Liberal arts employment

The best answer is that on Sunday, June 3rd, 2007, at 04:26 pm, Mo Yi reported the employment permit for newcomers in the workplace-a liberal arts major with good employment.

How about studying liberal arts? This seems to be a controversial topic for a long time. Many students and parents who choose liberal arts think that liberal arts majors are good, with high income, good social status and easy and decent work. Therefore, liberal arts majors fill in a large number of students in the college entrance examination every year, and the admission scores are also quite high. Because it is easy to recruit students and the cost of offering liberal arts majors is relatively low, there is a phenomenon that most colleges and universities offer liberal arts majors.

The names of liberal arts majors sound really attractive: economics, finance, law, business administration, journalism, international economy and trade ... after graduation, those majoring in economics and finance go to banks, those majoring in business administration go to industrial and commercial bureaus and large enterprises, those majoring in law are lawyers, those majoring in journalism are journalists, and those majoring in international trade are engaged in foreign trade ... which one is not famous?

However, facts speak louder than words. Let's look at some news reports first:

News 1: The Ministry of Personnel of China recently released "Investigation and Analysis on Employment Acceptance of College Graduates in 2005 and Demand in 2006" on its official website. The survey shows that compared with the employment situation of college graduates in the past three years, the employment rate of engineering graduates is the highest, followed by science and liberal arts. Liberal arts majors such as law, economics, business administration and administrative management continue to decline.

News 2: In view of what causes the employment difficulties of liberal arts students, Dr. Zhang Wangcheng from Beijing Normal University talked about his own views: "China is currently in a period of rapid industrialization and the secondary industry is developing rapidly. A considerable number of enterprises are paying more and more attention to technological upgrading and product innovation, so it is reasonable to maintain a fairly high growth trend in the demand for science and engineering graduates. Although the tertiary industry has developed faster than the secondary industry in recent years, the demand for high-level service talents has not increased year-on-year, and the rapidly growing tertiary industries such as computers and telecommunications have obvious preferences for science and engineering graduates. Therefore, the outlet for liberal arts graduates is obviously limited. "

Not only in China, but also in most countries, science and engineering talents are more important. The reason is that the role of science students in society after employment is often visible. They can quantify material production and create material wealth. The traditional mission of liberal arts graduates is to manage society, inherit culture and values, shape the spirit of the times, and provide knowledge resources and human resources for people's life and social operation. Although their role is indispensable, their role is difficult to quantify and accumulate, so their work is often regarded as dispensable.

Like a basin of cold water. Is it true that liberal arts students are not optimistic about their future?

Don't worry, based on the principle of suppressing first and then promoting, let's take a look at some news:

News 3: Although the application scope of liberal arts students is relatively narrow, the situation of "universal oil" is very obvious, which invisibly expands their employment. The advantages of being good at communication and socialization also make them feel at home in the workplace.

News 4: Many human resources departments of enterprises say that liberal arts students with high comprehensive quality are welcome. Minor in computer, economy, management, design, second foreign language and other courses, liberal arts students with high comprehensive quality are highly competitive in employment.

After the analysis, the next thing to do is naturally to guide the work. Which liberal arts majors are good for employment? Let's take our time. A "language" broke through the ground.

"Language" is a language major, including Chinese language and literature, news, secretary and so on, as well as some foreign languages.

It is natural to choose Chinese. Because its application scope is so wide, there is no line and no company that does not need secretarial and publicity talents. Therefore, although the Chinese major is unremarkable, it can remain at the forefront of the talent market demand list for many years.

Chinese language and literature: the oldest and most popular "all-purpose oil" major, which can be used as secretary, administrator, propagandist, teacher, advertisement, publishing, marketing and so on. There are many roads. If you choose this major and want to be competitive in employment, you'd better have some specialties.

For example, writing, don't think that students who study Chinese can write. Writing here refers to outstanding writing ability and ingenious writing style, so as to be a good leader's pen and spokesperson and become an excellent reporter and editor. For example, computers, many small units, there is no professional computer maintenance personnel. If something goes wrong with the computer, they will be at a loss. It takes time and money to hire someone from outside to solve even a small problem. If an administrator can still be a computer maintenance person, why not? For example, sports literature and art are an important part of cultural activities. Now many powerful units attach great importance to image engineering, and are willing to invest a lot of money to win some competitions in order to show their style. If you are good at playing ball, singing and dancing, congratulations and try to carry it forward. For example, calligraphy, painting, a welcome banner written in beautiful China calligraphy, and a vivid poster can all play a good publicity role. Secretary: This kind of major is more popular with small and medium-sized enterprises. Compared with Chinese and journalism, the employment orientation of secretarial major is undoubtedly much stronger, so there are many professional contents in the curriculum. Such as meeting management, office automation, secretarial etiquette, financial management, file management, etc. Some schools even include ordering and purchasing in the teaching plan in detail and teach all the contents of secretarial practice in place. In this way, compared with Chinese and news, secretarial graduates are more like an all-rounder who knows everything and can do everything. For small and medium-sized enterprises that are good at saving human resources, choosing a secretarial major is like choosing a good housekeeper. Foreign Language: It is imperative to choose a foreign language major. Foreign language has always been a booming major, and both enrollment and employment are booming. With the improvement of China's openness, translation and foreign language education have developed rapidly.

Foreign affairs departments need foreign language talents. Almost every government department at or above the county level has a foreign affairs office. With the increasing foreign exchanges, the demand for foreign language talents naturally rises. In order to attract foreign investment, all localities are scrambling to build development zones, which has formed an irresistible trend. Therefore, the development zone has also become an important town for recruiting foreign language talents.

Foreign trade companies need foreign language talents. In addition to the traditional state-owned foreign trade companies, a large number of private foreign trade enterprises have emerged in the process of China's gradual integration into the WTO. These enterprises are thriving, and many production companies are scrambling to expand overseas markets, so foreign language departments have also been established, and foreign language talents naturally sell well.

Education needs foreign languages. "All the people learn foreign languages" is the characteristic of China, and foreign languages start with dolls and reach adults. On the one hand, foreign language education is younger, and many primary and secondary schools and even kindergartens are implementing bilingual education, which has a strong demand for foreign language teachers. On the other hand, the status of foreign languages is unshakable. China people can't live without a foreign language all their lives, from the connection between college degree certificate and CET-4 and CET-6 to the foreign language examination for setting professional titles. Coupled with a large number of foreign language remedial classes, the demand for foreign language teachers has only increased.

The publishing industry needs foreign languages. As a necessity of education, a large number of foreign language teaching materials, counseling books and magazines are published. At the same time, the prosperity of cultural undertakings has also prompted the introduction of a large number of foreign bestsellers. Harry Potter has a long history, and the sales of Who Moved My Cheese and Postman Fred are soaring, so there are more and more foreign language editors in publishing houses and magazines.

Tourism needs foreign languages. The mysterious and ancient China has attracted many foreign tourists, and the profound culture of China needs translators to explain it to foreign guests. It is timely for foreign language talents to be tour guides.

As for the choice of foreign languages, it varies from region to region. English is popular all over the country, and Japanese, Korean and Russian are very popular in Northeast China. German, French and Japanese are in great demand in North China, while Japanese and ASEAN minor languages are very popular in South China. Bottom line: foreign languages should be chosen according to the development of regional economic and political cooperation. As for some rare small languages, such as Arabic, there are few students, stable supply and demand channels and worry-free employment. Managing the World Bank

Here are some practical and high-tech management majors to recommend to you.

Tourism Management: This major has been established for a long time and there are many colleges and universities. It seems to be in a medium state for many years, but the employment is really good, especially after 2000. Eating, drinking and having fun are the four great pleasures of life. When you are full of food and drink, you want to have fun. Therefore, the tourism industry is booming, many families incorporate tourism into their life plans, and many units have long implemented tourism as a welfare. Because this is a green economy, the government also strongly supports it. In addition, China has a vast territory and abundant resources, so it has unique advantages in developing tourism. Every year, many new scenic spots can be developed all over the country, and the tourism resources are inexhaustible.

Therefore, travel agencies compete with each other. Here, tourism management can be used for both tour guides and management.

Because of the unprecedented increase of tourists, there is a great demand for tour guides, and because the default shopping link in tourism implements the tour guide reward system, the reward is very rich, and even some non-professionals with outstanding eloquence try to enter this industry. The graduates majoring in tourism management, as professionals, are proficient in tour guide services, with high service quality, holding tour guide certificates and obvious competitive advantages.

In management, travel agencies compete with each other in route planning, price calculation, service quality, public relations ability and management efficiency in order to compete for the source market. These competitions need professional tourism talents to do.

On the other hand, various scenic spots also need a large number of tourism management talents. They need to publicize themselves, attract tourists, plan and position rationally, do a good job in brand, do a good job in tourism service and establish a good reputation. By the way, the hotel management major is a higher vocational major. As an important part of tourism facilities, it is highly valued by quality-oriented travel agencies and tourists. Hotel management involves food, accommodation, reception, management and other aspects. It is an indispensable talent for star-rated hotels, and the employment rate has been relatively high.

People who study tourism management should be generous, calm and thoughtful. Archives management: About five years ago, I was still a cold major, and my employment was not good. However, after thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, 1996 "People's Republic of China (PRC) Archives Law Amendment" was implemented, the state intensified the management of archives, mandatorily requiring all organs, enterprises and institutions to realize standardized management of archives. At the same time, through vigorous publicity, all units began to realize the important role of archives and began to attach importance to archives management. After several years of rectification and publicity, archival work ushered in the spring of development around 2000. Archives management is actually a combination of arts and sciences. From the content point of view, in addition to the basic content of file management, it also learned the file editing and research belonging to advanced management and the computer management belonging to modern management.

Archives are divided into document archives, scientific and technological archives and special archives. Archives management should be studied in depth from these three aspects. Document files are the most extensive. When its basic function is paid attention to, many units begin to set up the post of archivist, and the demand is also rising steadily. Because of the contents of file editing and research in file management, students' editing and research ability is generally good, and for better employment, many schools (such as Guangxi University for Nationalities) have added secretarial courses, so some small and medium-sized enterprises and institutions prefer file management professionals who can write and manage secretarial work.

Many R&D enterprises attach importance to scientific archives because they can provide a good technical foundation for scientific research, and the practice of scientific management by professional archivists has been recognized by enterprises.

Professional files include personnel files and accounting files. The development space of personnel files is particularly large. With the liberalization of the personnel system, the trend of talent flow is irreversible. Except for government agencies, all units no longer accept employee files, but implement personnel agency, that is, employee files are kept by the talent exchange center. In this way, talent exchange centers around the country have set up personnel agency departments to carry out file custody business. How to manage a large number of personnel files scientifically and standardize and ensure their safety requires a large number of file management professionals.

There are not many institutions offering archives management, among which China Renmin University and Wuhan University are the most famous. The key to choosing this major is to be able to withstand boredom and loneliness. Human resource management: Although this major has been criticized by some experts, it is considered that recent college graduates are not qualified for personnel management. However, modern enterprises can ignore these. They believe that after the implementation of personnel agency, complex personnel work only exists in government agencies and institutions. What they need is the management of human resources, such as talent recruitment, job training, performance appraisal and so on. Therefore, modern enterprises, especially large and medium-sized enterprises in the Pearl River Delta and Yangtze River Delta, have become the main recruitment centers for graduates majoring in human resource management.

Manufacturing enterprises generally recruit a large number of skilled workers all the year round, and often send human resources commissioners to vocational schools around the country or sit at headquarters for recruitment assessment. They designed a series of assessment procedures according to their positions. After selecting workers, they were quickly assigned to various positions according to their majors, and then they were trained on the job. After a few rounds, it will be a year. Due to the high mobility of workers and the rapid expansion of factories, the human resources department often becomes the busiest department in enterprises.

Scientific and technological enterprises, such as IT industry, also attach great importance to human resource management, because talents are capital and competitiveness. In addition to recruitment, daily management, performance appraisal, salary and welfare formulation and implementation are also important contents of human resource management. Human resource managers are more likely to play the role of managers and service providers in these places.

As a new major, the establishment of human resource management is spreading. It is suggested to choose some comprehensive universities with the foundation of management discipline, learn more humanistic knowledge and carry out more efficient comprehensive management. Finally, to sum up: to choose a liberal arts major, we must first look at whether the professional work suits our personality. If it is not suitable, it must be done badly. Don't study blindly. Secondly, we should carefully analyze whether it has a market or not, and whether we can learn some practical things, such as business administration, which is easy to fall into theory and lacks room for operation, so we should be cautious.
