Many undergraduates, vocational high school students and technical school students have more than 45% majors that are not right.

Since the first release of the employment report for college students in 2009, MyCOS Research Institute has released the annual employment report for college students in China every year. This survey says that "more than 30% of graduates' jobs do not match their majors", which is neither new nor novel. Anyone familiar with the employment situation of college students knows that majors and occupations are different, and majors in university studies are not completely consistent with personal employment. Graduates are all engaged in professional counterparts, which is neither in line with the reality of the job market nor with the law of college students' job selection.

Extended data:

All walks of life are full of "unintentional" people. Carly Fiorina, the world's first female CEO, studied medieval history and philosophy in college. Microsoft founder Bill Gates majored in law at Harvard University. Ma Yun, founder of Alibaba, graduated from the Foreign Languages Department of Hangzhou Normal University. They all put aside the concern that their majors are not right and their careers are not right, but this does not prevent them from achieving success.

In the same way, people kidnapped by their own professions can be seen everywhere in life. They are bent on achieving "professional counterpart", but they have to degenerate because of the constraints of reality. At the same time, they don't focus on the immediate things and can't enjoy the benefits and convenience brought by "professional counterpart". Practice has repeatedly proved that in the face of the severe employment situation, the status quo that the work does not conform to one's major is gradually accepted by college students, and the attention paid to the professional counterpart is far lower than the salary and welfare, personal development space, personal interest and other factors.
