3、 the problems in current undergraduates vocational guidance, and points out the recommendations and countermeasures to improve vocational guidance and promote undergraduates to get a job at last. Key words: undergraduates; vocational guidance; choice of occupation; obtain employment. In recent years
4、, with the large increase in the student enrollment, the employment situation are becoming serious, many college students is facing an awkward situation that when to 2take up an occupation when to become unemployment. In this situation, the implementation of undergraduates vocational guidance is par
5、ticularly important. The vocational guidance help college students determine the best career goals, select professional learning method for themselves, so as to achieve the vocational desire and the value of life effectively. 1.The demarcation of relevant concepts 1.1 obtain employment The meaning o
6、f obtaining employment, academics have different views and ideas at home and abroad. American sociologist M. Salze believes “Employment is a specific activity possessing marketable value, and a person is engaged in this activity to gain income constantly. The activity determines the peoples social s
7、tatus.” Educationist and philosopher Dewey puts it summarized as “Employment is not other, but an activity people can get the interests from”. The Japanese expert of employments problem Baogu Six Lang believes “Employment is that a labor person contributes to the society continuously by playing indi
8、vidual ability for life”. Most of Chinese scholars believe that the so-called employment refers to the social activities people take part in, and the activities can be relatively stable, having gains and 3specialized classificatory classified. It is a concentrated expression of peoples life-style, f
9、inancial situation, cultural level, behavior pattern and thought sentiment. It is also a universal expression of a persons right, obligation, responsibility, and social position. 1.2 The Vocational Guidance The vocational guidance was born in the end of 19th century, and developed from the beginning
10、 of 20th. The vocational guidance had kinds of title. It was called “Employment Guidance” in Britain and America, “Career Direction” in France, and “Career Guidance” in Japan. Though the title was different, the meaning was consistent in general. The vocational guidance: a generic term of all kinds
11、of meaures and systems to help people step on career path; a process that comprehensive analysis and understanding all kinds of conditions of unempolyments (mainly students)and employments educational level, intelligence, physical strength, personal character, experience, aspiration and the family a
12、nd social environment, occupation post and so on, so as to select appropriate occupation and equal job to accomplish personal vocational direction preferably. 1.3 college students vocational guidance 4In order to help students obtain employment early, colleges and universities conduct all activities
13、 of chairs, special reports, employment forums, career planning, employment psychological counseling etc. with the purpose of conducting undergraduates self-testing, self-understanding. It can promote the development of undergraduates individuation by establishing career goal, make great efforts to
14、obtain employment finally, and achieve their life value and social value. 2.The effect analysis of undergraduates vocational guidance for promoting undergraduates obtain employment 2.1 Vocational guidance can provide exchange platform for both sides of talent supply and demand Colleges and universit
15、ies undergraduates vocational guidance help undergraduates know the methods of how to understand employers employment information, how to acquire information that is beneficial to get a job, and can provide a display platform for employer. Enterprises can broadcast themselves by vocational guidance,
16、 and can be known by more undergraduates. Therefore, Vocational guidance is a platform where undergraduates and enterprises show themselves. 2.2 Strengthening vocational guidance is beneficial to 5undergraduates employment successfully Vocational guidance is the necessary service and the certain pro
17、duct of “autonomously choice of occupation, two-way selection”. It has important theoretical significance and realistic guiding significance to help undergraduates gain employment. Vocational guidance helps undergraduates understand themselves in theory and know more about suitable vocation for them
18、selves in method, makes undergraduates select suitable vocational approach and method easier in measures, points out the objective of a struggle for undergraduates in action. Therefore, vocational guidance helps them avoid taking a roundabout course and obtain employment at an early date, and it is
19、of great signality. 2.3 Strengthening vocational guidance is beneficial to undergraduates development and become a useful person Vocational guidance is an important road to gain knowledge, growth ability, broaden horizon, know self and realize self. In the process of vocational guidance, undergradua
20、tes can know about society, understand enterprise, can discover which aspect of oneself needs improving, the shortcoming of knowledge and skills, according to the needs of society and enterprise. Undergraduates can perfect and develop themslves better, 6thereby. At the same time, undergraduates can
21、make sure their vocational goal early via vocational guidance, make sure struggling method and path early, find a job finally, realize gaining employment, realize themselves. 2.4 Strengthening vocational guidance is beneficial to the reasonable allocation of resources of human talents “Give full sco
22、pe to the talents, make the best use of everything”, is the best allocation of rational using resources. Undergraduates vocational guidance will be in favor of undergraduates choosing vocations that suit their development according to their self conditions, be in favor of undergraduates with differe
23、nt interests, different majors and different characters. It will be more in favor of employer selecting and using talents. 3. Problems in current undergraduates vocational guidance Vocational guidance is an important part of colleges and universities education, is effective means to help undergradua
24、tes understand national policies and guidelines of employment, establish correct sense of choice of occupation, guarantee undergraduates obtaining employment successfully. At present, undergraduates vocational guidance in our country isnt mature enough, is in a condition of fumbling, weakness, 7and
25、has a large gap with sociometric development, talent market establishing, economic globalization, information modernization and students self requirement. 3.1 Paying less attention to vocational guidance results in the requirements of undergraduates hardly satisfied The ideological roots of colleges
26、 and universities not doing their best to undergraduates vocational guidance is having less cognition, having less value, backward perception, understanding deviation on vocational guidance. Though college students vocational guidance has carried out in colleges and universities for many years, the
27、degree of attention, operation potency dimension and financial resources are less than satisfactory. Many colleges and universities just take a walk, as employment departments just hold several employment chairs, start special reports on getting a job. The course of vocational guidance does not have
28、 full-time teacher, and the teachers are not in class. So the college students vocational guidance does not really implement, and has a great distance from the requirements of undergraduates obtaining employment. 3.2 The goal of the vocational guidance unclear, results in the sense of undergraduates
29、 employment have misunderstanding The goal of the vocational guidance is not only the 8starting point of the vocational guidance, but also the end result of the vocational guidance. As because of the late start of the vocational guidance and the less of the necessary theory research, the goal of gui
30、dance has not make clear for long. Most of the vocational guidance teachers only make sure that the vocational guidance is to promote undergraduates obtaining employment in cognition. Though that is a reality motivation, they havent to think deeply on the vocational guidance. All will bring about: m
31、ost of vocational guidance teachers and the undergraduates receiving guidance take the successful employment and enhancing first employment rate as sole purpose, believe “employment rate meeting requirement is OK”: it forms a repeated situation as short-sighted mentality, short-term behavior, taking
32、 service as importance, taking education as unimportance. 3.3 Vocational guidance lacking of continuity, results in undergraduates career planning difficult to carry out The development of undergraduates vocational guidance in our country, proceeds by the continuous promoting of competent department
33、, is a linear thinking and a practice of administration. Undergraduates vocational guidance hasnt adapted the demand of the new situation, while the career 9planning and counseling theory that really fit in the condition of our country hasnt established, which cause the continuity on vocational guid
34、ance theory, mode and method is lacking. At the present stage, the mode of vocational guidance is single, the guidance only rest on the choice of occupation direction in graduate link, and it shows specifically as policy explanation, information publish, skill guidance. It mainly teach basic knowled
35、ge of employment, use the form of spoon-feeding with teaching and learning, speaking and listening to help undergraduates solve problems in obtaining employment, but it lose sight of the way of various modes connected. 4. Suggestions and countermeasures of improving vocational guidance and promoting
36、 undergraduates obtaining employment 4.1 Realizing the change of focus of vocational guidance work The change of focus of vocational guidance work includes the significance of two aspects: first, vocational guidance should turn “end product packaging” to “product design”; second, the work of vocatio
37、nal guidance itself should achieve the leap to career developing counsel. In the past, our vocational guidance work mainly focus on “end product packaging”, its key point mainly in the guidance of job 10application technique. Today, as the change of our higher education from elite type to popular ty
38、pe, the peoples purpose of attending university becomes more and more reality. In order to finding a good job when graduate, many students when rush into the school pay close attention to the problem of employment after several years. In the face of huge employment pressure, many students put their
39、hope on the majors that may bring an ideal job, as a result that theres a strong contrast “top profession” with “unpopular profession”. The existing condition is not only has no help for undergraduates employment, but also will cause many negative effects, makes students with “unpopular” profession
40、more difficult to obtain a job; meanwhile, as equating “top”, “unpopular” to personal future wholly, parts of “top” professional students confused by current better career prospects and ignore the learning and development at the stage of university, thus they set undeserved barrier for the employmen
41、t in the future. Thus it can be seen, under the severe undergraduates employment situation at the present, aimless follow with “top” profession not only cant improve undergraduates “obtain employment”, but also make some students obtain employment even harder. While only depending on “end product packaging”
