I want to change my profession to do color work, and I don't know if it is suitable. Do you have any certificates to take or books to read?

I have been talking about "diluting the industry and diluting the post". You don't know the extent of this effort, because there is a time node for changing careers.

In other words, at that age, it's too late for you to change careers or change careers.

Graduation this year is a blank sheet of paper. At this time, it is best to choose an industry. From studying ants to developing aircraft carriers, from office clerks to programmers, from unmanned submersible industry to companies flying to the back of the moon, you can submit resumes to join them.

After that, every 1 year, it will be roughly 20% off. How many years have you graduated? The probability of your career change, or the degree of market recognition for your career change, is the power of 0.8.

0 years after graduation, employment probability100%;

65438+ 0 years after graduation, the career change probability (market acceptance) is 80%;

The probability of changing careers two years after graduation is 64%;

The probability of changing careers three years after graduation is 51.2%;

The probability of changing careers four years after graduation is 40.9%;

The probability of changing careers five years after graduation is 32.8%;

The probability of changing careers six years after graduation is 26.2%;

The probability of changing careers seven years after graduation is 20.9%;

Eight years after graduation, the probability of changing careers is16.8%;

The probability of changing careers nine years after graduation is13.4%;

10 The probability of changing careers after graduation is 10.7%. ......

So wordy, just to tell you intuitively, so that you can compare and hurry up.

It's not that you can't change careers, but the difficulty is gradually increasing. Once you have passed the fixed number of years, the brand of your past industry and position will deepen. Others reject you with "industry mismatch" and "job mismatch", which is the reason to kill you. Even you have to admit that this is the knowledge of the job market.

Check the above table yourself and see what your percentage is. Subtract your percentage from 100%, which is the difficulty coefficient of your career change.

At the age of 30, I am most afraid of learning a skill. Is it still useful to "learn a skill" at the age of 30? ",that is to say, you have been working for 8 years since you graduated at the age of 22, and your career change probability is only 17%. Eight and a half out of ten interviews turned you down directly. What new skills are you learning? It's not that this technology is useless, it's that you learned this technology is useless.

Back to the theme of this article, it is not easy to change careers after graduation for a few years. My answer is six years.

If you have graduated for more than six years, it will be much more difficult to change jobs than before. Three of the four interviews turned you down directly to your face, and the other one was noncommittal.

This will seriously hurt your self-confidence, and then you will be bored and sulk. The woman is ok, go back and blame her mother-in-law for scolding her husband; Men have no choice but to drink, smoke or do bad things.

This is a contradiction. The job market always needs people who match industries and jobs, but this industry is a dynamic process. It used to be iterated almost every 30 years, and then it will be iterated less than 10 years in the next 20 years. The life span of jobs, posts and positions is obviously shorter.

Therefore, when you calm down and think about continuing the matching of industries and jobs in the same industry and the same department, the industry disappears, enterprises close down, jobs are cancelled, you are unemployed, and the result of your persistence in matching industries and jobs is called unemployment crisis.

At this time, it is usually ten years after graduation. For example, if you graduate at the age of 22-25, then you are 32-35, so it is also called a midlife crisis.

I just joined the company before and called for an interview. I mean, am I working or leaving? As I said at the beginning, among the people who came to consult me, the stupid questions were mainly the following five categories, and the fifth category was the middle-aged crisis.

First, when the resume is falsified and is notified to do a third-party background check;

Second, I was suddenly told that I couldn't come to work tomorrow (layoffs);

Third, the new company just joined the company and found it to be a pit;

Fourth, there is nothing to do during the stocking period. I feel that "the company will dismiss me at any time";

Fifth, middle-aged unemployment.

Middle-aged crisis is a normal state caused by various objective reasons. Only a few people were lucky enough to escape this robbery. For most people, it is a normal state. Normality can only be gradually improved, not a panacea for sudden resurrection.

At this time, too many people came to me for a breakthrough, saying that I had joined my knowledge planet or bought one of my courses, hoping to get this antidote and a solution, "Don't hide anything."

In fact, it's like spinning silk from the mountains of disease, and it's also a gradual process. There is no instant panacea, and there is no immortal 72 change. Too old gentleman is used to cheat you, and so is the Monkey King.

The so-called career change refers to two industries.

One is the product industry of your company, also called the main business.

Whether you speculate or not, listed companies are mainly classified according to product industries, such as automobile industry, such as solar energy industry, such as logistics express industry, e-commerce industry, software development industry and so on. You can understand what an industry is without looking at the picture.

Product industry, represented by X axis.

Don't you get it? Then look at the picture below, you can open your future without worry, you can choose so many industries, more than a dozen categories, fifty or sixty subcategories.

Continue to look at the picture below. I also matched the average wages of the whole industry in a certain year, so that you can better understand the wage differences in the industry.

The second industry is called position.

That is, what do you do, procurement, finance, or personnel, or engineering, design or UI, or products, or marketing? Are you really a salesman?

This option is also one of the main parameters for Zhaopin's recruitment and worry-free job selection.

We often say: "The salary in our business is not high, really not high!" Even in this job-hunting industry, I always say "our purchasing work has been very busy", which is also an industry, and most companies have this department.

In the above picture, I also made a salary statistics of a position in a certain year. Please refer to.

You sew for customers. This is a logistics service engineer or a technician.

You are modest, saying that you are a photographer and provide pictures for designers and other operating departments of the company, then you are also a photographer. This is your job, also called business.

The second industry is job category and department, which can be represented by Y axis.

On many recruitment portals, you can also enter the position category to query the salary data of colleagues in the same position.

The horizontal industry X and the vertical industry Y merged, as shown below, and the coordinate plane came out.

With coordinates, it is called orientation.

Look at your coordinates. You have a female classmate. When she first graduated, her first job was as a human resources specialist in the IT industry. She switched to the automobile industry to continue to be HR, then worked as a customer service supervisor in the automobile industry, and then switched to the real estate industry to continue to be a customer service supervisor. I don't know whether she jumped ship internally or to a competitor. She actually switched to accounting supervisor here, and later switched to an education and training company as a financial manager. She said that she also worked as a purchasing manager. Later, when the company wanted to promote her to be the person in charge, she went to an e-commerce company to operate and was still a shareholder. Now, at the age of 43, she is the minister and vice president of a large listed company specializing in chemical industry. ......

Above, let's take a look at the career path of this female colleague. She added a red coordinate Z to her map, which is a promotion of the position level. You should study it carefully. Her career is thriving.

With this third coordinate, you have a position, a position, a position. This is called career orientation.

Keep asking questions. It's not easy to change careers a few years after graduation. Remember the following three sentences:

Within 0-5 years after graduation, you can boldly change careers;

Starting from six years after graduation, either change careers or change jobs. There must always be an extension, otherwise it will not move;

/kloc-after graduation in 0/0, 20% people broke through the dilemma of job-hopping through management positions. The quality manager jumped from purchasing manager and personnel director to vice president of marketing and commerce. After all, the art of management is similar, but I tell you, the easier way is not to manage, but to reduce salary, followed by demotion.
