A report on the influence Factors of Graduating Students a Survey Report on Employment1 IntroductionIn the last two decades, owning to education, we witnessed a rapid development in industry, agriculture, science and technology in China. Education can not only enrich peoples knowledge, but also improve peoples moral standard as a whole. However, with the new higher education policies coming into effect, a growing number of college students are fully aware of the uncertainties of their future careers. How to find a right niche for ourselves? As a result, we did this study aims to investigate the influence factors of graduating students employment. We hope we can offer some advises for college students based on the findings of our research.65 graduating students from Shandong University were investigated and 65 questionnaires are valid. The questionnaire is both in electronic form and papery form. We collect the data and type the result into computer. Besides, in order to make the result more directviewing, we use Excel to make diagrams. Through our statistical analysis, the results indicated that most of the college students want to get a stable job with a high salary. And they tend to work in big cities or work abroad where there has a good development prospect.2 Research Design 2.1 Research Questions:The questionnaire is clearly set out in appendix I.More specifically, the following questions were addressed:1. Personally, does gender has impact on applying for jobs?2. In your opinion, which of the following abilities will be the advantage when you look for a job?3. Do you think what ability needs to be improved when you look for a job?2.2 Participants:65 graduating students from Shandong University were investigated. 40 of them filled in the questionnaire online. The students who have been surveyed were voluntary. And the average age of students was 20. And 30 percent of the students are male and 70 percent of the students are female.2.3 Instrument:It was designed by Li Yaru, and it was developed in English to evaluate the thought of graduating students view in employment. And the questionnaire contained 11 items in total, including 10 choice questions and an essay question. Modifications of the questionnaire were made by Zhang Yinwei, Wang Rui and Liu Yang.2.4 Data Collection:The questionnaire was administered on 12nd, May. Students were surveyed randomly online. And students were asked to complete the questionnaire honestly and carefully. In addition, students were assured to complete anonymity of answers.2.5 Data Analysis:The data collected from questionnaires were entered into Excel for statistical analysis. Bar chart is applied to evaluate the number of male students and female students. And Pie charts were used to analyze the results of the rest of the questions.3 Findings:1. What is your gender?65 graduating students from Shandong Univercity were investigated, including 13 girls and 52 boys.2. Which job channel do you tend to choose? According to investigation result, about 68% students tend to choose the way through friends or relatives to look for work. The result may be due to the Chinese old saying, at home one relies on ones parents and outside on ones friendsAt home one relies on ones parents and outside on ones friendsAt home one relies on ones parents and outside on ones friendsAt home one relies on ones parents and outside on ones friends . Our familiar people never deceive us. Although most people tend to relatives and help find work, but there are still roughly 17% the graduates want to look for a job through recruitment fair. This suggests that some college students tend to find a job by own efforts.3. After graduation, which field do you hope to work? It is surprised that 89% of college students are not willing to work in a major-related field. They think the university teaches learning methods instead of professional knowledge. As a result, a cross-professional job will not affect the future development, and this will give them more challenges in the wok.4. Do you think which your preferred salary standard is?For graduating students, the salary of their first job should not be too high. But it is found that 46% of people choose the highest salary. This suggests that some of the graduates are full of themselves. In their mind, such work is not worth doing. This is also the reason why a lot of college students cant find work. 5. In the process of looking for a job search, which will hinder your choice?In the process of looking for a job, the biggest obstacle is poor working conditions. With the improvement of living standard, many college students are pampered and they cant bear the poor working environment. Therefore, 51% the people want to have good working conditions. In addition, salary is another big obstacle. 6Personally, does gender has impact on applying for jobs?Obviously, most of the students think the gender has impact on applying for a job. Nowadays, with the rapid development of our society and economy, there have emerged many working opportunities. But there exists a problem that high-level jobs are mostly occupied by men even though some women are also competent. That disagrees with the equality of men and women. It is a well-known fact that there are many women, Madame Curit and Margreat Thatcher, to name only a few, in history who work as scientists and politicians. When we talk about this phenomenon, first we must admit that there exist some differences between men and women. Then we should know that neither side could be regarded better or worse. For example, if you say men are often calm and objective, but dont you see some men are more careless than women? Besides, if you think women are always hesitant and sensitive, and then what would you say when they behave thoughtfully in work? Therefore there are not absolute advantages for men when considering their gender. Personally, I firmly believe that women should be given the same rights as men, because they are equally important in all human activities. However, this kind of prejudice has been existing for a long time. No matter men or women have been affected more or less; this idea has even made some women lose confidence in themselves. Therefore our whole society and especially our government should take efficient measure to encourage a certain percentage of jobs especially high-level jobs to be reserved for women. Through this way, we would hopefully see that more and more outstanding women can be working in their favorite jobs and can get their desirable position. And just by that our working field can be called a kind of equality of men and women. 7. Where is your ideal working place? 52% of college students want to go to the east regions after graduation. 6% of college students want to go to the middle China. And there are respectively 39% and 3% of college students want to go to the north regions and the west regions. In my opinion, most of college students want to go to east regions. It may be because that the eastern economic prosperity. There are a lot of job opportunities and there have more space for development. And some cities in middle China, such as Wuhan Xian Zhengzhou, also have good jobs to do. But the environment of the western and northern is not so good, so very few people were willing to go and work there.8. Why do you choose the upper vocation?43% of college students chose the upper vocation for high income. There are respectively 5% and 40% of college students chose the upper vocation for fitting in major and good promotion prospect. And 12% chose the upper vocation for the stability of the work. So I think that many college students want to find a good job and earn a lot of money to improve the standard of living. And some students want to find a job which can enjoy themselves and live a simple and stable life.9. In your opinion, which of the following ability will be the advantage when you look for a job?According to our survey results, only 9% of the students choose the education background. About 32% of college students think that their advantage is learning ability, and the rest chose innovation ability and communication ability. It is always a hot topic that what should a boss focus on more, someone pay their attention to ability, and what they think of ability is everything ,but at the same time, some others argue that the opposite one-diploma is more important. In my opinion, different choice should be made on different occasion. In other words, if the employee is a young man who just graduated from universities, then diploma and how does the man show in university should be think about more, there is an old saying: a man should always be responsible for his job, as a student ,he has an obligation to do his study well ,and at this point ,a beautiful school report card is great, at least it proves his study ability, which is very essential for the coming days, and because he is so young that he owns the enthusiasm on work, which is also a necessary factor. But if the employee is a forty-year-old man who has quit his job or been fired by the original corporation, then the boss would think a lot of things such as working ability, experience and so on. Then the diploma would be seen nothing as it is just a history to him. All in all ,both of them are important, of course ,there are some else are also indispensably, to the boss ,before making a choice, think about what he want best, namely, which person he need most is the most important thing.10. Did you ever think about being self-employed?When it comes to some questions about being self-employed, our survey shows that 72% of the college students never think about being self-employed, and 17% students think that they can create their own business. And only 3% of the students have decided to be self-employed, but they are not well prepared. As we know, many college students hope that they can work in some famous companies after graduation, so they know very little about being self-employed. If there are less and less college students cannot create their own business, Chinas employment market will be worse.11. Do you think what ability needs to be improved when you look for a job? In the questionnaires, most of the graduating students think the English skills and the ability to use computers need to be improving. As we know, many students want to work in foreign companies, so if we cant communicate with others, how can we work? There is no doubt that English is one of the worlds most widely used languages. English has become the language of international trade and transport. And the most important is that Engl
