1. Finance major: Who said that you were born with a golden spoon in your mouth < P > In recent ten years, finance major has been ranked in the top ten hot majors, and many candidates regard it as a golden brick that knocks on the future life. China Renmin University, which ranks first in economics, has an admission rate of 5.8%, but the number of applicants has surged year by year. The admission rates of Peking University's School of Economics and Guanghua School of Management, which rank first in comprehensive universities, also fluctuate around 6%. The admission rate of Fudan University is even lower, ranging from 3% to 4%. It can be seen that the finance major is deeply loved by the majority of students for its unique golden charm and workplace accommodation. Last year, some media ranked the salaries of major industries, and the securities industry and banking industry were far ahead with absolute advantages, which pushed the enthusiasm of finance majors to a new climax.
There is no doubt that many candidates are optimistic about the good employment prospects when they apply for the finance major. But "popularity" does not mean "good employment", and "easy to find a job" does not mean "finding a good job". There is a big gap in the salary and income of graduate students majoring in finance, which is closely related to the popularity and influence of schools and tutors, as well as their own abilities and practical experience.
Wang Xiaolei, a graduate of Central University of Finance and Economics, works for a private fund company in China. Compared with the senior white-collar workers who go in and out of high-end office buildings on TV and have a mixed mouth of Chinese and English, Wang Xiaolei has his own interpretation of the financial major. "Finance major can't guarantee to get a good job or a high salary after graduation. It may be higher than that of graduates from other majors, but it is not as exaggerated as some people think. We have a female classmate who graduated to be a flight attendant, and Hunan Satellite TV once reported that one of my sisters became a bodyguard. "
Facing the phenomenon of "virtual fever" in finance major, we can see all kinds of misunderstandings in finance major. The financial profession is in urgent need at present, first, senior management talents who can act as leading figures; Second, compound talents who are proficient in foreign languages, law and computers; Third, senior professionals in law, consulting, intermediary and accounting, while financial talents and financial service talents with international financial management concepts and experience have been scarce. From this point of view, the requirements of finance for financial talents are gradually higher, and more emphasis is placed on those graduates with solid knowledge base and strong plasticity. For this reason, many finance graduate students who are preparing for the exam and studying are cross-majors, and the tutors also welcome these cross-majors very much. Even some financial analysis institutions specify that graduates with engineering background are needed. What they want is rigorous and rational thinking and analysis of engineering.
second, law major: dare not face employment
a middle school physics teacher, working as a middle school teacher in a small county, wanted to change his life status, resigned from his original formal post as a teacher and applied for a postgraduate degree in law. Only after graduation can I find that graduate students in the field of law are already overcrowded. As a result, he not only lost his old job, but also couldn't find a new job. Finally, he only joined the ranks of the unemployed. "I still want to find a legal job, but the employer must have work experience, but the Tang Priest has never been to the Western Heaven before learning the scriptures!" Now, he has submitted his resume for nearly a month, and at the same time, he has shuttled around Xiamen's major law firms for internships and interviews. However, there is still no news of the recruitment letter, and the resume he submitted is like a meat bun hitting a dog, and there is no return.
At present, almost every institution of higher learning has a major in law, and the expanded major setting is seriously out of balance with the relationship between social supply and demand. Law seems to have a wide range of employment, high employment threshold and many barriers, and it must pass the judicial examination. All industries can be involved, civil servants are less recruited, work experience is set up, enterprise skills are required, and majors and job requirements do not match. If we don't do a comprehensive analysis-the difficulty of future employment, our own characteristics, development planning and economic cost considerations, we are likely to face a huge crisis.
third, English language and literature: the demand of the industry is becoming saturated, and "doing two things with one heart" is popular.
English language and literature major is a typical liberal arts category that has entered the top ten hot majors. The popularity of this major is closely related to China's entry into WTO and the process of internationalization. According to relevant surveys, there are about 6, translation professionals employed in China, and the number of translation practitioners is conservatively estimated at 5,. However, relevant sampling surveys show that the number may reach 1 million. Simultaneous interpretation, conference interpretation and other translation positions are also in urgent need of high-end talents, and simultaneous interpretation is in the "golden collar" position with a high price of 3, ~ 7, yuan per day.
From the urgent need for a large number of translators in the early days of reform and opening up, the English talent market has become increasingly saturated. At present, there are a large number of English majors in major universities, but the job market has been compressed again and again. The employment direction of English majors is relatively broad, and most of them enter teaching units, and a small number of them go to the coastal areas to engage in foreign trade practice. For graduate students majoring in English, the employment is not as wide as that of undergraduates. For example, linguistics is mostly engaged in teaching and research. The narrowing of employment is not good news for English majors.
Many English majors choose to take postgraduate courses. On the one hand, they think that they have not learned English well during their undergraduate years, and they want to improve their English level through postgraduate courses. On the other hand, they also want to increase their employment chips. However, this view may not be consistent with reality. Cross-examination postgraduate counseling experts said that the direction of graduate study for English majors is very detailed, and the majority of candidates should find their own majors according to their hobbies and future career plans. In addition, students majoring in English should be versatile. "Being versatile" means not only improving their professional knowledge, but also charging themselves to learn other professional knowledge, not necessarily reaching the level of proficiency, but at least understanding the basic introductory knowledge. In the case that a single knowledge-based talent is becoming increasingly saturated, compound talents are the resources that major enterprises are vying for.
4. Accounting major: the entry salary is very common, and there is a great demand for senior talents.
The characteristics of accounting major are easy to obtain job opportunities in high-growth industries such as finance, and the employment level and salary are high. However, among the current accounting practitioners, the supply of ordinary financial personnel exceeds the demand, but the senior accounting practitioners are very short.
after graduating from capital university of economics and business majoring in accounting, Zhang Shunda started to work in a foreign company. Although he began to prepare for MPAcc courses of certified public accountants this year, he always felt that his height was not enough, and he still needed to study for a postgraduate in master of professional accounting. Because he understands that although the company lacks accounting now, the position is positioned as a senior financial manager. Although the supply exceeds demand in the whole accounting talent market, it is difficult for enterprises to find high-quality financial management talents, which has caused the current situation of "one cold and one hot" in the accounting industry. Because he worked in a foreign company, he focused his attention on MPAcc in university of international business and economics. He not only had the opportunity to get in touch with more "foreign" courses, but also got a double certificate. So he decided to prepare with both hands, with one hand for textual research and one hand for postgraduate study.
another result of textual research is that the threshold of accounting industry is getting higher and higher. In the current accounting profession, the supply of low-level talents exceeds the demand, while the supply of high-level talents exceeds the demand, and the demand gap is still very large. There are many employment channels for accounting graduates, such as accounting firms, state-owned enterprises and banks.
The levels of accounting are very clear. Those who have obtained certificates with large gold content, such as accountants and certified public accountants, have several years' working experience, and only with such conditions can they easily become hot items. Of course, having a diploma from a famous university is even more powerful for employment. On the contrary, if the performance is mediocre and the professional level is not enough, it will be a world of ice and fire, and you may face the embarrassment of not finding a suitable job.
To sum up, there is no absolute hot major, and the so-called hot postgraduate entrance examination major is only an objective phenomenon. Social needs are rich and colorful, and people's personality and value pursuit are diverse. Everyone should find a road sign suitable for their own development. While pursuing your dreams, the postgraduate entrance examination should be based on career development, and it should be more detailed. You should think about the general direction of region, industry and work nature before you act. You should know what the popular majors and occupations are suitable for you, so as to be prepared.
