On the Significance of Career Planning to College Students
Career planning can make college students more clear about their life goals. There is an old saying in China: "Aim high", which is usually used to encourage young people who have just started their lives to set up lofty aspirations at the beginning. Career planning is a continuous process of all career-related behaviors and activities and related attitudes, values and aspirations in a person's life, and it is also a process of realizing career, position change and work ideal in a person's life.
First, career planning can explore self-potential and enhance personal strength.
An effective career planning meeting: guide you to correctly understand your personality characteristics, existing and potential resource advantages, help you reposition your value and make it continue to increase in value; Guide you to compare and analyze your comprehensive advantages and disadvantages; Make you set clear career development goals and career ideals; Guide you to evaluate the gap between personal goals and reality; Guide you to look forward to the career orientation combined with reality, and search for or discover new or potential career opportunities; Make you learn how to use scientific methods and take feasible steps and measures to continuously enhance your professional competitiveness and realize your professional goals and ideals.
Second, career planning can enhance the purpose and planning of development and improve the chances of success.
Career development should be planned and purposeful, and we should not blindly "hit the Universiade". Many times, our career setbacks are due to poor career planning. A good plan is the beginning of success. As the old saying goes, everything is established in advance, and if it is not planned, it will be abolished.
Third, career planning can improve the ability to cope with competition.
Today's society is in an era of change, and fierce competition is everywhere. Natural selection and survival of the fittest are very competitive, especially after China's entry into WTO. If you want to stand out from the fierce competition and be invincible, you must design your own career plan. Only in this way can we know fairly well and not fight unprepared battles. However, many recent college graduates don't sit down and make their own career plans first, but run around with resumes to apply for jobs, hoping to find a good job with luck. As a result, a lot of time, energy and money were wasted. Finally, I lamented that the recruiting unit is as blind as a bat and can't "know the hero with an eye", and lamented that my hero is useless. These college graduates do not fully realize the significance and importance of career planning. They believe that knowledge, performance, patience, relationships, eloquence and other conditions are the key to finding an ideal job. They think that career planning is purely an armchair strategist and a waste of time. If you have time, you might as well go to two more recruitment units. This is a wrong idea. In fact, it is much better, more economical and more scientific to plan one's career in advance, sharpen one's knife and not miss the woodcutter, and put one's job-hunting activities into practice after having a clear understanding and clear goals.
From the perspective of human resources, employers pay great attention to whether the career planning of re-employed employees is transparent and consistent with the development of the company. A graduate briefly described his career plan in the job application materials-"I am willing to start from the most basic work, spend three to five years getting familiar with the business and mastering the corresponding experience, and then challenge the position of senior supervisor". Although his performance was average among many competitors, he succeeded in applying for the job. Only a few job seekers will write their own future development plans. These plans make people feel that the job seekers' intention to apply for a job is well thought out. Even if his career plan is only five years or even shorter, the employer is willing to hire such a person with clear goals and transparent planning. According to the senior human resources manager of P&G Beijing Control Technology Co., Ltd., the company recruits about 6,543.8+000 fresh graduates in China every year, and most of those who planned their careers early have now become directors, deputy directors or senior managers.
Therefore, from the moment college students enter school, they should be trained, guided and trained in career planning to lay a solid foundation for their future career development.
Clever principle: 1. Performance indicators must be specific.
2. Performance indicators must be measurable.
3. Performance indicators must be achievable.
4. Performance indicators are real and can be proved and observed (realistic).
5. Performance indicators must have a clear time base.
Both the work objectives of the team and the performance objectives of employees must conform to the above principles, and five principles are indispensable.
Career planning can make life have goals, and goals make life meaningful; Career planning can help individuals understand the employment situation, be prepared for danger in times of peace, and awaken the consciousness of career planning; Career planning can help individuals make correct career choices and find their own career goals; Career planning contributes to personal professional ability and quality, and enhances self-efficacy; Career planning helps to grasp the key points and increase the possibility of success.
