During the graduation season, many graduates who have just entered the society will face many "firsts", renting a house, going to work, socializing with colleagues... Many people will feel some "discomfort".

Recently, a survey of 1334,57 newcomers in the workplace conducted by the Social Survey Center of China Youth Daily (wenjuan.com) showed that 9.71% of the interviewed newcomers felt that what they learned in school did not match the actual work needs, and 7.<>% of the interviewed newcomers expected employers to strengthen pre-employment training.

Among the new employees surveyed, 30.2% are about to join the company, and 69.8% are already employed.

57.9% of the interviewed newcomers feel that what they have learned does not match their job needs

Shu Peng, who is about to join a financial company in Shanghai, feels that when they first enter the society, many graduates cannot get rid of the thinking of students, and are accustomed to having others responsible for everything. But in society, everyone is responsible for their own affairs, and if there is a problem, they must find a way to solve it as soon as possible, "to become a person who can carry things." I think it's a point that I rarely get to when I was a student."

What problems are college students prone to encounter when they first enter society? In the survey, 57.9% of the interviewed newcomers feel that what they learn in school do not match the actual work needs, and the work pressure is high, 52.1% of the interviewed newcomers feel that the interpersonal relationship in the workplace is complicated and unadaptable, and 50.1% of the interviewed newcomers find it difficult to establish a new social circle.

Yang Minhui, who works in Beijing's publishing industry, recalls that when she first graduated, many things were a mess and she suffered a lot of losses. "My self-care skills are poor, and everything is arranged when I was in school. After working, I encountered many problems in renting a house, eating, and making friends. ”

Zhang Yuxin, who works in human resources in the construction industry in Chongqing, believes that one of the biggest problems of newcomers is that they cannot make the identity transition from "I am a student" to "I am an employee". "When a student turns in their homework, the teacher may give advice to take it back and continue to revise it. However, as an employee, the results of the work may have to be directly faced by the customer, and if there is a problem, it will bring losses to the company."

In addition, 41.6% of the interviewed newcomers in the workplace feel that there is a cognitive bias in society and cannot integrate well, 34.8% do not adapt to a person's life, 27.9% of people are psychologically and economically difficult to be independent in a short period of time, 27.7% feel that living alone, travel and other self-protection awareness is not enough, 27.2% feel that renting, consumption, etc. are prone to traps, 23.8% of people say that self-care ability is poor and do not take care of themselves.

"I can't cook, so I order takeout every day. The house was also not well chosen, and I lived in a north-facing second bedroom with poor lighting. Good friends have left Beijing, and their social circles have not opened. So the first few months were very depressing. Yang Minhui said that when she did not graduate, she felt that it was a natural process to find a job, leave campus and enter the society, but in fact, it required a lot of preparation.

In the survey, we hope that colleges and universities will strengthen guidance and support in career planning training (62.4%), social skills training (57.0%), and professional skills training (54.2%). This is followed by fraud prevention training (47.2%), mental health counseling (46.5%), safety knowledge training (44.7%), health management knowledge training (28.0%), and life skills training (26.0%).

"When I first graduated, many people around me, including myself, had the experience of getting a fitness card pitted." Yang Minhui said that there are many scams now, and I hope that colleges and universities will remind college students more in these aspects, and at the same time strengthen training and guidance on physical and mental health management.

Shu Peng hopes that universities will regularly organize lectures related to workplace experience, "In the past, most of the alumni who were invited were successful alumni, and it would be of great help if alumni who worked hard in the workplace could regularly share their workplace experience with their classmates."

"Some graduates don't understand what five insurances and one housing fund are, and they don't understand how important the ratio of five insurances and one housing fund is to them." Dong Yu, who works in the ecological operation position of a technology company, hopes that universities can set up relevant courses to train on the salary structure and distribution ratio of enterprises, "otherwise we will easily step on the pit in society."

71.7% of the interviewed newcomers expect employers to strengthen pre-employment training

The company that Shupeng will join has a month-long pre-job training, where all newcomers will take classes together to learn some job-related knowledge and operational skills, as well as icebreaker games, so that everyone can quickly get acquainted. "Our company also has a good tradition called 'old with new', where newcomers will have their own coaches to teach things at work. In the future, I was assigned to projects, and there were also people who took care of the new arrivals, so I was not too worried about the difficulty of getting started with the new job. ”

To help college students better adapt to society, 71.7% of the interviewed newcomers in the workplace expect employers to strengthen pre-employment training and let college students adapt to work as soon as possible, 61.0% of respondents suggest that college students carry out self-learning of business ability in a short period of time according to job requirements, 60.6% of respondents recommend cultivating one or two healthy hobbies to enrich personal life, 57.8% of respondents recommend participating in social practice and accumulating social experience in school, and 32.5% of respondents hope that families will give appropriate support to help college students learn to live independently.

Zhang Yuxin suggested that college students who have just entered the workplace learn to adjust themselves in time. In school, everyone may have a general career plan, but when you really enter the society, you may find that what you want to do is not suitable for you, and at this time, you must seriously think about it, readjust, and find the most realistic career plan.

Yang Minhui believes that parents should pay attention to cultivating students' self-care ability, so that they can learn to live and be able to take care of themselves. Colleges and universities should also guide students to have a correct understanding of society and the workplace, and avoid a large psychological gap due to lack of understanding.
