guidance for dance majors, usually by strengthening the guidance of employment courses and guidance before graduation; Thirdly, it is one of the work goals to cultivate the employment adaptability of dance majors, and to provide a training model combining school education with social practice to promote students' social adaptability. Through the change of these concepts, the cultivation of employment adaptability of dance majors can achieve ideal results.

Secondly, the teaching reform should be based on employment adaptation. At present, the teaching reform in colleges and universities has three basic characteristics: first, it emphasizes that the curriculum and teaching content should reflect the frontier of subject development as much as possible and attach importance to basic subjects; Secondly, it emphasizes the cultivation of students' practical ability, especially their innovative spirit and creativity. Third, attach importance to the use of modern teaching methods and emphasize the improvement of teaching efficiency.

This approach ignores the cultivation of practical skills and interpersonal skills that are very important for employment adaptability. Therefore, schools should attach importance to cultivating the employment adaptability of dance majors from the educational goal. When arranging dance courses and evaluating teaching quality, we should also pay attention to the combination of generalists and professionals, the combination of basic dance theory and dance practice, and pay attention to cultivating the learning ability and social ability of dance majors. In addition, they should also give full consideration to the employment needs of future graduates in the curriculum and professional settings.

In addition, social practice should be strengthened in the teaching plan. The lack of opportunities for social practice during school is almost the unanimous opinion of many students. In order to strengthen social practice in schools, the following measures are suggested: first, strengthen social practice in teaching plans and arrange certain credits to be included in the assessment indicators for students; Secondly, the content of social practice should be properly arranged in students' homework, and some social practice activities should be organized during the holidays. Third, strengthen the organization and guidance of internship, win the support of internship units, and improve the effectiveness of internship.

(3) Students' point of view: strengthen the cultivation of their own quality.

From the students themselves, we should also consider and plan the employment problem as soon as possible.

On the one hand, establish a correct concept of employment and cultivate the ability to start their own businesses. Graduates should have a clear development direction, correct mentality, correctly understand themselves and actively face employment. There are fewer dance majors. Therefore, it is more necessary to obey social needs, adjust employment expectations, and establish the idea of "employment first and then choosing a job". Graduates should comprehensively and objectively locate their own life value, not simply pursue vested interests, but also have a sense of social responsibility and combine their own development with social needs. Dance students should not only learn basic theories and professional knowledge, but also participate in more internships and practical activities to improve their comprehensive quality.

On the other hand, use employment guidance institutions for career planning. For undergraduates, in the freshman and sophomore stages, with the help of the school, they can understand their professional characteristics and discover their interests and career tendencies; In the third and fourth year, you can gradually understand your social practice, job-hunting skills and professional ethics, determine your career goals, and cultivate your professional skills in a targeted manner.

In short, all walks of life, including students themselves, should be responsible and considerate for the sustainable development of dance major. In this case. Only by strengthening the communication between dance educators, breaking the original closed state and controlling the talent market as much as possible; Learn from each other's strengths in subject setting and professional theory; Correct students' incorrect ideological understanding and employment view on educating people. Only in this way can we fundamentally solve the employment problem of dance major.

Reflections on "the employment situation of college students"

Employment is a problem that everyone and families have to face, and it is the foundation of people's livelihood. With the expansion of colleges and universities, the change of social and economic conditions and the continuous upgrading of industrial structure, the employment problem of college students in China has become increasingly prominent. Aiming at the information asymmetry between college students and jobs, this paper first introduces the function and source of graduates' employment information; Then, it analyzes the reasons for the great employment pressure of graduates; Finally, this paper puts forward measures and ways to alleviate the employment pressure of college students from four aspects: country, society, schools and individuals.

Keywords college students' employment; Channels; measure

I. Importance of employment information

From the research on educational methods and solving employment problems at home and abroad, it can be seen that most of the research focuses on the cultivation of ability in the direction of higher education, while ignoring the cultivation of professional skills, social adaptability and communicative competence. This practice usually takes a long time for students who have just left campus to adapt to the complex and changeable society. Therefore, in order to avoid this situation, university education and social needs should be combined. To do this, timely and effective employment information is particularly important.

First of all, colleges and universities can establish a good cooperative relationship with enterprises, and understand what kind of talents the society needs through the employment information provided by enterprises, so as to flexibly adjust the education model. In this way, the society can effectively and quickly absorb the talents exported by colleges and universities. [1] Zhu Jiguang (2009) suggested that schools and enterprises should strengthen contact and cultivate college students' employability.

First, strengthen school-enterprise cooperation, so that colleges and universities can understand the types of talents needed by employers and the requirements for graduates' employability;

Second, strengthen exchanges and communication with students, so that college students can understand the needs of employers as soon as possible; Employers should provide more internships and internship opportunities for college students. In addition, college students themselves should be clear about their future development direction, understand the social development trend and pay attention to the current employment trend. According to the employment requirements of enterprises, find their own shortcomings, so as to update their knowledge in time and make up for their own shortcomings.

At present, there are several ways for college students to obtain employment information: 1, campus job fair. Campus job fairs are mainly small and medium-sized enterprises, many of which are private enterprises. 2. Employment information released by the school campus network. The employment information on campus network is of great reference value. 3. Social talent recruitment fair. Social talent recruitment club involves many positions and has extensive information, which is an ideal channel to obtain effective information of various positions. 4. Newspapers or news media. The information obtained in this way is generally cumbersome and lacks pertinence. 5. Information provided by relatives, friends and parents.

Second, the root causes of employment difficulties for college students

Since the reform and opening up, China's education has achieved excellent results, but the educational concept has not been fundamentally reversed. In recent years, major universities have expanded their enrollment year after year, and the employment market for graduates has gradually changed from a buyer's market to a seller's market. In addition, due to the increasingly fierce competition, enterprises have higher and higher requirements for high quality, high ability and high level.

The impact of relevant national policies and reforms

Although China has changed from a planned economy to a market economy, the household registration system, social security system and personnel management system are still not perfect. Due to the dislocation of economic development speed and social system reform, it also brings difficulties to college students' employment. For example, because big cities have relatively developed economies, large development space and good entrepreneurial environment, many college students focus on those relatively developed cities after graduation. However, many college students can't apply for loan funds to start their own businesses because of the hukou problem, and their dreams are shattered. In addition, many enterprises, especially private enterprises, can't provide college students with a good guarantee of five insurances and one fund like state-owned enterprises, which leads to many graduates unwilling to work in private enterprises or small enterprises, resulting in a mismatch between supply and demand.

(B) the impact of college enrollment expansion and education model

In recent years, major universities have continuously expanded the enrollment scale, resulting in a serious imbalance in the graduate employment market. The traditional view that college students are treasures has withdrawn from the historical stage, but it has become an indisputable fact that college students are difficult to find jobs. Since 2000, the number of college graduates in China has increased year by year, and its growth rate is far from the jobs that society can provide.

With the increase of college enrollment, the number of graduates is also increasing. According to the growth rate of enrollment and graduates, it can be seen that the annual growth rate is positive, and the enrollment and graduates of colleges and universities both exceeded 7 million in 20 13. This is far beyond the scope of jobs that society can provide.

In addition, the conventional education mechanism in some colleges and universities is also a factor that causes college students' employment difficulties. In the era of rapid updating of knowledge, colleges and universities should flexibly change the education mode according to the employment situation and cultivate comprehensive talents with new knowledge and new skills. In short, [3] colleges and universities, as producers of talents, should pay attention to cultivating students' learning ability. The economic laws of the new century have shown that the future workplace competition will no longer be the competition of knowledge and professional skills, but the competition of learning ability.

(3) Enterprises are demanding and blindly pursue high education and diplomas.

With the rapid increase of the number of graduates year by year, enterprises have mastered the initiative and right to speak in the graduate employment market. In the recruitment process, they often take advantage of the characteristics of oversupply in the graduate market to raise the employment standard, and disdain the resumes of ordinary undergraduate colleges and junior colleges. Under the slogan of "absorbing high-level talents", they focus on a few famous universities and ignore the graduates of other ordinary universities. This phenomenon often makes graduates of ordinary colleges feel inferior, so they are unwilling to compete with graduates of famous universities for the same job.

(D) College students' employment concept is backward, their ability is insufficient, and their job-seeking methods are unreasonable.

Employment concept has a great influence on college students' employment choice, and reasonable employment values are the key for college students to make correct choices. On the one hand, newly graduated college students often expect too much of themselves and are bent on pursuing a well-paid, well-paid and environmentally friendly workplace. At the same time, working in economically underdeveloped areas and grass-roots departments is skeptical, which leads to the imbalance of supply and demand structure. Therefore, the status quo of "no one is employed and some are unemployed" often appears in society. On the other hand, some students indulge themselves because of their poor self-restraint ability after entering the university.

After four years in college, my ability has not been improved. In addition, the correct job search method is also the key to get the ideal job. As the saying goes, all roads lead to Rome, and there is often more than one road to success, and the way to apply for a job is not absolute. Generally speaking, job hunting methods mainly include job fairs, online job hunting and telephone job hunting. However, different job nature requires different job hunting methods, and different job hunting methods have different ways and means. [2]

Third, ways to ease the employment of college students

Facing the asymmetry between the number of graduates and jobs, it is urgent to solve the current employment problem of graduates. In order to alleviate the current situation of college students' employment difficulties and find a solution as soon as possible, the state, society, schools and college students should take active actions and work together to finally establish an employment mechanism based on "market demand-oriented, government regulation as a supplement, school recommendation as an intermediary, and two-way choice between students and employers".

1, national aspect

First of all, the state should provide a good employment environment for college students. The government should stick to the active employment policy for college students. For college students who actively respond to the "three supports and one support" and the western plan, the government should provide good social security and encourage them to hone themselves in poor and remote areas.

Second, establish a standardized human resources market. The government should strengthen the supervision of the human resources market to ensure that the recruitment process is open, fair and just. Third, improve and perfect the policy of self-employment and self-employment. The state should encourage college students to start businesses and provide them with a good platform for starting businesses. For example, in order to realize the transformation of college students from employment competitors to employment pioneers, the state can provide them with loan funds and legal aid by establishing college students' entrepreneurial bases.

This practice enables entrepreneurs not only to solve their own employment problems, but also to create more employment opportunities. Fourth, improve the education system and adjust the training structure. The state should formulate a reasonable enrollment plan and perfect teaching mode according to social needs, and timely convey the corresponding indicators and policies to colleges and universities.

2. Social aspects

The change of socio-economic conditions has a great impact on the employment of college students, and the impact of current socio-economic conditions on employment has become an urgent theoretical and practical problem. With the reform of China's economic system, the structure of the three major industries has changed, and the employment potential that the last three industries can absorb is also changing year by year. Therefore, coordinating the labor allocation among the three industries has become an important factor to ease the employment of college students.

The total number of employees is increasing every year, but the number of employees in the primary industry is decreasing, while the number of employees in the secondary and tertiary industries is increasing year by year, which shows that jobs are shifting from the primary industry to the secondary and tertiary industries. As can be seen from Figure 2, the primary industry has dropped from 44.8% in 2005 to 33.6% in 20 12, a decrease of about 1 1 percentage point; The secondary industry rose from 23.8% in 2005 to 30.3% in 20 12, an increase of about 7 percentage points, and it is the fastest growing industry. The tertiary industry rose from 3 1.4% in 2005 to 36. 1% in 20 12, an increase of 5 percentage points, and exceeded the proportion of the primary industry for the first time in 20 1 1 year.

3. Institutions of higher learning

Due to the lack of social experience and correct orientation, students who have just stepped out of campus and entered the society often hit a wall everywhere in the process of job hunting. Therefore, colleges and universities, as the cultivators and exporters of talents, should guide college students to establish a correct outlook on employment and help them make appropriate career plans. First of all, career planning should be regarded as a compulsory course in universities, so that all students can have a brand-new understanding of the career planning course and understand the significance and importance of offering this course for their future employment.

In addition, colleges and universities should adopt flexible teaching methods so that students can really participate in the course. In class, teachers can use case analysis and some successful cases to stimulate students' learning motivation. In addition, for students with different backgrounds and experiences, colleges and universities can choose targeted teaching methods, which can not only improve students' learning efficiency, but also make students interested in the subject. On the other hand, if all colleges and universities adopt the same teaching mode, it is easy for students to have resistance, and the result can only be counterproductive.

Finally, students should learn how to adjust their career plans in the face of major changes in social environment and national policies. Career planning is not static, everything is changing, and no method or skill is always effective. Therefore, colleges and universities should provide students with scientific and effective guidance according to their own characteristics, so that they can have a dynamic grasp of career planning. In fact, in order to let students know more about career planning, career planning can be divided into internal career planning and external career planning, and there are certain differences and connections between them.

Internal and external career planning has its own characteristics, scope and methods. But they are interrelated and complementary. Therefore, when guiding students to make their own career planning, colleges and universities should let them know the knowledge of career planning at home and abroad so as to use career planning flexibly.

4. College students.

Faced with fierce competition and severe employment pressure, college students need to make plans for their future in advance. First of all, we should enhance our sense of independence and innovation. Nowadays, many college students are very dependent, and they have to ask their parents or friends about everything, lacking their own opinions. But for the students who leave school, it is a period of daring to fight, dare to fight and dare to fight. They should use their thoughts and wisdom to pursue their dreams and do what they want to do. As a new generation of young people, they also need to be innovative. Innovative consciousness can enhance people's internal motivation. Innovation essentially summarizes a new talent standard, which contains an important message: society needs energetic people, people with pioneering spirit, people with new ideological and moral qualities and modern scientific and cultural qualities.

It can stimulate people's initiative, enthusiasm and creativity, thus greatly enriching and expanding people's own connotation. Jiang Zemin once said, "Innovation is the soul of a nation and an inexhaustible motive force for a country's prosperity." Second, we should be competitive. Competition is a kind of ability, which can make people feel the existence of life and make people's life full and meaningful. If a person lacks a sense of competition, it means that he has no motivation to struggle and progress, so he can't escape the fate of mediocrity and elimination after all.

Therefore, college students in the new era should be brave and be good at competition. Third, we should establish correct values. Values play a guiding role in motivation, and the motivation of people's behavior is also dominated and restricted by values, which have an important impact on motivation patterns. [5] Values are the cornerstone of life and the premise of success. Having the right values means that a person can make the right choice on the right and wrong issues, which means that a person with morality, honesty and responsibility is a trustworthy and trustworthy person. As a qualified college graduate, having correct values is not only the basis of his successful employment, but also the stepping stone to his life.
