What are the difficulties in entering the workplace? The workplace is a battlefield without smoke. For newcomers, they often have many beautiful dreams about their workplace life. They are always full of energy and enthusiasm, but they often make mistakes in their work. What are the difficulties in entering the workplace?
What are the difficulties in entering the workplace for the first time? 1 the first difficulty: you used to be.
For most fresh graduates, these two weeks are their last days at school. Nervous thesis defense, deep classmate affection, faint sadness ... four years of campus life will end at this time. Sweat, community, campus, all these elements will be replaced by another way of life, and that is the workplace.
It was too late to savor the ups and downs of four years, and with a bright vision for the future, these "rookies" who just left school stumbled onto different positions. How to adapt to your job? How to integrate into your office circle? How can I complete my role transformation? A series of problems are in front of these prospective "newcomers" in the workplace. To this end, we invited a career consultant from Ke Rui Management Consulting Company to help these newcomers cross the threshold as soon as possible through his advice.
The second difficulty: environmental barriers
Cold colleagues, not appreciating your boss, boring work … all these make it hard for newcomers in the workplace to accept, but the reality is that you must accept it.
Graduates can't adapt to the new environment, mostly because they underestimate the new environment and new jobs in advance and set their expectations too high and unrealistic. When they follow this high goal to get in touch with the real environment, they often have a sense of loss and feel that everything is unsatisfactory. Many college students who have just left school are idealistic and far from reality. Therefore, graduates should be able to adjust their expectations according to the real environment after they set foot on their jobs, and try to set their expectations lower and more realistic.
Part of the confusion and worry of prospective freshmen about choosing a job comes from the changes in the workplace. This is a changing era. If we can't look at it from a developmental perspective, we may be abandoned.
How to understand the workplace is not a matter of course for prospective newcomers. It is suggested that for those who are new to the quasi-workplace, they must know the background of specific industries and target companies while understanding the overall workplace environment. The more detailed you know, the faster you can adapt to this job, and the more opportunities you have to show your abilities.
Finally, learn to smile at everything and melt the hard ice with warmth. In the final analysis, we should take the initiative to break down barriers.
Bian Bingbin, a senior consultant of Ke Rui Management Consulting Co., Ltd., pointed out that in order to objectively and reasonably determine whether to change jobs, professionals might as well ask themselves five questions: "Where am I going to jump", "What kind of talents do the market need", "Do I have these qualities", "What aspects do I need to improve" and "Do you know my professional temperament tendency". If you can answer more than three questions clearly, the success rate of job-hopping is higher.
In fact, many times, job seekers who are not satisfied with answering all three questions rarely succeed in job hopping.
The third difficulty: myopia.
"If we give up the future job just to get the present job and neglect the respect for self-worth, then there will inevitably be career confusion and the quality of life will be greatly reduced. The present job should bring opportunities for self-improvement. In fact, this is also an important issue that modern professionals must consider. " Yan Bingbin said.
As a matter of fact, prospective newcomers are new to the society and have no overall grasp of the workplace situation and career direction. They don't know how to measure and to what extent they can show that their careers are promising. Because career counselors are always in the front line of the workplace, they can fully obtain information and adjust the evaluation basis with the changes of the workplace at any time, which can provide practical guidance and analysis for prospective newcomers who lack independent understanding of their careers.
Evaluate yourself correctly and have a more comprehensive understanding of the professional world. At this time, prospective newcomers have the conditions to measure the fit between their professional qualifications and professional requirements, so as to predict their future career development.
What are the difficulties in entering the workplace for the first time? 2NO. 1 The working pressure is too high.
Accustomed to the leisurely reading time at school, many newcomers in the workplace feel the pressure of work. Xiao Zhang finally entered a 500 enterprise and left in less than three months. He asked the reason, "The work pressure is too great. I wake up every morning and open my eyes, thinking about my endless work. I feel extremely painful. My boyfriend and I have only met twice since we worked. This is not a human job! "
Second, lack of interest in work.
Everyday is monotonous, with no achievements and no fun. What else can we talk about such a happy job? Helen, a finance major, couldn't bear to leave her job just after the probation period: "Every day, in addition to logging in to the financial system to fill in the form, she has to go to the bank to deposit and withdraw money. The work is very boring. I found that I don't like the feeling of doing finance at all. I really can't stand it! "
No.3 doesn't meet the work requirements.
"I know a lot about the knowledge of the university, but I find it is far from enough in actual work, and I feel that I can't meet the high requirements of the enterprise, which makes me very worried." Rudy, a secretary major, said. As soon as she graduated last year, she applied to a listed group company as the general manager's secretary. She seemed to have done well in the past few months, but the summary and work plan at the end of the year made her a newcomer at a loss and couldn't breathe.
The fourth salary is too low.
"I have worked hard for a year, from morning till night, but I can get 1800 every month. After paying the rent, I can't even attend the class reunion. I have a classmate who dances three times a year, and every time he dances, his salary will rise once. Now he is almost twice as big as me! Everyone is envious. " Ayong, who studied mechanical design, poured out his troubles to us.
The fifth person has little room for development.
Mei Zi, a business English student, told us: "Teachers often say that we should lower our employment expectations and go to grass-roots units, private enterprises and small and medium-sized companies, but the foreign trade company I went to was too small. There are only three people, including me. After a project is completed, I will be idle for at least half a month before I can start a new job. I think there is almost no room for development here. "
No.6 can't find the development direction
Mary, who studied human resources, got the position of human resources assistant of a well-known financial company at the campus job fair. After joining the company, she realized that although she was in the HR position, her work had little to do with HR. The boss arranged for her to manage the company's files and seals, send and receive newspapers and documents, and sometimes take care of meeting coordination. To put it simply, she is doing odd jobs. After more than half a year, she is very confused about her career development.
What are the difficulties in entering the workplace? 3 Suggestions for newcomers in the workplace.
First, don't jump ship frequently. If you change jobs more, no unit will really want you.
In the workplace, we always jump ship for various reasons. There are two kinds of job-hopping, one is that we actively choose to quit, and the other is that we have to passively quit. Personally, it is understandable that when we feel that a company has no future, or when a company feels unhappy, we will jump to a new platform to look for new opportunities, but as a company, the company is very important to a person's stability.
After all, the company has to pay a high price to train a new person. The last thing any company wants to see is that when it spends a lot of time and energy to train a new person, when this new person is about to provide labor and services for the company, this new employee suddenly leaves the company, which is the biggest blow to the company.
And in many cases, some people are addicted to job-hopping and often change jobs. They won't stay in every company for long. So when you want to change jobs, you must stay in a company for at least three years before you can change jobs.
Why three years? Because three years or so is enough time for you to change from a new employee to a mainstay of the company, you can provide your value and service to the company, which is beneficial to the previous company. At the same time, for the company you are about to interview, when they see that you have worked in a company for about three years, they will feel that you are stable in this company and your professional skills should reach a certain level, and then they can recruit you.
Second, you should learn to take the initiative to do things after joining the job, and don't always be on top.
For a company, the company hopes that employees can really take the company's affairs as their own. When employees find themselves lacking in a certain aspect in the process of doing things, they can also learn in time and grow continuously. When the company encounters some problems, employees can take the initiative to deal with them, instead of always feeling that this matter is not their own responsibility or has nothing to do with themselves when these problems arise, and always like to leave it to others to deal with.
For a new employee, when the leaders and colleagues of the company see him dealing with problems for the company, or taking the initiative to share some tasks for other colleagues, many leaders will think that this person is very active and willing to do things, so that the next time there are more opportunities, the leaders will be willing to share more opportunities for this new person, so that he can grow up quickly and adapt to the company environment better. In fact, many times, the opportunity is good. In fact, many times, opportunities are won by yourself, not given by others.
After entering the company, because others are not very familiar with your situation and the leaders don't know how to arrange tasks for you, in this case, you take the initiative to open up the situation and constantly strive for some opportunities for yourself, which is of great help to your future development or to quickly build trust with leading colleagues.
Third, usually participate in the activities organized by the company and interact with people.
When a newcomer enters the company, many people don't know all kinds of information about this newcomer. In general, when looking for people to cooperate or communicate with others, many colleagues will give priority to playing well with themselves or doing things with people they are familiar with. At this time, there are not many opportunities left for newcomers.
Therefore, in this case, newcomers should seize every opportunity to deal with others or cooperate with others, sell themselves to others, and let others know more about themselves. Usually, the company often holds some activities, and newcomers should actively participate in them, actively show their advantages and strengths to more people, and let their outstanding performance leave a good impression on others.
In this way, when the next opportunity comes, colleagues in the company will choose to work with new people. If the newcomer is really excellent, some colleagues are willing to make friends with him and share the work process with him, so that everyone can make progress and grow together.
Fourth, don't pay too much attention to salary when you first enter the workplace. Let's talk about it first
Our main purpose in entering the workplace is to earn more money. If we have a chance to get promoted in our own posts, that is naturally the best. But as newcomers, these are not the main purpose of our first entry into the workplace. The first thing we should do is to make ourselves valuable.
Only when you are valuable will your salary and other benefits increase accordingly. If you are worthless, even if you are after salary and benefits, in the end, this thing does not belong to you. If you want to make yourself valuable, on the one hand, you should learn more, improve yourself more, and let yourself have core competitiveness in the professional field; On the other hand, we should also use some projects in the workplace to improve our project experience, increase our professional knowledge and ability, and enhance our irreplaceability in the whole company and team.
You have done enough in the preparation stage. When one day your irreplaceability in the company is improved, your salary and corresponding benefits will naturally rise slowly. If you do what the core employees of the company should do, then the boss will talk to you and you will have more choices.
Five, just graduated, try to go to the big platform to exercise, and have a good platform endorsement, which is conducive to your future development.
Not every newcomer in the workplace has the opportunity to develop in some big companies when he first joined the work, then receive better training in these companies and finally stay in the company.
But the low probability of going to a big company does not mean that we have no chance to go to a big company. When you first enter the workplace, you should actively strive for all kinds of opportunities. If you have the opportunity, you must go to some well-known big companies for development. As a newcomer in the workplace, I don't know anything about the workplace, and I don't have a thorough understanding of the working methods and some platform resources in the workplace, so it takes a long time for many people to change their identities from students to professionals.
For those who have the opportunity to develop in big companies, the company should provide them with some systematic training when they first enter some big companies. After training in corporate culture, values, core concepts, business pillars, interpersonal communication, salary and benefits, new employees can fully and systematically understand what people do in the workplace, how to cooperate with people in the workplace, and how to use some tools to do things.
Working in a big company immediately after graduation is beneficial to their future development, and it is also beneficial for them to establish their own pyramid model in the workplace as soon as possible. At the same time, the experience of working and exercising in a big company will also help them to have more and better choices when they change jobs in the future.
