Liu Zhixi (pseudonym) is a graduate of this year's master's degree. She has left the campus and is still looking for a job.
"Recently, I have been submitting resumes, but the response rate is relatively low, only about 10%. I don't know which link went wrong."
Zhang Xiaomin (pseudonym), an undergraduate student at a general university in the west, said frankly that there was a lot of trouble in preparing a resume, "I don’t know what to write and what not to write, and my experience is not rich, so I can’t write anything at all. ".
The survey found that 71.2% of respondents have trouble making resumes.
Only 12.1% of the respondents said they were not troubled, and 16.7% said they were not good.
Interactive analysis found that 74.9% of college students surveyed have trouble making resumes.

In terms of resume production, which aspects bother you the most?
59.3% of the interviewees said they had no experience and did not know how to start, 54.6% of the interviewees thought it was a lack of experience matching their job search intentions, and 53.3% of the interviewees said they did not know how to polish and beautify their resumes.
Others include: no clear job application intention (41.9%), ignorance of the resume screening mechanism (34.3%), etc.
Because of the relatively low response rate, Liu Zhixi recently reflected on whether there was a problem with his resume.
She confessed that she was not well prepared for job hunting, did not have a decent internship experience, and did not have an advantage in school and grades. “When writing a resume, there is not much to write, and there is a lack of things that can make recruiters shine. Content".
Liu Zhixi feels that ignorance of the selection mechanism of resumes makes it difficult to grasp the key points when making resumes. “I don’t know what kind of resumes recruiters expect to see and how to make them more targeted.
Li Waner (pseudonym) works as HR in a private company and is responsible for recruitment.
She said that school recruitment and social recruitment are two different evaluation systems. “For social recruitment, it mainly depends on the job-seekers’ work experience and stability. For school recruitment, it mainly depends on the job applicant’s school and personal qualities. Personal qualities include learning. Ability, skills mastered, internship experience, etc.".
She believes that for college students, schools and majors are constants, and it is difficult to make changes. Therefore, they must work hard on variables, "polishing their professional skills, stepping out of school, increasing experience, and preparing more for job hunting."
93.0% of college students surveyed need support in resume production
Zhang Xiaomin is looking forward to receiving support and help in the production of resumes. "I hope that the school will offer relevant tutoring courses. It is best to have a professional teacher to help us read the resumes and teach us how to make the resumes more beautiful and avoid minefields."
According to the survey, 87.9% of respondents indicated that they need support in the production of resumes.
93.0% of college students surveyed said so.
What kind of support do you need in resume production?
76.5% of the interviewees want to share their experience with seniors who have successfully applied for a job; 60.1% of the interviewees believe that the school should strengthen cooperation with the company and increase pertinence; 59.2% of the interviewees hope that the school will offer resume production courses/lectures.
Liu Zhixi remembered that when she was in the first year of graduate school, the teacher in charge of postgraduate work in the college asked every student to submit a resume and put forward suggestions for amendments. She felt that this method was quite good. On the one hand, you can see your shortcomings from your resume, improve your abilities in time, enrich your experience, and better cope with the job hunting season."
But she also frankly said that the teacher does not have much experience, is not very specific, and relies solely on the teacher's personal interest and lacks continuity. "I hope that the school can open relevant elective courses and follow up on the relevant demands of students in a timely manner."
Li Wan'er believes that the courses and lectures offered by the school are the experience of others, which may not be suitable for everyone.
The most important thing is for college students to step out of campus and try boldly.
"If you don't experience it in the actual environment, it's hard to really improve just by listening to others' sharing."
