As the saying goes, "365 lines, each line is the champion." However, with the continuous development of society, the social division of labor is becoming more and more detailed. Modern society, more than 365 lines. With the increase of industries, we have more choices, but on the other hand, it is easy to "cross the road". I don't know which industry to choose, and some people regret choosing the wrong profession (industry). So, how can we choose a career (industry) correctly? In fact, choosing a job does not mean that you choose a job when you go to the society to apply for a job. Instead, you should start planning your career when you are studying at school, and choose the target occupation you want to "attack" as the basis for the purpose of elective courses. The author believes that the following factors should be considered when choosing a job:

1, social demand. Does this mean that the professional society you want to choose is in great demand? If you choose a career without social needs, it will be difficult for you to find a job. For example, your chosen profession (industry) is Peking Opera, and the demand is small, so it is difficult for you to find a suitable unit.

2. Competitiveness. The so-called competitiveness refers to whether there are many people who choose this profession (industry) at the same time? If this profession (industry) has great social demand, but many people choose this profession (industry) at the same time, which is saturated, then you should also consider whether to choose another profession (industry).

3. Personal fitness. Does this mean that this profession (industry) is suitable for you? The occupation (industry) you want to choose is very good in all aspects, but because your personality or ability is not suitable for this occupation (industry) at all, then you should not choose this occupation (industry). For example, introverts should not be salesmen, extroverts should not be writers, and people with bad looks and bad voices can't be singers no matter how hard they try.

4. Development potential. This refers to the development potential of a profession (industry). If a profession (industry) is booming at present, with good treatment and welfare, but this is just a bubble phenomenon, and it is expected that it may be quiet in the near future, then you'd better not enter this profession (industry), especially one that requires a lot of money and time and high cost.

5. Environmental factors. Environmental factors refer to whether your personal environment can make you succeed in your chosen career (industry). For example, you want to learn from Jackie Chan and become a martial arts star, but can your environment make you realize this dream? Can you find a master who is outstanding in martial arts and really wants to teach you? Do your physical and psychological qualities meet the requirements of martial arts practitioners? For another example, if a senior leader in your unit appreciates you very much, then you should seize the opportunity and try to make a difference in your unit, because such an opportunity is rare.

6. Personal interests. Personal interest is a subjective factor. People often say "it is caused by interest", which means that when you are interested, you will be particularly happy when you do something that interests you. Indeed, a person who is interested in doing something will do much better than doing something he is not interested in. Therefore, many people will choose according to their own interests when choosing a course, and many experts will tell you that the key to choosing a course is to see whether you are interested, not whether it is popular. In fact, this is a very wrong behavior, because when we choose a profession (industry), the key is to look at the economic returns it will eventually bring us. If there is no conflict between interest and economic return, it is undoubtedly very wise to choose a career (industry) that interests you, but if you want to choose between interest and economic return, you should consider it clearly. In fact, many successful people have sacrificed their own interests to succeed, and some have become successful in their careers and considered their own interests. For example, many calligraphy lovers learn calligraphy in their later years.

Three elements of self-employment

How can demobilized cadres who choose their own jobs find suitable jobs quickly and accurately? Talk about some personal suggestions for your reference.

Know yourself and yourself. Know yourself and know yourself, and you will win every battle. Why can't some people find good jobs? There are two main reasons: one is that you don't know yourself, and the other is that you don't know the professional world. The understanding of self mainly includes three aspects: personality characteristics, hobbies and abilities. Personality traits are very important. A person's lack of ability can be improved through study and training. Extroverts are suitable for occupations that have extensive contact with the outside world, and they can choose lawyers, journalists, sales promotion, property management and catering management. Introverts are more suitable for planned, stable and infrequent occupations, and can choose theoretical research, accounting, data management and so on. In addition, some enterprises, such as insurance industry and automobile sales industry, like to find young, courageous, enterprising and innovative male job seekers; And some jobs, such as secretarial, administrative, health and so on, prefer women. In fact, personal interests should be considered when choosing a job. Hobbies can be persistent, hobbies can be devoted, hobbies can be innovative, and hobbies can do things well. The degree of liking or not liking the chosen occupation is an important parameter. Third, we should consider our own abilities and qualities. As the saying goes, do what you can and live within your means. If you only pay attention to whether the job is easy or not, I'm afraid this job will be short-lived for you. The understanding of the professional world is mainly to correctly understand the diversity of the professional world. With the reform, opening up and development of society, the social division of labor is becoming more and more detailed, and the types of occupations are increasing. We should not just surround ourselves in the "staple food" profession, but go deep into the ocean of the professional world to find, discover, choose and develop, so as to meet the needs of society and create a world.

Make good use of it. Most soldiers are unfamiliar with local business and do not understand business, but they also have their own unique advantages, such as rigorous and tenacious style, serious and responsible work, good at management and overall planning, and not afraid of difficulties and hardships. These are all necessary for economic managers, and they are also the capital for us to compete with others on the road of choosing jobs. As long as we make full use of these unique advantages, we will definitely choose a job successfully.

Dare to compete. Zhang Ruimin, president of Haier Group, put it well. If you don't want to be eaten by wolves, you must become a wolf first. If a person does not have a strong sense of competition (or survival), it is difficult to gain a foothold in society. Demobilized cadres should face the reality bravely, foster strengths and avoid weaknesses, express themselves and sell themselves. Only in this way can you choose your career successfully.

Help you define your career orientation.

According to Life Times, the talent professor at MIT pointed out that career orientation can be divided into the following five categories:

Technology: People who hold this professional orientation are often unwilling to engage in management work because of their own personality and hobbies, but are willing to develop in their own professional and technical fields. In the past, when China didn't train professional managers, top-notch technicians were often promoted to leadership positions, but they often didn't like the job themselves, and they wanted to continue studying their major.

Management type: These people have a strong desire to be managers, and experience tells them that they have the ability to reach senior leadership positions, so they set their career goals as management positions with considerable responsibilities. The ability to become a senior manager includes three aspects: 1, analytical ability: the ability to judge, analyze and solve problems under the condition of insufficient information or uncertain situation; 2. Interpersonal communication ability: the ability to influence, supervise, lead, cope with and control people at all levels; 3. Emotional control: I have the ability not to be depressed or discouraged in the face of key events, and I have the ability to take on major responsibilities without being overwhelmed by them.

Creative: This kind of people need to build their own things, or products or processes named after themselves, or their own companies, or private property that can reflect their personal achievements. They think that only these tangible things can show their talents.

Freedom and independence: some people like to be alone, rather than relying on each other as they do in big companies. Many people with this career orientation also have a fairly high technical career orientation. But it is different from the pure technical orientation. They don't want to develop in the organization, but prefer to be consultants, or work independently, or partner with others. Other free and independent people often become freelance writers or open small retail stores.

Security type: Some people are most concerned about the long-term stability and security of their jobs, and strive for a stable job, considerable income, superior welfare and pension system. At present, most people in our country choose this career orientation. Many times, this is determined by the level of social development, not entirely by one's own will. I believe that with the progress of society, people will no longer be forced to choose this type.

In order to better define your career orientation, you can try the following methods: First, take out a piece of paper, think carefully about the following questions, and record the main points on the paper:

1. When you were in middle school and college, what did you put the most energy into?

2. What is your first job after graduation and what do you hope to get from it?

What is your long-term goal when you start working? Have you changed? Why?

4. Did you change your job later? Why?

5. What do you like and dislike most about your work?

6. Have you ever refused a transfer or promotion? Why?

Then, according to the explanation of the above five types of career orientation, determine your dominant career orientation.

Like many classifications, there is no good or bad classification above. The reason why it is put forward is to help people know themselves better, rethink their career and set practical goals accordingly.
