What is the employment prospect of financial information management major?
Information management employment prospects Information management major is an interdisciplinary subject of management and computer science, but its courses generally include management-related courses, information retrieval-related courses and computer-related courses. The common phenomenon now is that management majors don't know technology, computer majors don't know management, and enterprises need compound talents. Undoubtedly, as long as we study professionally enough, our weaknesses are likely to become our strengths. For example, the construction of information system is a complex system engineering. It can't be solved by finding a few technicians. Without management experience, accumulation of technical platform and professional implementation methods, it is difficult to achieve results. The definition of compound talents is "knowing both management and computers". Employment orientation1:Professional status of ERP implementation engineer or ERP implementation consultant: With the widespread popularization and application of information technology, society and enterprises have an increasing demand for information-based talents. However, there is a shortage of compound talents who know business, management and technology in China. According to the estimation of Hou Binghui, an ERP expert and professor of Tsinghua University, there are only 1,000 qualified ERP implementation consultants in China at present, which is only a drop in the bucket compared with hundreds of thousands of domestic enterprises that need informatization. At present, ERP talents are mainly employed in three directions: one is to work in a software company and engage in software implementation; The second is to work in software application units to improve the efficiency of users' software use; Third, we should set up our own company to provide software consulting and implementation services as a bridge between software companies and users. In the next few years, China will need a large number of third-party companies specializing in software consulting and implementation services. Salary level: the average salary is not less than 3,000 yuan/month. For a large foreign-funded firm like KPMG, the salary of an implementation consultant is not less than 7,000 yuan/month, and that of a newcomer is about 5,000 yuan/month. Expert's suggestion: The most important thing to think of famous consultants as ERP implementation consultants is communication ability. Mr. Yang Jingchao, former senior manager of KPMG China Company, gave the author a very simple example to illustrate that the internal management and business of each enterprise are very different. When an enterprise requires you to implement ERP, you must go to every department of the enterprise to familiarize yourself with other people's business processes. How can we go on without communication? The cultivation of communication ability can start from the university. Don't be afraid, speak up and tell others what you think, and learn to listen and admit your mistakes. Communication is really everywhere. Secondly, management and marketing knowledge, as well as financial knowledge. To do ERP, it is necessary to integrate all departments of the enterprise, even the upstream and downstream resources of the enterprise, so you should understand the work contents of each department and the advanced and popular management methods and systems of an enterprise. About these, you can read some professional journals and implementation cases on the website to get familiar with them. You don't have to know the actual details (in fact, you don't have any chance to get in touch with these details except through internship), but you must know the management ideas and basic market principles. A person who goes to a client's office and asks why there must be marketing public relations expenditure, no consulting company wants to invite him to ruin his professional image. Basically, we can't see these things in the current textbooks. We suggest that students read some excellent management periodicals, such as Sales and Marketing and Business. Some practical articles about them should give us inspiration different from textbooks. It is also beneficial to visit China Marketing Communication Network () and other professional websites to read some articles or participate in some discussions. Finally, you should have certain computer application ability and be familiar with some large database management systems (such as Oracle/SQL Server/ /DB2/). ). The Ministry of Information Industry and PCCW Company jointly established ERP talent training certification -ERP management consultant technical qualification certificate. In addition, Kingdee and UFIDA Software also developed the whole training course of ERP implementation. Conditional students can participate in training and get certificates, which is helpful for job hunting. Employment direction 2: Professional status of management software development engineer: From the perspective of demand and "money", the industry is generally optimistic about IT talents after the Spring Festival this year. In this big environment, the market situation of this position in 2005 and beyond should be quite optimistic. Salary: similar to that of software engineer in IT industry. According to different regions, it is around 3000-6000 yuan respectively. The prices offered by companies such as Huawei and Kingdee are enviable among previous graduates. Expert advice: Compared with students majoring in computer and management, we all have certain advantages on the other hand. I chose to focus on computers in college, and then I became familiar with three major economics courses: finance, management and market. Besides having some basic management knowledge, we should also have the concept of teamwork. As we all know, large-scale software development is completed by teams (so-called projects), and your work and cooperation ability are directly related to the progress of the project. I suggest you find some books about team building and cooperation during your school days, first form a concept, and then try to participate in some team activities to understand how to do things well through cooperation. Use more than one programming tool for programming.
