When you are a teenager, you "grow up" into a miracle
On November 1, according to media reports, the movie "Miracle Stupid Child" starring Yi Yangqianxi will compete for the "Best International Film" of this year's Oscar on behalf of the mainland.
Yi Yangqianxi's starting point is not the highest, but his achievements today can be described as second-to-second peers. Several well-received and popular film and television works have allowed Yi Yangqianxi to break through the label of idol, successfully go out of the circle, and win the recognition of passers-by other than fans. In other words, the road is getting wider and wider.
All of this is indispensable to his career development planning!

The difference between the monthly salary of international students is 2,000 and 20,000,
Start here!
In the interview, I believe that you will often encounter the interviewer asking you to talk about "What career plan do you have?" What kind of person do you want to be in the future? ”
A clear career plan not only allows you to clarify which direction you should strive to increase your strength during the autumn recruitment, but can even determine your development in the next few years. Is it far beyond your peers, or far behind.
Study abroad parties after graduation season should consider their career planning. For example, when doing career planning, you should have a long-term stable idea according to your personality, preferences, expertise, opportunities, the opinions of others should be comprehensively referenced, and you should have a rational decision.
The situation of international students may be slightly more complicated than that of domestic students. First, it is unfamiliar with the development trend of the domestic industry, such as some popular industries in foreign countries are a little unsatisfied with the domestic industry, or the domestic development trend has been like a sunset industry.
Second, if you study for a master's degree abroad, you will gradually form a plan for your future work direction, but once you return to China, you will find that it is a little inconsistent with the previous work direction, or even the opposite.
Therefore, as a qualified international student job seeker, you should learn to focus on the future, make career planning for yourself, improve yourself in which aspects, and what skills to learn, which will be conducive to your own development.

How to do a good career development plan?
Remember these three points!
Career planning = workplace positioning + goal setting + execution path.
The most feared thing about a career is to choose a declining industry that you don't like, that is not suitable for your ability and talent. This is not a career, but a "career cliff".
Find your niche in the workplace
It is to analyze your interests and abilities according to market demand, and find a career that suits you.
You may ask: if both kinds of jobs have market value, one likes it but has little ability, and the other has average interest but strong ability, how to choose?
It depends on whether you are currently in adversity or good times. In times of adversity, it is best to choose the one with strong ability and deepen interest; When the wind is smooth, you should choose your own strong interests and cultivate your ability.
Don't dwell on what's the best job, what's right for you is the best.
Set stage goals and focus on doing things in stages
Now that the industry is changing rapidly, we can't set goals overnight. This is where career goals need to be set in stages. In each phase, what we do every day should aim at this goal.
The focus of the stage goal is on the multi-stage planning of small steps and fast running. Each stage must be adjusted in time according to internal and external conditions, which can greatly avoid the "industry is not working" scenario dilemma at the beginning. If your industry becomes a sunset industry in five years, then you need to readjust your career plan and see if your likes are going to make concessions to market demand.
At each stage, by understanding the development of the industry, market trends, and changes in personal ability, we must make timely adjustments, estimate our future career risks and opportunities, and plan in advance.
Translate goals into concrete measures to implement
No matter how excellent the career planning is, if you don't follow it, it's all a fake on paper. After thinking about the career orientation and determining the stage goals, the next step is to find out their own gaps and transform the goals into specific measures for implementation.

comb the career roadmap,
Make up the gap with others!
Each career goal has its own career roadmap.
At McKinsey, for example, undergraduates typically start as analysts and rise to manager positions in two or three years. After that, he was slowly promoted to project manager, associate director and director.
When formulating the industry path, there is a very useful method called benchmarking management. You can observe those colleagues who are higher than you, where are their strengths in different dimensions? List them one by one, look at the gap between yourself and them, and then make up for it little by little.
In the case of McKinsey, there are three competency dimensions that are the most important.
● CQ: Can you put the resources at hand to good use?
RQ: How are your relationships with your customers?
● IQ: What is your IQ?
To put it simply, IQ corresponds to living well, CQ corresponds to patience, and RQ corresponds to likability.
So how big is the gap between you and your goal in these three dimensions? What ways can you make up for it? These are the things you will do in the next stage.
At the same time, understand that you should benchmark not growth time, but growth metrics. Some people may say, others appreciate in two years, how can I still be stuck here after spending three years?
In fact, there is no need to be too anxious, because everyone's growth path is different. There is more than one road to the end, some are fast, some are slow, some are straight and some are curved, and everyone can have their own road map.
The ultimate meaning of career planning is to understand yourself, plan what you are suitable for, and implement it.
Career planning is by no means as simple as moving up a position in a company, you need to run yourself like a product. Only by constantly upgrading and iterating can we improve our market value and achieve the ideal promotion path.
