In recent days, the college entrance examination scores of various provinces across the country have come down one after another. Soon these college entrance examination families will be faced with filling out the application form for the college entrance examination. A relative of the author called for several days to inquire about his child's application.
At this time of year, the most nervous person is not the children but the parents, because parents deeply understand that their children are standing at an important crossroads in life, and their aspirations may affect their children's lives.
A relative wanted to fill in the IT industry major for his child and asked the author for his opinion. The reason she gave is also very simple. The IT industry has always been a popular direction for college entrance examination applications. There is still a big gap in IT talents, especially mid-to-high-end talents. There is no need to worry about future employment.
Of course, there is another reason why relatives did not explain clearly. I have seen technology companies go from establishment to listing and reach the peak of their lives; I have seen IT practitioners become rich and freely buy houses and cars, and marry Bai Fumei ; who can not What about envy? ,
How to fill in the college entrance examination application form? Whether the IT industry can apply for these questions, the author is afraid of lack of ability, so I visited a colleague in the company, a big shot in the author's eyes, and asked him to give some answers to the questions related to filling in the application for the college entrance examination (colleague's background: 36 years old, chief architect , worked at SAP/AWS, undergraduate majored in artificial intelligence , graduated from a certain company (985/211).
Of course, in the end, the final decision on whether to choose the IT industry as a college entrance examination choice lies with the relatives themselves.
Who will make the decision when it comes to filling in the application form for the college entrance examination?
The answer to this question is different for every family. When my colleague filled out his application form, he had repeated discussions with his parents and finally chose between medicine and computer science. Later, he still felt that he was more interested in computers, and the employment opportunities were wider. As it turns out, he was wise. After graduating from
, my colleague successfully entered SAP, a German company, and worked there for 10 years until he became the chief architect. Later, he went to Amazon Technology (AWS) for better development. looks back on his career of more than ten years, until he became the co-founder & chief architect of Maicong Software, all of which were rooted in the data field.
Generally speaking, when volunteering, you need to fully consider the child's personality, hobbies and characteristics. If you have a calm and hard-working personality, you are suitable for scientific research. In addition, family background and connections, market demand, personal interests and hobbies, ideals, etc. must also be considered, and the opinions of all parties should be considered before making a decision.
The author knows that some college entrance examination students are not so lucky. Some of them live in rural areas with limited information and their parents cannot give guidance. As a result, their majors are adjusted to majors that they dislike very much.
If the profession you are engaged in can provide you with fun and enjoyment throughout your life, then work will become the happiest thing. After choosing your major, choose a school that matches your score and the city where you want to live. After sorting it out according to this idea, you can basically figure out what you want to apply for.
When the author asked whether he should choose the IT industry, his colleagues pointed out that is like this in all industries. Laymen only see the glamorous side and cannot see the hard-working side of .
To gain a foothold in the IT industry, IT practitioners need to have strong stress resistance and learning abilities. The norm for IT practitioners may be to leave early and come home late, to live under the stars, and have less time for romance or family reunions. IT practitioners may face the crisis of unemployment at the age of 35, baldness and sub-healthy bodies.
These are not alarmist. I just hope that parents and children should have a comprehensive understanding before choosing.
Which is more important, city, school or major?
When filling in the college entrance examination application, parents are often troubled by many factors such as major, school and city.
also believes that the priority order of factors to consider is: city, school, major. The first consideration is the city, because the city represents the child's future vision and opportunities ; the second consideration is the school, because the school represents the atmosphere and ethos the child will live in in the future; the third consideration is the major, because the major is passed can be decided by your own personal abilities.
Currently, a colleague mentioned that there is another view that parents should make choices based on these four points: first, look at the school, reputation is very important; second, look at the major, interested majors are more likely to get twice the result with half the effort; third, look at the school. In cities, there are more opportunities in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen; fourth, look at personality. Personality determines how high a child can reach.
What should I do if I find that I don’t like my first major?
It is difficult to ensure that the first major is the most suitable when filling out the college entrance examination application, so it is best to discover the major you like as early as possible, and you can choose a major or study a major that interests you.
It is understood that due to lack of guidance from parents and teachers, many people make many detours due to misjudgment or randomness when choosing their first major.
However, fortunately, many people find their own interests and start self-study or adjust their majors when they are sophomores or juniors. They pass all the certificates that can be taken in society. Thanks to the blessing of interests and hobbies, they finally show their talents. The professional level is no worse than that of professional students.
