Possibly the salaries of graduates are now getting lower and lower, a recent survey showed that nearly half of the graduates of 07 years of the monthly salary of less than 1,500, so many people are concerned about their own industry, many people ask what the best job pay, what careers are the most promising, the prospects for the best after graduation? So some hot topics like "China's 10 highest-paying professions" came out.
In the increasingly fierce competition for talent, two years later in 2010, what kind of industry can let you have a heart? Look at the following anticipated career trends:
Simultaneous interpreting: $300,000 to $400,000 a year.
Simultaneous interpreters have been called "the first major shortage of talent in the 21st century". With the increase of China's foreign economic exchanges and the emergence of "conference business opportunities" brought by the Olympic Games, more and more simultaneous interpreters are needed.
3G engineers: income basic annual salary of 150,000 yuan to 200,000 yuan.
It is estimated that the domestic 3G talent gap will reach more than 500,000 people.
Network media talent: annual income of 100,000 yuan to 120,000 yuan.
Currently, similar to the network editors in Sina and Sohu have a monthly salary of about 5,000 yuan, medium positions in the income of 8,000 yuan to 10,000 yuan.
System integration engineers: estimated annual income of 100,000 yuan to 200,000 yuan.
User requirements for systems integration services continue to increase, from the initial network construction to the application of basic industries, to consulting services on business processes and resource strategies. The future of systems integration engineers should be all the way up the career ladder.
Actuaries: annual income of 120,000 yuan to 150,000 yuan.
Fewer than 10 actuaries in China are recognized by the world's insurance industry. With international insurance giants opening up markets in China and the needs of domestic companies, actuaries are the hottest talent in the insurance industry in a few years' time, with an average annual salary of $100,000 abroad and a monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan at home at present.
Environmental engineers: annual income will be 80,000 yuan to 100,000 yuan.
Calculated in accordance with internationally accepted practices, China's shortfall in environmental engineers in about 420,000 people. At present, the domestic garden designers, landscape designers are about seven or eight thousand dollars a month.
Certified public accountants: annual income will be around 100,000 yuan.
Logistician: now 1 year can earn 100,000 yuan.
When seeing these kinds of articles, most people will think it makes sense, and even begin to consider the transformation of their professional direction. But they don't see the other side of the coin.
At this point in time some people came forward to stand in their own point of view to say another point of view, I think this point of view than the above is slightly better.
Chinese people have always had a dangerous preference for seeing technology as everything, and technical jobs such as engineers, programmers, and actuaries are regarded as iron rice bowls and high wages, but once these positions reach the age of 40 or so (programmers and network engineers probably won't make it to the age of 40), they are in danger of being eliminated and forced to change careers, and they must be prepared for it in advance. And now the engineering and computer fields have been very saturated, even Microsoft, IBM, such a large company, the domestic undergraduate salary is not attractive, excellent graduate students are often only the treatment of the next 10,000 yuan per month (plus bonuses may be slightly higher), which in any case can not be said to be the "highest-paying career.
In any country that has largely industrialized, top financial and managerial talent is among the highest paid. Of course, careers that undergraduates or graduate students cannot take up immediately after graduation, such as corporate executives, cannot be included in the category of "highest-paid professions". So, what are the highest-paying careers for an undergraduate or graduate student from a major Chinese university after graduation? What are the careers with the broadest prospects? Try to list the following, with salary as the first consideration, development prospects for the second consideration, social status, prestige as a supplementary consideration, roughly:
1, foreign investment banks
Specifically Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup Global Investment Bank, Lehman Brothers, Deutsche Bank, Credit Suisse First Boston, UBS Warburg and other first-rate overseas investment banks, which have representative offices or branches in China. All of them have representative offices or branches in China, and each of them usually recruits 5-10 people in mainland China every year, or only 1-2 people in less time. Graduates recruited by investment banks in China work in different locations such as Tokyo, Hong Kong, Singapore, Beijing, Shanghai, etc. Among them, Tokyo pays the highest salary and mainland China pays a lower salary. After 3 years in any first-class investment bank, applying to a top U.S. business school will almost certainly lead to success and an unlimited future after MBA graduation.
Investment bank reference salary (first year graduate students, undergraduates may be slightly lower): Goldman Sachs Tokyo 900,000RMB / year, Deutsche Asia Pacific 750,000RMB / year, Morgan Stanley Beijing 250,000RMB / year (year-end dividends are calculated separately).
2, foreign consulting firm
Special reference to McKinsey, Bain, Boston Consulting Group, Morrisons, Mercer, Aysencher and other top overseas consulting firms, which can be divided into management consulting, investment consulting, human resources consulting, market consulting, technology consulting and other segments. The number of consulting firms recruiting slightly more than investment banks, generally 10-30 people per year each, McKinsey and other companies slightly less, Mercer and other companies slightly more, last year, because of the expansion of foreign consulting business, the number of recruiters generally have improved. Consulting company salary gap is relatively large, but the work of 3-5 years can have a very substantial salary increase, senior consultant salary is not less than the investment banker. In the consulting company to apply for the top U.S. business schools basically can be successful, and MBA graduation after the broader future.
Consulting firms reference salary (ibid): McKinsey, Bain 150,000 -200,000 RMB/year, Roland Berger 100,000 RMB/year, and the rest of the in between. The second year of salary increase of 100%, the third year up 50% -100%, three to four years after the annual salary can generally exceed 500,000RMB.
3, joint venture or Chinese investment banks
Including the CICC, Gowers Securities, BOCI can barely be counted on a. In fact, the CICC is equivalent to Morgan Stanley. In fact CICC is the Chinese equivalent of Morgan Stanley's Chinese branch, which pays extremely well but has declined in recent years. Gowers is the Chinese equivalent of Goldman Sachs, just over a year old and its future is not yet known. Salaries can be compared to foreign investment banks, which are generally slightly lower.
4, some employees are treated very well by large foreign companies
These positions are more decentralized, but most of them are concentrated in marketing, strategic planning, financial management and other departments. Recognized treatment is very high, the future is very bright foreign companies are: Procter & Gamble, Mars, Maersk, Daimler Chrysler, General Motors' financial sector and so on. Their salaries are not as high as those of investment banks and consulting firms, but the training and future diversity of individuals far exceeds that of investment banks, and the practicality exceeds that of consulting firms, which is very favorable for future business work. The intensity of the work of these foreign companies is generally much lower than that of investment banks, and comes with many training opportunities, the "performance-price ratio" is very high.
Some large foreign companies reference salary (different departments often vary greatly, to the first year of the higher salary shall prevail): P&G marketing or finance department 70,000-10,000RMB/year, Maersk 100,000-20,000, Mars 12,000 or so. Johnson & Johnson and Unilever are slightly lower than P&G.
5, foreign commercial banks or full-fledged banks
such as ABN AMRO, Société Générale, HSBC, Standard Chartered Bank, Barclays Bank, etc., their investment banking and commercial banking diaphragm is not very large, but there is a certain difference in the wages of various departments. The higher-paying positions such as corporate finance (the equivalent of investment banking) and private banking tend to be much higher than the typical consumer banking and insurance positions. In any case, these foreign-owned full-service banks give a more comprehensive workout than investment banks, with a higher probability of switching between departments, so the future may not be as good as that of an investment bank or consulting firm.
Reference salaries for foreign-owned full-service banks: up to 400,000-800,000RMB/year for investment banking jobs, 70,000-120,000RMB/year for commercial banking jobs, and possibly up to 200,000RMB/year for the better ones.
6, the big four accounting firms
that is, Deloitte, PricewaterhouseCoopers, KPMG, Ernst & Young. Their wages are not high, relative to the complicated workload may be a little unworthy, but the reputation is very good, the work of 3-5 years after going abroad to business school or transfer to other foreign enterprises have a great hope, so there is a "talent springboard," said. "The Big Four has both auditing and consulting positions, but after the auditing scandal in 2002, most of the consulting business was spun off, and it is now more difficult to get consulting positions. However, there are many opportunities to learn and practice business consulting even if you work in the Big 4 in general audit. It's worth noting that the Big 4 discourages employees from going to business school earlier in life, so that may be a deterrent in this regard.
Reference salaries for the Big 4 accounting firms: 60,000RMB/year at PwC, possibly up to 80,000RMB/year with travel allowances and bonuses, etc., and closer to 100,000RMB/year for those who work outside the office regularly, with the other three being slightly higher than PwC. Consulting positions pay a little more than audit positions.
I think such a point of view is actually in the former kind of thinking on the improvement, standing in a higher perspective to see the problem, rather than only focus on the current what what good to feel what good. But this kind of planning obviously does not apply to most people, I guess the person who wants this may be a consulting industry, he also in a large part of the emphasis on foreign companies and financial companies, and put the technical industry and the basic things aside.
It's good to look at the two statements above, because we can see their respective predictions for the future of the industry, and it's also good to know the future trends of several talent industries.
Personal opinion: I think what direction to choose as the direction of future development should have four aspects to decide. Not from the above 2 kinds from the potential of each industry and how much money can earn. Reasonable choice of professional direction starting point should be from which one is more in line with their own development.
The first is your own interest
Engage in your own interest in the direction of research or work you will be very happy to go to the digging to open up, to build their own resources will be faster. Relying on the degree of familiarity with the industry, continue to understand its history and their own understanding of the future can be better predicted. Now is the information age, new things are updated quickly, it is likely that in your interest related to the place suddenly appeared a new thing. As long as you can grasp it, you will be able to move up the ladder in no time. It's not like a traditional job where you have to accumulate experience over the years. Whereas in a normal job you can grow passively through long hours of work or good opportunities, in a job you're interested in you're more likely to seek out new things and improve actively. This is the biggest difference between the two.
The end of last year when I met a friend in Shenzhen, is a software company's UI manager, more than 30, but he will not do that at the end of this year and is likely to come over to us to engage in Internet work. According to his own words is to do so on the design, and now want to go to their own hobby.
The second is prediction and innovation.
The prediction here is not a prediction like the one above. Many people predict that when something is good, there will always be a large number of people rushing to it, and those who rush ahead may indeed get great benefits, but those who rush behind may not be so good. This is the time to think calmly, to be another split.
Because each industry is different, so each industry can be another split wonderland situation is different. For example, some branches of the technology industry may be easier to get out of the new way, while some traditional industries do not have so many opportunities to split the world. So these can be taken into account when choosing a direction.
The third is with their own character and attitude
Career ambition and dare to take risks in the people and like to live a quiet life of people to choose the work and industry is certainly not the same. So this factor should be taken into account in the future career development. In addition, due to gender reasons, the career choice between men and women will also be different, for example, I think girls are much better than boys as teachers.
Fourth, unpredictable factors such as opportunities and twists and turns
There are times when one encounters many unexpected factors, such as a shift in interest, meeting an important person, an opportunity, and so on. When these things occur, they may lead to a change in one's focus in the future. In these factors, we should learn to do in mind, grasp the overall situation, but also be careful.
