The picture of the article comes from the movie "Du Lala's Promotion"

I was shocked by a report in Metropolitan Express on September 6: Kobayashi spent 1.8 million yuan studying abroad for six years, but only found a job with a basic salary of 2,111 yuan when he returned to China.

Xiao Lin is in a key middle school in Hangzhou, and his grades are average. It is no problem to get into an ordinary domestic university. But what parents consider is that it is better to study abroad than to go to an ordinary domestic university.

Xiao Lin's family is not rich, so his parents sold the house and raised 1.2 million yuan as Xiao Lin's study abroad fund. Kobayashi chose Australian finance, and it took him six years to get a postgraduate degree.

Xiao Lin calculated that the preparation for studying abroad in 1 years cost nearly RMB 1 million, and the study and living in Australia in 6 years cost about RMB 1.8 million.

"as soon as I return to China, I want to work and can't wait! I spent six years in Australia and spent six years on my parents' money, while my former classmates have been working for two or three years, and I am afraid I can't catch up with them. "

Kobayashi admits that when he returned to China at the end of 2116, he felt anxious when he first started looking for a job.

In an interview, the other party said rudely, "We received a lot of resumes with overseas study background. Besides, what are your advantages?"

In another scene, the interviewer frowned: "Don't you have any work experience at the age of 26?"

In another scene, the other party announced: "Our basic salary is not high, 2111 yuan, and the rest depends on performance commission."

The job of studying abroad with a basic salary of 1.8 million yuan and 2,111 yuan can't help but make people sigh. Is it really so difficult to get a job now?

My friend Miss A left her job in June, and she hasn't found a job for three months now, forcing her to move from Guangzhou to Shenzhen, where she will go for an interview the next day.

In the past three months, she said that she was either in an interview or on her way to an interview. Every day, the phone rang with HR invited for an interview, piles of resumes, confident conversations with HR again and again, and answering similar questions over and over again ...

The life of office workers is to be woken up by an alarm clock every day, wash and eat breakfast in a hurry, squeeze into the subway, walk into the reinforced concrete cubicle, and quickly tap on the keyboard to start.

and miss a's life is that she is awakened by the anxiety of "not finding a job" every day. Even if she is sleepy again, as long as she thinks about the problem of work and the balance of her bank card, she jumps out of bed like an electric shock.

The first thing after breakfast is to turn on the computer and browse the recruitment information. As long as it is relevant, I start to vote, and I vote for dozens of letters every day. Sometimes the update of the recruitment information can't keep up with her delivery speed.

She spends every day in the cycle of anxiety-self-doubt-self-motivation-cheer up-anxiety.

She sent me WeChat several times, and I really feel that I can't find a job. I deeply feel her inner powerlessness and despair. If I were you, I would have been careful.

Miss A is not bad. Her executive ability and pressure resistance have crushed many peers, and she can also make a good PPT.

when she left her former company, the supervisor offered her a salary increase and kept her for many times. On the second day after leaving the company, Party A extended an olive branch to her.

After interviewing so many companies, she also got some job opportunities, but she didn't find one that met her heart. Either she didn't like the job content, the salary was too low, or the company atmosphere was poor.

She has always disdained to enter through the back door, and even began to fantasize that if a related person suddenly appeared in her family, she would be introduced to a suitable job, even if the salary was not high, and she could do it safely.

I once asked Miss A if your requirements were too high.

She said that her requirements are four points:

1, room for development

2, good atmosphere

3, advertising, media, e-commerce industry

4, weekend

Since she resigned, she should always have some requirements for a new job. If she jumps out of one pit and then jumps into another, there is no need to resign.

Miss A has one year's working experience, but it is still difficult to find a suitable job. It is not difficult to understand that Kobayashi is not competitive in the tide of job hunting except for a diploma.

I always think that finding a job is similar to finding a partner. If you like it, you may not like you. If you like it, you may not like him. It takes fate and luck to find a job that fits all aspects.

Of course, if you are strong enough, fate and luck will come faster. Just like another friend of mine, he had a lot of achievements in his previous work, and he jumped ship some time ago, and his monthly salary doubled.

Why are some people looking for a job as easy as turning over a book, while others fall down here again and again?

Miss A and I have also discussed this issue. She hit the nail on the head that core competitiveness determines the right to choose. Without core competitiveness, it can only be brushed off again and again.

that's true.

Kobayashi mentioned at the beginning, despite the glory of studying abroad, has only given her theoretical knowledge of books in six years.

for an enterprise, it takes a lot of money to recruit from scratch, so how different is it from an intern who graduated from an ordinary undergraduate course? Even if they are recruited, HR will worry about whether international students will be arrogant and difficult to manage.

It can be said that at present, the undergraduate education of returnees in China is actually at a disadvantage compared with ordinary undergraduate education in China.

With a bachelor's degree, compared with domestic students, returnees lack preparation before taking part in work, including understanding of policies, accumulation of contacts and so on.

However, if you have a postgraduate degree or have work experience before returning to China, returnees will have an advantage over ordinary students in terms of employment and salary.

Miss A has one year's work experience. When she applied for a position similar to her previous work experience, she received many interview opportunities. However, when she wanted to change jobs, she repeatedly ran into a wall with her previous work experience.

after such a long interview, she also met her favorite company, but she didn't receive an offer. Miss A later concluded that her previous work experience was too complicated and she knew a little about everything, but there were no actual cases and achievements to prove her ability.

It can be seen that the company attaches importance to personal work experience, and of course, besides that, a person's logical ability and problem-solving ability are also very important.

when writing this article, I specially talked with miss a about my experience in finding a job. here are some points to sum up.

1. Don't use black-and-white forms for your resume.

A good-looking resume may not be noticed, and 99% of your black-and-white forms will be submerged in the sea of resumes, and even the body can't be found.

during the interview, miss a saw a black-and-white resume specially picked out by HR and thrown away as waste paper.

A resume is just like a person's appearance. No one will find your glittering inside through your sloppy appearance, and no one will see your work ability through your casual resume.

So, it's much more useful to spend some time on your resume than to throw it in at random, so sharpening your knife will not make you miss the woodcutter.

2. Don't submit more than one resume.

when submitting a resume, it is best to modify the resume content according to the position you are submitting. Work experience, which best meets the requirements of the post, is written at the front for HR to see at a glance.

3. Don't generalize on your resume.

Before, a friend asked me for help in revising my resume, and I found that they all had the same problem, and there were a lot of empty words.

when you write about your own abilities and advantages, you'd better give examples to prove later, specifically what you have done and what you have achieved.

For example, if you say that you are good at writing, you should write down how many original articles you have written, where you have published them or what size you have reprinted them, and how much you have read.

4, resume should highlight the key points.

Determine the job you want, read more about the requirements of the same position, and sort out your school experience or internship experience according to those points.

Basic information is enough as long as you have your name, date of birth, telephone number, email address, residence, household registration, education and school. More attention should be paid to experience and professional skills, and it is better to have works or cases.

by the way, you can get extra points for being a good PPT, because PPT tests logical thinking ability, aesthetics and whether you have presentation ability, and leaders attach great importance to these abilities.

so it's good to spend half of your time playing pesticides and learn PPT.

5. Your resume should be prepared.

many people think it's clear on their resumes, so it's good for HR to read it by itself.

However, during the interview, HR will still ask you what is on your resume. You should know what is on your resume and prepare your speech in advance.

it's okay to exaggerate a little on the basis of truth, but bragging out of thin air will push you into a dead end. HR can tell at a glance that you are not lying.

It is difficult to find a job, but in fact, the most difficult thing is how to keep the initial intention and direction of finding a job and the courage to forge ahead in the face of repeated blows.

finally, I want to tell your that others can leave you, put your resume aside, and even despise you and laugh at you. It doesn't matter, someone will really appreciate you, and you will find the place that belongs to you.
