Graduation, Synonym of Unemployment?

For many years, especially after the financial crisis in 2008, the employment of college students has been brought to public attention. Under the severe employment situation, job-hunting is being a more tough challenge for graduates. Therefore, we often hear that graduation is the synonym of unemployment, which brings great anxiety to graduates. But is this really the case? As far as I am concerned, graduation is not the synonym of unemployment.

多年以來，尤其是2008年經(jīng)濟(jì)危機(jī)過后，大學(xué)生就業(yè)已經(jīng)成為了公共關(guān)注的問題。在嚴(yán)峻的就業(yè)形勢下，求職成為了大學(xué)生面臨的艱難挑戰(zhàn)。因此，我們經(jīng)常聽到畢業(yè)等于失業(yè)這樣的話，給畢業(yè)生帶來了很大的焦慮。但是情況真的是這樣的嗎？在我看來，畢業(yè)不等同于失業(yè)。

There’s no doubt that today’s labor market is not what it was years ago, and the advantages of college graduates are not so superior. Therefore, the first thing we have to do is having a clear understanding of the changes in the situation and shift our psychology and expectation. Control our expected salary in a reasonable bound. Besides, chances are always for those people who are prepared adequately. Because of the prosperous economy and improving employment markets, there still are plenty of opportunities, but only those who are well prepared can make use of them to achieve their purposes. Furthermore, hold a positive attitude towards employment. It is the firtst step that costs troublesome. Job-hunting is not an easy task and we may be refused by employer, but we can’t be discouraged. We always should be positive and confident to ourselves.

毫無疑問，如今的就業(yè)市場不再是幾年前的樣子，大學(xué)生的優(yōu)勢也不是那么優(yōu)越。因此，我們要做的第一件事就是對當(dāng)今情況的變化有一個清楚的了解，并轉(zhuǎn)變我們的心理和期望。合理的控制我們期待的薪酬范圍。此外，機(jī)會總是青睞有準(zhǔn)備的人。由于經(jīng)濟(jì)的繁榮和就業(yè)市場的改善，機(jī)會仍然是很多的，但是只有那些做好準(zhǔn)備的人能夠充分利用它們來達(dá)到目的。而且，對就業(yè)要保持積極的態(tài)度。這是麻煩的第一步。找工作不是件容易的事，我們可能會被招聘者拒絕，但是我們不能泄氣。我們應(yīng)該一致保持樂觀和自信。

In short, the challenges of employment is always there but it’s not so horrible as we imagine. We should improve ourselves to get a chance and believe that there must be a right job still waiting for us.

總之，就業(yè)的挑戰(zhàn)一直都會存在，但是并不像我們想象的那么可怕。我們應(yīng)該提高自己去贏得機(jī)會，并且相信一定有合適的工作在等著我們。
