Imbalance between supply and demand: In recent years, the number of college graduates has increased sharply, but the demand for employment in enterprises has not increased accordingly, resulting in imbalance between supply and demand and increasingly severe employment situation.
Academic expansion: With the improvement of education level, more and more people choose to receive higher education, which also leads to the problem of difficult employment for college students. Because the number of highly educated people has increased and the competition has become more intense, many jobs that were originally junior high school or high school degrees have become "battlefields" for college students.
Lack of skills: Although many college students have received theoretical knowledge training at school, they lack practical experience, which makes many enterprises prefer candidates with practical experience when recruiting college students.
Job-hunting concept: Some college students are not clear about their own positioning and career planning, have no correct concept of employment, blindly pursue high salaries and big cities, but often ignore their professional background and personal interests and are unwilling to accept grass-roots posts.
Economic situation: In recent years, China's economic growth has slowed down, some traditional industries have encountered bottlenecks, and employment opportunities have decreased accordingly, which has also increased the difficulty of college students' employment.
These are the main reasons that make it more and more difficult for college students to find jobs. In order to cope with this problem, college students need to actively respond and enhance their competitiveness, such as learning a skill well, accepting internship experience and expanding their social circle. At the same time, the government and society should also strengthen their support and concern for college students' employment, establish more employment opportunities and entrepreneurial support platforms, and provide more employment choices and development opportunities for college students.
The following are some concrete examples that make it difficult for college students to find jobs:
The supply of talents exceeds demand.
With the popularization of higher education, more and more college students enter the job market after graduation, but the growth rate of employment opportunities has not kept up. Therefore, the oversupply in the job market makes it more and more difficult for college students to find jobs.
Employers have high requirements.
With the development of social economy, employers have higher and higher requirements for recruitment. Many enterprises will indicate in their recruitment conditions that they must have many years of work experience or senior titles, which is a huge problem for newly graduated college students.
Low job matching degree
With the development of society, many enterprises need high-skilled, high-quality and demanding positions, while college students lack practical experience and skills when they graduate, which leads to a low degree of job matching for recent college students by many employers, which does not meet the needs of the company.
Salary is not high
In the current job market, the wages paid by many enterprises to college students are very low, even lower than those of some skilled workers. Therefore, college students will have higher requirements when looking for a job after graduation, which will also increase the difficulty of finding a job.
Structural problems in the job market
At present, there are structural problems in the job market, such as the shrinkage of some traditional industries and the rise of new industries, which also leads to the imbalance of the job market, thus increasing the difficulty of college students' employment.
The above are some examples of college students' employment difficulties. It should be noted that these problems do not exist alone, but interact with each other, which increases the difficulty of college students' employment.
For college students with employment difficulties, the following measures can be taken to improve their employment competitiveness:
Learn more and improve your own quality: During college, you can learn more professional knowledge and skills, actively participate in various practical activities and competitions, improve your professional quality and practical ability, and increase your competitiveness in the job market.
Practice more: During college, you can use summer vacation and winter vacation to practice, feel the operation and management mode of the enterprise, learn more practical experience, and improve your comprehensive quality and employment competitiveness.
Plan your career path in advance: College students should plan their career path in advance, make clear their career goals and directions, and carry out targeted study and practical actions to enhance their professional competitiveness.
Participate in social activities: College students can participate in various social activities and volunteer activities, expand their social circle, make more friends, actively display their talents and abilities, and lay a solid foundation for their employment development.
Enhance self-confidence and adaptability: College students should enhance their self-confidence and adaptability, maintain a positive attitude and confidence in the face of employment problems, and constantly improve their own quality and ability to meet the challenges of the job market.
Pay attention to industry trends and market demand: college students should pay attention to industry trends and market demand, understand market changes and enterprises' demand for talents, adjust their learning direction and career planning in time, and better adapt to changes in the job market.
