For many years, especially after the financial crisis in 2008, the employment of college students has been brought to public attention. Under the severe employment situation, job-hunting is being a more tough challenge for graduates. Therefore, we often hear that graduation is the synonym of unemployment, which brings great anxiety to graduates. But is this really the case? As far as I am concerned, graduation is not the synonym of unemployment.
多年以来,尤其是2008年经济危机过后,大学生就业已经成为了公共关注的问题。在严峻的就业形势下,求职成为了大学生面临的艰难挑战。因此,我们经常听到毕业等于失业这样的话,给毕业生带来了很大的焦虑。但是情况真的是这样的吗?在我看来,毕业不等同于失业。
There’s no doubt that today’s labor market is not what it was years ago, and the advantages of college graduates are not so superior. Therefore, the first thing we have to do is having a clear understanding of the changes in the situation and shift our psychology and expectation. Control our expected salary in a reasonable bound. Besides, chances are always for those people who are prepared adequately. Because of the prosperous economy and improving employment markets, there still are plenty of opportunities, but only those who are well prepared can make use of them to achieve their purposes. Furthermore, hold a positive attitude towards employment. It is the firtst step that costs troublesome. Job-hunting is not an easy task and we may be refused by employer, but we can’t be discouraged. We always should be positive and confident to ourselves.
毫无疑问,如今的就业市场不再是几年前的样子,大学生的优势也不是那么优越。因此,我们要做的第一件事就是对当今情况的变化有一个清楚的了解,并转变我们的心理和期望。合理的控制我们期待的薪酬范围。此外,机会总是青睐有准备的人。由于经济的繁荣和就业市场的改善,机会仍然是很多的,但是只有那些做好准备的人能够充分利用它们来达到目的。而且,对就业要保持积极的态度。这是麻烦的第一步。找工作不是件容易的事,我们可能会被招聘者拒绝,但是我们不能泄气。我们应该一致保持乐观和自信。
In short, the challenges of employment is always there but it’s not so horrible as we imagine. We should improve ourselves to get a chance and believe that there must be a right job still waiting for us.
总之,就业的挑战一直都会存在,但是并不像我们想象的那么可怕。我们应该提高自己去赢得机会,并且相信一定有合适的工作在等着我们。
