Graduates’ Pressure in Finding Jobs

Nowadays, more and more university graduates complain that graduation does not equate to employment. They experience great difficulties finding satisfactory jobs. What is the cause of this phenomenon

In my opinion, there are four causes:

First, graduates lack experience. They spend most of their time at school studying academic subjects and lack relevant job training. Only after graduation do they realize it’s hard to find jobs.

Second, competition among graduates grows more bitter and more bitter and bitter. The supply of university graduates exceeds social demand. This results in a decreased chance for any individual graduate to find a job.

Third, some students don’t study hard. Some of them skip classes just because they have no interest in certain subjects. Some play computer games or pursue other interests. Some sleep in class or in the library. Then they leave the sheltered environment of the university campus, to discover they don’t have adequate knowledge to apply for many positions, which makes them feel lost and frustrated.

Finally, some graduates are conceited. They lack experience but ask for a high salary, which is impractical.

So, university students should try their best to change this situation. When they are in school, they should make the most of their time and put their heart into their studies. They can hold part-time jobs in their spare time to accumulate relevant work experience. They should take part in some social activities and provide themselves with special training, if possible. When they graduate and apply for jobs, they should attach more importance to accumulating experience than to their starting salary.

On University Students’ Pressure in Finding Jobs

About a decade ago, university students could find satisfactory and enviable jobs after their graduation. But now, things are different. Today's university students usually have much pressure in finding fairly good jobs. They always say disappointedly that graduation means joblessness. Why nowadays university students have so much pressure in finding jobs?

In my opinion, this kind of pressure is mainly caused by three reasons.

Firstly, the government is enrolling more and more university students year by year. And the growth of the students' number has surpassed that of the need of the society. So, when so many students graduate at a time, the chance of finding jobs becomes tiny.

Secondly, today's university students, most of them are the "only-child", who are more mentally frail. Since they are indulged greatly at home and haven't been trained to do things on their own, once it is their turn to go out of the campus and find jobs by themselves and decide what kind of jobs to choose, they feel bewildered and don't know what to do. If their first try fails, they will be frustrated and think that it is really hard to find jobs.

Thirdly, some university students are not qualified for good and challenging jobs. After entering the university, they don't study as hard as they did in high schools. They begin to sleep during the class or even be absent for classes. Some are addicted to computer games or Jin Yong's novels, or step into the two-person-world too early. Because these things have taken up so much of their time and energy, their study is neglected. After four years of university life, they haven't gained the knowledge those fairly good jobs or certain positions require.

目前，越来越多的大学生抱怨说毕业和就业并不是一回事了。为了找一份满意的工作，他们经历了重重困难，而出现这种现象的原因又是什么呢?

以我看，原因有四：

首先，毕业生缺乏工作经验。他们在学校的大部分时间都在学习功课，缺乏相关的工作培训。可在他们大学毕业之后，却又发现他们很难找到工作。

其次，毕业生的求职竞争越来越激烈。大学毕业生的供应大于社会的需求，其结果就直接导致了每个毕业生的就业机会的大大减少。

再次，有些学生学习不努力。他们只是因为对某些科目不感兴趣，就旷课不上。有的玩计算机游戏，或者别的有意思的事情，还有的在上课时或在图 书馆睡觉。 然而，当他们离开这个与外界隔绝的大学校园环境之后，他们才发现他们没有足够的知识来申请许多职位，因此他们感到非常的失落与沮丧。

最后，就是一些毕业生非常的自负。他们缺乏工作经验，但却要求很高的工资，这个就有点不太现实了。

因此，大学生应该尽力来改变这种现状，在校时，应该用心多读点书，闲余时间可以做个兼职工作，以提高自己的工作经验;参加社会活动，如果有条件的话，还可以接受专业培训;毕业后找工作时，他们应该要重视工作经验的积累，而不是他们工作起薪的高低。

关于大学生的就业压力

大约在十年前，大学生毕业后就可以找到令自己满意和令别人羡慕的工作。然而，时至当今，情况发生的翻天覆地的变化。如果想找到一份不错的工作，今天的大学毕业生却要常常面对着极大的就业压力。因此，他 们总是很失望地说毕业意味着失业。为什么现在的大学生有如此大的就业压力呢?

我认为，就业压力的产生是以下三个原因所导致。

其一，政府每年都在扩招大学生，学生人数的增加远远超过了社会的需求。因此，每一次都有那么多的大学生毕业，他们找到工作的机会也就大大渺小了。

其二，今天的大学生绝大部分都是独生子女，而独生子女在思想意志上又比较脆弱，他们在家受到娇生惯养，也没有接受过要自己去做事情的那种训练素养，而一旦他们离开校园自己去找工作的话，他们就感到非常迷惑，不知道该做什么。如果他们第一次尝试失败的话，他们就会有挫败感，认为找工作确实很难。

其三，一些大学生还不合格，并不胜任那些很具挑战性的好工作。有些大学生考上大学后，学习就没有上高中时那么努力了。上课睡觉，甚者旷课;沉迷于计算机游戏，或者金庸小说;有的甚至过早地踏入二人世界的生活中。这些都需花费很多的时间和精力，因此他们的学习也就被忽视了;大学四年之后，他们并没有掌握到那些好工作或某一职位的知识能力要求。
