英文版大学生就业趋势调查报告

Topic: Report of college students’ employment tendencyBackgroundOver those years, many college students had some employment problems. They always thought it’s a most important choice for them. We witnessed a rapid development in industry, agriculture, science and technology in China. But the pressure is huge for them at the same time.So we think it’s necessary to research this problem, and it’s meaningful to find what is the students employment tendency.My studyAt first I checked some information from some books and elected some questions which the society focus on. And I found some old questionnaires on the internet. Then I collected these questionnaires, summarized statistics and at last I made out our form. What I most want to achieve from this investigation are the employment trends of college students, the methods they often adopt when they face employment pressure and if there exists obvious gender discrimination when companies choose employees.LimitationMost of my friends who I asked them to do the questionnaires are English major students, maybe they will consider about their major when they do this questionnaires.So it may can not stand for all the college students.MethodFirstly，I made questionnaires in the computer concerned with employment. Then I distributed them to our my friends and classmates. After they finished doing them, I took them back and get conclusion from their answers.Research Questions1. Do you think gender has impact on applying for jobs?2. In your point of view, which of the following abilities will be the advantage when you look for a job?3.Which part is the most attractive one when you find jobs?2.2 The participantsOur major participants are sophomore and junior students coming from electrical engineering and business administration and a little part from freshman. The average age of the students is twenty one. It’s old enough for themselves to decide what they will do or what they want to become in the future. 30% of students from electrical engineering are female, and 70% are male. 74% of students from business administration are female, and 26% are male.2.3 Our detail proceduresFirst we have determined our major items of our questionnaire many weeks ago, and there are three major items of the questionnaire. The fist one is we want to learn students’employment trends of Shandong University. The second item is what students want to achieve from university and their future career. And the last one is what adds students employment pressure. The questionnaire were made and modified by our group and there were also a few questions we extracted from the internet.We administered questionnaires at the twelfth week. Most of them were finished in classroom, but there were also some finished in dormitory and on line. Before we asked the students answered the questionnaires, we had stressed that they must answer them honestly, unless we would cancel their questionnaires. And we indeed found some students’ questionnaires were notup to our requirement, so we did with them as we had told.We finally collected 133 effective questionnaires.2.4 Data analysisⅠ：students of college of electrical engineeringⅡ：sophomore of college of managementⅢ：frosh of college of managementFrom the result of this survey, 50% of students of electrical engineering choosing this major are mostly for the reason of good job opportunity. On the contrary, students of business management engineering more tend to potential employment and their interest. Nearly all the students of both majors are content of their learning subjects. When referring to their future employment expectations, most students hope their job will be more suit to their major, and there are also a few people preferring a more challenging job, because they more value their ability no matter what they will do in the future.After graduation, most students will choose to continue their studies or directly go to work, very few students choose to start a business or study abroad. The sophomore and junior students of the School of Electrical Engineering and the School of Management who continue their studies and directly go to work are accounted for about 50%,but the proportion of management offreshmen who choose to continue studying reach 85%.But for the sophomores may have a desire to society, so the percentage of students who choose to continue to study decline. Although no freshmen of electrical engineering polled, We conclude that proportion of freshmen of electrical engineering who choose to continue their study after graduation would be high too. And to those who choose to further study, most of them think highly educated for their professional will have great influence. Of course the reason why many students go to get a master degree is for the love of this professional and hope to get more professional knowledge. Few people thinks of their professional prospect is bad, and only to go to graduate school to get higher education, can they get a better job.According to the chart above, career stability, job prospects, salary and job interest are the common things students considering in employment. When we investigate intention of employment, students of electrical engineering more tend to choose state-owned enterprises, and 21% feel like choosing scientific research institution. But when we look back at the management major, we are surprised they almost differ from our major. More than half students of the major will go to private enterprises or sino-foreign joint ventures, there is also a large part deciding to start their own business. At the aspect of salary, students of both major will request a high payment of more than 5000￥per month. Because of the potential of open coastal cities and good living situations, people more tend to choose to work in there, and there are also a few people choose to international cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen. Only a little part will come back to small cities to repay their hometown.It has long been a problem that women have serious discri mination in profession. It’s common that men have more advantages in finding jobs, especially in technological college, such as college of Electrical Engineering. And in college of management, 60% of freshmen think men are much easier to get a job than women in their major. What’s more,there are 90%of sophomores holding the same view. It’s unfair that women are tough to be employed. And thereare other problems about the employment of graduates.1.More than a half students think graduates have too high expectations of their profession toaccept the ordinary job.2.There are about 50% students holding the thought that some companies have so high standardthat graduates can’t get the job.3.The rest of the students think government and school have not played an active role, whichdon’t offer enough information to graduates.1.As to our state encourages graduates to start their own business, more than 50% studentsthink it’s a challenge and opportunity to improve their ability and realize their dream, few has never thought of it. So we can see that challenging themselves is more popular with the young generation.2.When faced with employment pressure, 30% students will look for comfort from theirfriends or family, and 30% of them will try to work hard to add the opportunity of finding a good job, few people will pour out pressure to their coacher or classmates. What we can gain from the data is that on the one hand college students’ ability of solve problems is improving, but on the other hand we can’t deny they much more believe their family comparing with classmates and coacher. But they forget when in college the most helpful people are just their classmates and coacher.3.Most students suppose the most useful methods to solve employment problems are thatuniversities can provide with better guidance and service toward employment. More specifically, colleges can offer courses about careers guidance and planning, collect and settle social information of the talent market, publish the present situation of graduates and so on. 4.Another useful way to solve the problem of employment is that we should valuedeveloping our own ability. From the view of students, the employment units most care of graduates’ synthetic ability and professional skills. But in fact, it is not reality for employment units to find your synthetic ability is good or bad, the most effective of prove of your ability is yet your grade in college. So during the university, we should not only pay attention to our own interest and professional skills, but keeping a good grade can also add the chance of getting a good job.Part three: our discriptionThe purpose we do this investigate is not just to achieve some data, compare with students of business administration ,find distinctions and get our advantages in employment. We should learnfrom the distinctions and find where our shortages are in our employment psychology.First, compared with students of business administration, our students more tend to choose jobs of high payment and stability. So metimes working in this area we can’t deny it lacks challenging and it’s no use for help develop our ability. Although the employment situation is well today, no one can ensure what our future situation will be. When facing employment pressure, maybe we should learn from students of business administration and choose jobs from primate companies or foreign companies. We believe our students can do better than students from other majors. Then our students are common with highly expectations to their future careers, though we can’t say students from our university indeed have the ability to get a good job. And because of lacking completely understanding of the company and the job, it can also add our psychological burdens. So we should not only adjust our own employment psychology, but we need convenient conditions offered from our school.That’s all.。
