With the development of China's economy, the demand characteristics of the recruitment market have also changed, and the idea of education first has faded, and experience and ability have become the first choice for many enterprises to recruit people. Many enterprises are more and more pragmatic in recruiting talents, and will not give priority to job seekers because of their overseas background. The selection of talents is mainly based on suitable positions. Foreign students who used to be very popular came back from abroad with confidence, only to find that their job-hunting treatment was no different from that of domestic graduates. The difficulty of employment bothers them. Is studying abroad so worthless? Case 1 For Penny, the advice given by the career counselor is that the focus of the first job is to enter the industry. According to my personal interests and specialties, I will use my professional knowledge and foreign language advantages to apply for jobs in some foreign-funded companies or small and medium-sized trading companies. I will start with junior positions first, and then consider whether there are suitable job transfer opportunities after 2-3 years. It is naturally best to start a career in a mature enterprise, which will help her learn a more standardized and systematic workflow. And if the newly established company offers suitable positions, you can choose after careful consideration, and you can learn a lot of pioneering things with the growth of the company. The key is to start with the most basic things and seize every opportunity now. Case 2: Xiao Xu went to study in the UK after graduating from undergraduate course and returned to China after completing his master's degree. He hopes to find realistic job opportunities as soon as possible. At present, there is a great preference for experienced talents in China, which makes Xiao Xu have no obvious advantage in finding a job, and the highly educated background has not been transformed into a sharp weapon for job hunting. The career counselor suggested to Xiao Xu that he could try to work at the grass-roots level in the offices of large European financial institutions in China, and learn about other industries and occupations that he was interested in and met his own abilities. This job should be done not only at the stage of job hunting, but also at any stage of career development in the future. In the aspect of job hunting strategy, Xiao Xu should sort out and summarize his existing project experience, and highlight this point in his resume and interview. Xiao Xu has rich experience in cross-cultural work during his study abroad, but he lacks experience in domestic talent market and game rules, so he must consult his predecessors in his work. Don't think too much about salary for the time being. If the work goes well in the next few years, the salary will naturally increase. On the contrary, it is easy to lose your long-term career direction. The reason why some enterprises don't like returned overseas students is that some returned overseas students have too high a position for themselves, too high expectations for their positions and salaries, unstable mentality and easy job-hopping. Ms. Xu, a senior career consultant in Horton, suggested that international students should have a clear understanding and positioning of themselves. We should have a clear understanding of the competitive situation, have a correct attitude and lower the requirements appropriately. When applying for a job, you should lower yourself. Analyze whether your job hunting goal is in line with your actual ability. Especially for foreign students who have no work experience, don't set too high an initial job search goal. Don't pay too much attention to the promotion of administrative ranks or high income, but pay more attention to the accumulation of knowledge, technology or experience related to your goals, which is to lay the foundation for future profitability on a higher platform. Studying abroad should be included in personal career planning. Confirm whether you will become a useful returnee. Before studying abroad, you should make a career development plan that suits you, understand how much you have learned to improve yourself, and understand the market demand for talents. The attitude of some students is to study abroad first and then consider employment when they come back. This attitude of separating employment from studying abroad without considering the purpose of studying abroad will inevitably lead to employment difficulties. Because of the high investment in studying abroad, some people have higher expectations for their jobs and hope that their investment can be recovered as soon as possible. This is a kind of job seeker that recruiters don't like. In addition to mastering professional knowledge, we should also pay attention to more practice during our study abroad.
