Hi, I’m Casaba reading for 1,750 consecutive days. This is a personal #154 blog post. Give it a thumbs up if you like it.

background

Before, I said THAT I would share something with younger students, but I didn’t have a good idea about the specific content at that time. Therefore, when I recalled what I needed a person who had worked for several years to share, I had an idea about the pit and experience I had stepped in during the transition from a student to a professional person, so that I could avoid some detours. So I summed up my personal experience and ideas here as preliminary materials and rehearsals to share.

Since the sharing is expected to last 1.5 hours, the article will be divided into three parts. The content involved in this article is the first part. The main content

  • A few things to prepare for graduation
  • Analysis of employment direction
  • Employment choice to consider the key issues
  • The main differences between the working age and the student age
  • conclusion

Here are a few things you need to prepare for graduation

Know yourself

Knowing yourself may be the hardest thing in the world, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do it. It should be done often. Everyone has a different self in his heart, but this self is often not repeated with the real self. There is a very rough way to know yourself, that is, to take a personality test, a lot of free fees, more than ten dollars and thirty minutes can be done, very convenient. I personally recommend the MBTI16 personality test. It may feel out of step with how you normally feel about yourself, or it may feel like the person you want to be when you do it, but either way it’s instructive. Remember that taking this test is not a verdict on your fate or your life, but a way to find out who you really are. I’m a good example. When I learned I was an INTJ personality and looked it up, it all worked out. Can let you later decision have certain support, encounter problems do not have too regret, can be more calm to face their own choices. The better process of getting to know yourself is to reflect on your experience alone, talk to others, and then think about it. It’s a continuous process, it’s not a static state but a dynamic process, and knowing yourself will drive your own transformation so it’s a lifelong project.

Plan your career

Establish a mindset of continuous growth

Enjoy your last moments of freedom

Travel is a good choice to pay attention to the control of diet, personal crazy dinner in the graduation stage, weight soared 10KG

Employment choice to consider the key issues

It is no exaggeration to say that the choice of employment is one that will affect you for the rest of your life.

Analysis of employment direction

Classification of nature

There are essentially two types of jobs: jobs that cost time and jobs that cost resources. Although time is essentially a resource, it is better to distinguish between the two because they are fundamentally different. Typical categories: Time cost of work:

  • The programmer
  • Factory workers
  • Algorithm engineer
  • Work at the expense of faculty resources:
  • The company’s boss
  • investors
  • The new landlord
  • Monopoly resource owner

The direction of classification

In fact, the world is big, but the employment direction is no more than a few:

  • Government agencies,
  • State-owned enterprises
  • A foreign company
  • Private companies
  • Private small business
  • Continues to pursue advanced studies
  • freelancer
  • entrepreneurship

The average life span of the Fortune 500 is only 40 years, so it’s unlikely that anyone will stay in a single job at one company for the rest of their life.

How to choose employment direction

Imagine where you want your life to be 10 years from now

Technical direction

Typical jobs

Programmers, UI designers, algorithm designers, other industry workers, etc

Daily work

To complete assigned tasks or solve specific problems, work overtime frequently and deal with unexpected situations

Do not good

I feel exhausted after work every day. I can’t sleep well at night. I worry about being laid off every day. Family conflicts abound, and spouses inadvertently express dissatisfaction with their financial situation. I am busy every day. I have no time to stay with my children and family. I have been working overtime for a long time and my body has been in sub-health for a long time.

Well done

Feel full of challenge work every day, work is not easy, there are a group of partners that can help you solve the problem, to work every day needs to be divided into time for everybody to make an appointment to solve the problem, we have not solve the problem is the first time to come to you to discuss or to ask for help, the boss often find you talk, understand your idea, And you think of your relationship with your boss as a partnership, not a supervisor. Often get referrals from headhunters or old friends to see if there’s any interest in a particular company or position. You’ve also been asked if you can speak at an industry conference, etc. You can set aside dedicated time each day to spend with your family and still be healthy.

The management direction

Typical jobs

Project managers, various leaders

Daily work

Review reports, data, observations, meetings, thinking, writing reports

Well done

Unite as one, superior think you do well, always want to talk to you, worried that you ran with people, subordinates feel that follow you stem have a future, do not worry

Do not good

Always have thief person want to harm me, superior scold you silly you also dare not talk, let you stem a very silly thing you also dare not ask why, prevent others to think you are more stupid, subordinate feel follow you stem have no future, always consider how to jump ship.

Public Service Orientation

Typical jobs

Civil servants, etc.

Daily work

Report writing, proposal writing, meeting, discussion, research

The scientific research direction

Typical jobs

Teachers at all levels

Daily work

Thinking, reading, teaching, practicing, you’re all familiar with that

Entrepreneurial orientation

Don’t know much about it

Identity changes along with other changes

Change of principal responsibility

The big difference is that you are responsible for every decision and action you make, whereas in school your teachers and school always protect you from the wind and rain. If you’re not doing a good job, I’m sorry, you might actually get paid less. You did a safety violation, I’m sorry, $5,000, straight out of your pay, not enough? Nothing installment deduction. Leave forgot to mention the list, sorry, can only according to absenteeism processing, as for the boss can give you a little, that hey hey hey

Result oriented

While the process is sometimes important, the result is more important

The results of your work are directly related to the results of the organization, so if you are not doing well, you will be pointed out, even if not mentioned at the time.

Even if you work hard for two days and still can’t solve the problem, that’s really a pity, can only say you worked hard.

A month of overtime with your team may not be as productive as another colleague’s father making a phone call to a client, so the company awards your colleague the best new employee award. After all, it is expected that your colleague’s father will provide follow-up support.

The part that works with people has exploded

Your chances of being a lone Wolf at work will almost certainly disappear, as every job requires you to connect with others.

conclusion

Before you graduate, I hope you have more time to think than before. This period of time will largely determine the path of your future life. Besides, if you want to do technology, you must be determined to be a surfer, through your own continuous learning and progress, step on the tide of technology, out of their wonderful life.
