If you don't want to have a bumpy job all your life, ask yourself three questions before choosing a job, and you will get out of the confusion quickly. In the real workplace, many people find that they don't like their current jobs after working for a few years, and they always have the impulse to go out and take a break. Let's take a look at three questions before choosing a job if you don't want to have a rough life.
If you don't want to work all your life, choose 1 1. Does your job have many shortcomings or advantages?
Your confusion: At present, the company still wants 1 person to do the work of three people, regardless of the long working hours. The key "money" is not much, but also requires this and that. If it didn't want to learn more experience, it would have quit. By the way, have you left?
HR suggestion: This kind of thing often happens when the company's economy is in recession. When employees adjust their work, they feel that the pressure suddenly increases and there are some complaints. Especially in most enterprises, in order to save costs, even if there are vacancies, they do not recruit people. At this time, it is common to share the work of former colleagues, and there is no need to complain and be surprised.
Unless the workload is really heavy or has nothing to do with the work you do, you don't have to be too dissatisfied. Try to learn to adapt to different responsibilities, check for leaks and fill vacancies, and make yourself an indispensable talent for enterprises.
2. Is the company not suitable for me or am I not suitable for the company?
Your confusion: you enter the company with great expectation, only to find that the work content is too different from your ideal, and the work is not smooth and tied behind your hands. Can't adapt, or just jump ship?
HR suggestion: If you can't give full play to your abilities at work, you can't get satisfactory results; If the company does not give affirmation and respect in time, it will also make the "highly oriented" office workers dissatisfied.
For example, poor promotion, too many related households, small company structure and so on. In short, dissatisfaction with the company's current situation is also the reason for the loss of most employees. However, if you can't express yourself, or your ability doesn't meet the needs of your job, and you are too self-reliant, you should look back and think about yourself, whether you have caught up with the pace of the company, instead of blindly asking the company to cooperate with you.
3. Job-hopping is a shortcut to raise salary?
Your confusion: If you want a raise, this company has little chance at present. Think about jumping off a boat and watching others jump, but is it really feasible?
HR suggestion: Indeed, most people get a salary increase by job hopping, and job hopping is the fastest way to get a salary increase, such as sought-after technicians and managers.
However, "job-hopping" cannot be a good prospect. In the poaching stage, many companies usually offer prices higher than the average price to achieve their goals, but this situation is generally unstable, except for wages, other places are not as good as they want. You will find that you may not stay long in the company.
Calm down, list all the advantages and disadvantages, and analyze your major and preferences. This is the last thing you must do before considering job hopping.
I don't want to have a bumpy job all my life. Before choosing a career, ask three questions.
Ask first: am I serious enough in choosing a job?
You, young you, whether you are looking for a job or pursuing a promotion, which of the following five things have you done?
First, seriously consult at least one "senior person with at least 10 years" who is familiar with your favorite position in your favorite industry. This "old-timer" needs to know you and really care about you in order to help you embark on a career path.
Second, study at least one best-selling book about career planning. It's easy to judge bestsellers. You just need to enter the title in the search fields such as Dangdang, JD.COM Mall and Amazon. Com to check the "number of reviews" of this book. More than 1000 comments are worth reading. )
Third, find a peer, a friend who is 5- 10 years older than you, an elder who is 10-20 years older than you, and analyze your own advantages and disadvantages.
Fourthly, I have tried at least three similar things before choosing a career.
Fifth, make a five-year plan seriously, although this plan may change in the future.
How many ticks did you tick?
If you have less than three ticks, it's a pity that you have a new nickname: "hasty job selection"!
Carelessness in choosing a job can be a lifetime of rough work, or it can be a super worry in the first three to five years of work.
Second, ask two inner questions: Have I let go of the demon of education?
Some recent graduates failed to take the postgraduate entrance examination before applying for a job. Even if they are looking for a job, there is always a devil in their hearts: "Will they take the postgraduate entrance examination next year?"
Even freshmen who decide not to take the postgraduate entrance examination are sometimes fascinated by the postgraduate entrance examination army around them. Seeing the roommates who are preparing for the exam, they always have a sense of crisis in their hearts.
Some young people who already have a master's degree are quite uneasy: "I don't want to study this degree for nothing! I can't get the same Offer as a small (undergraduate)? "
Next, we will analyze these situations one by one to help everyone get rid of their demons and concentrate on finding a job!
The magic method of undergraduate freshmen: postgraduate entrance examination = I want "him", I want it now!
There is actually a simple but super practical formula for whether to take the postgraduate entrance examination: graduate school = I want him, I want him now!
When I want him, I mean you love him and need him.
I want it now, which means that you need the diploma, skills and contacts brought by this "research" now.
The following two types of young people violate the "I want him" factor when choosing to go to graduate school:
1. I don't like my undergraduate major, but I always choose to take part in graduate studies and graduate studies, such as a large number of graduate students majoring in IT.
2. I've never "fallen in love" with a major, and I only chose the cross-major exam based on my spiritual friendship, such as a large number of "graduate students from science to liberal arts".
There are also these two types of young people who violate the "I want it now" selection criteria for graduate studies:
1. Only 22 years old, but you started to study management-related masters, such as MBA, which is obviously your major in the future.
I'm worried that "I'm afraid I can't move when I'm old", so I want it now! Last year, Xiao Xuan, a student majoring in human resources, said to me, "Teacher, how can you still have time to go to graduate school after working, getting married and having children?" My mother asked me to finish reading while I was young! "I said to Xiao Xuan," At the age of 22, you get a piece of paper when you study HR, a master's degree that emphasizes practice; "At the age of 32, you are at least an experienced human resources supervisor. If you study for a master's degree in HR, you will get a piece of paper gold ... "
This theory may not be credible. Let's look at the data.
Table 1 Demand-supply ratio of master's and undergraduate's positions
It is definitely not the result of scientific calculation, but it can basically reflect the requirements of different positions for academic qualifications. Obviously, the proportion of jobs requiring a master's degree is between 10%-30%.
Master's magical method: you can bend today and stretch tomorrow.
If you are a master of technology or a research-oriented discipline of literature, history and philosophy, as long as you are looking for a professional and technical job, you will definitely have much advantages over "small", so you don't have to be wronged.
If you study practical subjects, or you need to cross-line employment to practical positions, such as human resources and marketing, I'm sorry, you have an 80% chance, no, 90% chance, and you stand on the same starting line as Xiaozi (except for high IQ companies).
Xiao Shuang, female, majoring in foreign economic relations and trade, with a master's degree in international relations. After losing the national examination, she aimed at the position of "foreign enterprise market" or "sales". But soon, Xiao Shuang was unhappy: her favorite marketing position didn't value the master's degree, but she often felt that her education was too high, fearing that she couldn't put her mind right. ...
For this kind of graduate students who apply for non-research positions, you may need to "wronged yourself" to compete with "small capital" for positions.
If you feel wronged, remember this sentence: "If you can bend today, you can stretch tomorrow!" " "Maybe you are a few years old and more sophisticated. Maybe your postgraduate entrance examination has brought you stronger logical thinking ability. Then, at work, you have an advantage over the "notebook" that does the same job!
Three questions: Can I defeat the vanity devil?
Because of vanity (I don't deny it), many young job seekers have a bad job search order:
1. Qi Ming
2. High salary
3. Are you interested in this position
I think this industry is very promising.
Well-paid famous enterprises and beautiful cars are two indicators for young people to compare with each other. They have face when they say it, and adrenaline soars when they hear it. The interest in work and the prospect of the industry, because they can't be measured by quantitative indicators such as "Top 500" and "Monthly salary over 10,000", always make young people feel that they are looking at flowers in the fog, windy in the rain and have no confidence in choosing.
However, all the operatives in the workplace know that the high salary of famous enterprises ≈ immediate interests, position industry ≈ long-term interests, so we don't have to compare the salary of the first job too much. It takes about 35 years for a normal person to work, which is like a ultramarathon. It doesn't make much sense to lead at first, but the most important thing is to be able to go higher and higher steadily.
Undoubtedly, whether you are a college student or a newcomer with only one or two years of work experience, you can only choose a career in this order:
1. This position is very professional. Choosing a position is more important than choosing a company reputation. N 1 time! For example, Xiao Jie got two Offer at the same time, one was to be an administrative assistant in a large foreign company, and the other was to do market research in a small local company. Like many young people, Xiaojie did not hesitate to choose a well-known foreign company and always felt that she could transfer her job internally (even if it was not difficult, she took a curve). Xiao Min, a classmate of Xiao Jie, got the opportunity of market research. Three years later, Xiaojie became an executive director, and after three years of experience, Xiao Min jumped ship to a listed company to be the director of market research projects. His salary is tens of percent higher than that of Xiaojie, and the older he is, the more valuable he is.
2. The industry has developed. I won't go into details about this. This chapter will discuss how to choose industries separately.
This enterprise is very famous. Good enterprises do give people many opportunities, but many students misunderstand the opportunities provided by enterprises. They think they can change from "administrative assistant" to "sales assistant" or "marketing assistant" out of thin air. In an enterprise, the same type of job transfer is possible, for example, from "administrative assistant" to "general manager secretary", but it will be much more difficult to transfer from "administrative assistant" to human resources department.
4. The salary is high. Finally, consider salary. You all know the reason: it doesn't matter how much your first salary is, what matters is how much your salary will be in a few years or ten years. When I was young, I received several Offer, often only a few hundred yuan a month; A few years later, the monthly salary gap of different positions is likely to reach several thousand yuan and tens of thousands of yuan.
