In 2024, the words I hear the most are: unemployed, looking for a job, laying off employees, etc.
Whenever I open the apps of a certain sound, a certain blog, and a certain station, those sighs and struggles about unemployment come like a tide, and the posts are full of confusion and helplessness.
Even people in the workplace will inevitably feel a biting chill.
Now that it is graduation season again, the unemployed have not yet found a suitable job, and they have to "grab" jobs with some college students, so you can imagine how fierce the competition is.
In 2024, the job market across the country will be even colder than the cold winter wax moon.
Now, it is the college graduation season again, and those unemployed who are still struggling on the road to job hunting are now "grabbing" jobs with college students.
According to the report, in 2024, the number of college graduates in mainland China will be nearly 11.79 million, an increase of 210,000 year-on-year, which is unprecedented.
Let's take a look at another set of data, in 2023, BOSS Zhipin will add 49 million new users, which is the most since its establishment. In 2024, there will be 14.61 million new registrations.
In this situation, it goes without saying how fierce the competition for jobs is, right?
The job market in 2024 is like a frozen lake, silent and depressed, making people feel unprecedented cold and pressure.
Share a real case of a real person close to me:
I know a 35-year-old friend engaged in IT software development, who used to work in Shenzhen, with a salary of 15,000 yuan per month, and after being optimized by the company in July last year, he went back to his hometown with compensation for 1 month.
I thought that I had ten years of work experience and could quickly find a suitable job in Chengdu, but I didn't expect that the resume I sent out would sink into the sea, and there were few opportunities for interviews every month.
Sometimes, it takes a week or two to wait for an interview call.
I finally waited for the interview, and when I walked to the company, I found that only one person was recruited for a position, but I didn't expect that there were dozens of job seekers waiting for the interview at the same time.
After the interview, the most common thing I said was: go home and wait for the notice.
One, two, three...... I still can't wait for the offer, anxious and confused. In desperation, I had to become a delivery boy.
Every day when you go out early and return late, you can earn thousands of dollars a month.
He is a microcosm of the tens of millions of unemployed people.
Many college students can't find a job, so they go to an electronics factory to screw and work on a construction site...... No matter how high your education is, you still can't find a satisfying job.
Truth be told, there's no job you can do for a lifetime.
Write at the end
The wave of unemployment in 2024 is indeed chilling.
Not only is it difficult to find a job, but it is also easy to bring a blow to people's hearts, if a person can't find a job for a year and a half, he will really be depressed and confused.
In the face of such a grim situation, I hope that each of us will not always stare at the bustling office buildings in big cities, but also pay more attention to other work, and do not hang ourselves from a tree.
Rather than finding a job, we should think more about how to plan for our future careers.
In this rapidly changing world, the most important thing in this era is work, but flexibility.
In the face of the wave of unemployment, we must be fearless, dare to challenge these setbacks, and believe that these difficulties are only temporary, and if you are strong, it will be strong, and if you are weak, it will be weak.
Everybody has to come on.
