Employment direction:
Law was once recognized as a good major for "iron rice bowl". However, with the saturation of law enforcement agencies such as the Public Security Bureau and the Procuratorate, the number of law graduates has decreased, and the number of legal employment opportunities has decreased. The cold period has arrived. This phenomenon not only exists in the employment of ordinary undergraduate graduates, but also in some well-known law schools. Wuhan University revealed that 300 master's degree students have difficulty finding jobs. Has law really become a major that people think is easy to find and difficult to find? Our country is in a period of transition from an administrative system society to a market economy society. The legal profession is experiencing pain and rebirth. A series of popular employment fields such as law are picking up.
1. Lawyer:
It is still a golden profession. The word lawyer always brings to mind words such as quick thinking and personable demeanor. Compared with the boring practicing environment of public prosecutors and law, it has always been an ideal choice for young graduates. Lawyers are also recognized as a high-income class in society and are a symbol of identity and status. After joining the WTO, lawyers are one of the biggest beneficiaries. Lawyers who understand English and international law have very bright career prospects. A lawyer's income depends on the lawyer's ability. A high annual salary can reach 300,000 yuan or even millions of yuan, while a low annual salary may only be about 10,000 yuan. Different majors such as economic law, labor law, and intellectual property have different incomes. Currently, our country implements a strict admission system for lawyer qualifications, and lawyers must pass the national judicial examination.
2. Legal advisor:
A new choice for graduates. Legal consultants are the most concentrated employment sector for law graduates in my country. Mainly serving the legal affairs departments, legal advisory departments and intellectual property departments of enterprises, etc., and some are provided to the government's legal advisory departments, but this part is not something that ordinary undergraduates can do, and general government departments have academic requirements for legal advisors higher. As for salary, the annual salary of legal service personnel of foreign companies is around 100,000, and they are required to be proficient in English or a common national language; the annual salary offered by large state-owned enterprises and private enterprises is around 50,000 to 70,000, but there are also differences for different universities and majors. Differently, for example, Shenzhen Huawei Group and ZTE offer annual salaries of 100,000 and 80,000 yuan respectively to undergraduates studying at Southwest University of Political Science and Law; small companies offer annual salaries of around 20,000 yuan.
3. Single-discipline employment:

Generally speaking, this type of position has higher professional requirements and a smaller number, but the salary is definitely high.

Such practitioners need to be proficient in professional knowledge of environmental law.

It is possible to earn an annual salary of one million, but the required professional knowledge is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people and requires continuous training over time.
(5) Professional Detectives
The criminal investigation profession covered by the law has always been a hot topic in the law, but the emergence of professional detectives now also shows that there are actually many paths to the law.

The position of film and television legal advisors has also emerged. They must not only ensure the accuracy and correctness of the legal issues of the film , and must handle issues in all aspects of film production and distribution. There is no specific standard for salary, it depends on which director or producer you work with. Therefore, many law schools offer broadcasting majors.
