Qianjiang Evening News·Hourly News Reporter Jiang Yun Correspondent Xia Mengyi
According to the latest statistics from the Ministry of Education, the number of college graduates in 2022 will reach 10.76 million, a year-on-year increase of 1.67 million. The number of graduates exceeded 10 million for the first time, setting a record high. According to the latest data from the Zhejiang Provincial Department of Education, the total number of college graduates in Zhejiang in 2022 has reached 390,000, an increase of 60,000 from last year.
Looking at the seniors who are anxious about #the largest number of graduates in history, 10.76 million# and #the hardest employment season in history, college students have begun to prepare for a rainy day. In this context, summer internships are extremely popular. According to the "Survey on Internship Situation of School Students 2022" released by 515, 47.4% of the respondents have already had internship experience during their freshman or sophomore years. Combined with the surveys in the previous two years, there is an obvious trend of front-loading the starting time of internships for current students.
In addition, nearly 90% of the respondents recognized that internships are actually helpful for employment, and more than 60% of the respondents chose to actively participate in internships rather than passively participate at the school's request.
These data clearly show that internships continue to grow in popularity and importance. For college students, internship is an experience of working life, a resume that can be used for further studies and employment, a practice of applying school knowledge, and preparation for campus recruitment.
As the summer vacation is coming to an end, reporters from Qianjiang Evening News and Hourly News interviewed four college students who are doing summer internships to hear about their gains and feelings during their summer internships.
Xiao Ni
Internship unit: a tertiary hospital
Internship position: Intern (hospital internship in the final year of college)
Internship experience: Busy and tired, no weekends
Xiao Ni told Qianjiang Evening News·Hour News reporter, Medicine The internship for students is different from other majors. In the last year of her undergraduate degree, she needed to rotate in various departments of the hospital and intern for a full year. Since he is still in the undergraduate stage, Xiao Ni also needs to pay tuition while receiving internship salary, so there is not much real salary left.
Since the hospital cannot work online, Xiao Ni needs to arrive at the hospital before eight o'clock every day. She found that no matter how early she arrived, there were always doctors and nurses busy. Xiao Ni said: "The internship is really physical work. Not only do you have to stand all day, but the work is also very physically demanding. One day before, I drew blood all morning without stopping for a while, and the result was that the next day My whole arm is sore."
Xiao Ni said that in addition to consuming physical strength, hospital internships do not have weekends, and they usually have one day of duty on Saturdays and Sundays. So the chance of taking two days off is slim. There are many patients in tertiary hospitals and they are very busy every day. Doctors are used to being busy all the time, and as an intern, she also needs to keep her body and brain running at high speed.
Xiao Ni is collecting nucleic acid
At present, there are not many departments where Xiao Ni rotates, but she feels that the internship has indeed allowed her to enter the society early and apply the knowledge learned in school. At school, she faced thick textbooks and countless experiments. When she arrived at the hospital, she faced patients in need of help. "The knowledge and skills she learned in school can really help those patients, which gave her a great sense of accomplishment."
Although the internship was very busy and tiring, Xiao Ni also encountered something heart-warming. Recently, a cafeteria lady saw them collecting nucleic acids outdoors on a hot day and wanted to deliver mung bean soup. However, there was no way to eat during the nucleic acid collection process. In the end, the aunt waited until they got off work. "The mung bean soup is really delicious."
Jingyi
Internship unit: an automobile company
Internship position: Corporate Communications Department intern
Internship experience: Remote internship cannot understand the working atmosphere and work dynamics of the department. It is not like going to work, but more like completing homework.
Jingyi, who is an intern in the corporate communications department of a car company, said that due to the uncontrollable epidemic and the company being too far away from school, when the company gave her the choice of online or offline internship, she chose an online remote internship. . She went home after joining the company in Beijing, and even kept the internship agreement with HR.
Jingyi’s internship agreement has always been placed with HR.
She told reporters that remote internships can easily be ignored by teachers. The intern teacher might only think of her once every two weeks, and because he didn't go to the company, he didn't have any workplace experience. Although I need to sit in front of the computer during working hours every day, complete the tasks assigned by the teacher in time and provide feedback on the completion of the work, "staying at home always feels less like going to work and more like completing homework."
In addition, remote internships cannot understand the working atmosphere and latest work dynamics of the department. Usually, we can only learn about some company situations through copied emails.
She said helplessly: "I have never even met my teacher in person." Because she has never had face-to-face contact, she doesn't know the teacher's work style. Sometimes she doesn't know if she takes the initiative to ask. Is it better to have a job, or to just sit back and wait for arrangements?
Xiaojin
Internship unit: An advertising company
Internship position: Data analysis intern
Internship experience: Am I being treated as a soft persimmon?
During this summer vacation, Xiao Jin worked as a data analyzer in an advertising company. Part of her job was to reconcile accounts with suppliers and then initiate payment applications to the company's finance.
Xiaojin's office area
Last month, Xiaojin modified the statement and sent it to the other company. After they stamped it, Xiaojin discovered a small problem. If he wanted to change it, the other company needed to print it again. Stamp it once. She talked to the instructor, and the instructor asked her to ask about finance in the WeChat group. This WeChat group was specially established for her. Because she does not have enterprise WeChat , she has no way to join the company's official group. Therefore, in order to facilitate contact, the teaching teacher established a group for her and several employees she often contacts.
The next day, Xiaojin asked Finance again in the group, and Finance added her on WeChat. After the financial officer responded to the question, he said that she would take leave next week and work again the week after, and asked Xiaojin which payments could be put into the next week. Xiaojin said that the company's billing period is at the end of July. If payment cannot be made until next week, the billing period will be postponed to mid-August. Xiao Jin felt that the finance officer might think that the intern was a soft persimmon. “She wanted to find out the loopholes in my words so that she could legitimately pay late. When people ask her why she still hasn’t paid, she can pass all the blame on me. Me.”
Shrewdy
Internship unit: a sports brand
Internship position: Marketing department intern
Internship experience: Change students’ thinking and communicate more when encountering problems they do not understand.
Shrewdy interned in the marketing department of a sports brand. During her internship, what gave her the most sense of accomplishment was the online sports live broadcast she planned step by step. She began to learn to communicate with different teams, and also began to understand how projects operate under the system of a large company.
Shrewdy lamented: "In the workplace, the thinking of students in schools really needs to be changed." She said that when she first went to the internship, her student thinking model really made her make some mistakes.
Once, the leader assigned a task, but she didn't understand it very well. She did not choose to ask the leader directly, but chose to figure it out on her own, but she couldn't figure it out clearly, which ultimately delayed the entire team's time. "I always hope that I can figure it out, but most of the time I think in the wrong direction. Then I started to do it in the wrong direction, wasting time. "
In school, teachers assign homework and students submit it. There is very little intermediate communication process and follow-up feedback process. After experiencing several similar incidents, Shrewdy concluded that the safest way is to report to the leader when the task is completed at about 20%, 50% and 80%. This will help your work move in the right direction.
College students who have just entered the workplace for internship have many emotions. Despite being busy and helpless, college students have also gained a change in their thinking patterns and the ability to apply what they have learned. In the face of increasingly fierce employment competition, internships have gradually become an important factor in improving employment competitiveness.What have you encountered during your internship?
