A Good Industry Does Not Mean A Good Job

In the process of career planning consultation, there will always be such inquirer: he is not optimistic about his career, and hopes that career planners can give him a "clear path" and tell him which line he can take to get a ride on the development of the industry. In other words, he wants his career planner to find a golden rice bowl for him.

If the industry has its ups and downs and changes in its occupation, how can one choose his career accordingly? No one can make an accurate judgement of the development of the specific industry absolutely. If he can, he can buy stocks.

But the trend is there.

Twenty years ago, everyone was very familiar with and keen on the word "golden rice bowl", which meant that a career could bring "promising future", "adequate food and clothing" and "beautiful life".

For example, be a civil servant, do flight attendants, enter schools, public hospitals and other institutions, enter finance, IT and so on.

。

Now, are these "golden rice bowls" still shining? Taking civil servants as an example, in the 2013 national civil service recruitment, many job descriptions are called "the most bitter rice bowl": they need "year-round business trip", "need night duty" and "need to often go to the rescue and disaster relief scene."

Even ordinary jobs are no longer what they expected before: idle and high salaries.

"A cup of tea, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper sitting for half a day" civil service work does not exist in many units.

Stewardess, taxi driver, large state owned worker, even when I was a child, I was very envious.

To do an enviable job, today's career is quite different from what it used to be.

The rise and fall of industry is a normal social development.

An industry will slowly enter the Chaoyang period from the dawn of the beginning, gradually mature, and finally decline.

At the initial stage of development, an industry is full of uncertainties, uncertain and uncertain when to develop.

Although many people can do "post Zhuge" with the method of backstepping, the people who initially promoted the development of an industry must have extraordinary courage.

Do not say a big industry, that is, some specific formats or products, such as group buying, micro-blog, electricity providers and so on.

Once entered the Chaoyang period, it became a favorite cake.

Various investments are pouring in, and the market share is expanding rapidly. Competitors will also increase substantially because of the profit. The demand for talent will expand and the team will expand rapidly.

After several rounds of shuffling, it will gradually stabilize.

The development of a stable sunrise industry must be the place where many job seekers are scramble for. In these industries, the rising passageway is smooth, so we are more capable. If we have strong learning ability, are good at developing and willing to undertake, there will be many opportunities for career development.

IT and the Internet belong to this kind of industry.

In addition, more stable industries, such as publishing, manufacturing, law, energy and other industries, have gradually entered the mature industry from Chaoyang, and even some specific formats have fallen into the setting sun, such as postal services.

The characteristics of these industries are that career development is more dependent on physical strength and relationship. The prospects for personal development are more definite and less likely. If resources can be relied upon, they will be relatively stable.

Once entering the market, there is the risk of being changed at any time.

What are the reasons for the change of industry? I think there are two reasons: one is related to the reform of the system, from the planned economy to the market economy, and the reform of the political system will bring about the rise and fall of some industries. The other is the change of technology and public demand brought about by social and economic development. The former is like the communications industry, the latter favors the green, environmental protection and health products.

The development of some industries is to make use of them.

Updates and product iterations are constantly linked to the sunrise industry.

Under the general trend of the industry, as an individual, it is very difficult to have a decisive impact on the rise and fall of the industry. Even the eldest of the industry can not be said to be in the development of the industry.

If a person falls into the pursuit of "good industry", he will follow the "good" industry to constantly change his goals, pursue the trend blindly, lack of continuity in personal development, and eventually be exhausted.

How can we ensure that the rolling wheels of the industry will not be crushed? As for all of us, we need to be clear about our pursuit, so that we will not simply bind our fate to the "good" industries identified by others. On the other hand, we should be clear about our core strengths. Besides some industry related R & D and production posts, the core advantages will never disappear as the industry changes.

In fact, it provides a kind of "random employment" that can adapt to the "right job" even though the industry is changing.

This seemingly simple "randomness" needs to enhance two abilities: one is the ability to migrate, the ability to migrate in one's previous occupations; the other is the ability to integrate resources, which is wasted in the absence of experience, and the key is to integrate and integrate into one's own direction.
