Some time ago, there was a person who claimed to be a recent graduate of 211. He felt that his monthly salary of 9.5k was not enough for his 211 education.
There are even 985 computer science graduates who see other people’s annual salaries of 30,000 to 400,000 yuan and feel that their offers with annual salary of 180,000 yuan are worthless.
How do you come to see this?
Many students always associate their school level with whether they can find a job and how much their salary will be.
There are some misunderstandings here.
First of all, the starting salary of fresh graduates is related to many factors such as the major they study, the industry they work in, the city they work in, etc. It is a very broad question.
You can't just rely on a 985 or 211 degree to determine what salary you should achieve.
Of course, the better the level, the higher the relative salary.
Many 985 and 211 students have very high starting salaries after graduation. This is the same concept as when parents wanted their children to go to a better school during the college entrance examination.
For example, if this 211 graduate thinks that 9,500 is a low salary, if he is a liberal arts major, he might actually be happy to get 9,500.
Nowadays, academic qualifications are depreciated , and there are many people who graduate from certain majors such as 211 and earn a salary of 4,000 to 5,000 yuan.
As for the 985 graduate majoring in computer science, he got an offer of 18W right after graduation, which is already very good.
There are also many 985 graduates whose salary does not exceed RMB 10,000.
There are even some people who have worked for many years but do not receive an annual salary of 180,000 or 200,000.
Is it too cruel to compare myself with talents from some good companies in the industry just after graduation ?
But it’s not surprising that everyone would think this way.
In today's information age, major apps are flooded with information showing off wealth, leading to people's misunderstanding of normal salaries.
For us ordinary people, we are the silent majority.
The reason why you see a lot of high-salary information is that they send it out because of their high salaries, but in fact most of them are within our normal range .
There is a statistic included in the hot search in the past two days, saying that only 20% of people in Nanjing have a monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan.
Do you think it’s different from the random offers that cost tens of thousands or tens of thousands that are advertised on the Internet?
Whether it is 985 or 211, even C9, there must be people whose monthly salary is less than 10,000 yuan after graduation, but only a small proportion of students who graduate from prestigious schools have a monthly salary of less than 10,000 yuan .
The status of 985 and 211 is just a threshold. It is an important guarantee that you can enter a better working platform than others, but it is not an absolute guarantee of your salary.
When you submit your resume, for example, some R&D positions in large companies have certain requirements for academic qualifications. Only those with more than one resume may pass the screening.
If you are from a 985 or 211 school, you will have a very high passing rate.
This is the advantage of being a good school.
But once this threshold is passed and your resume has passed the screening, the final admission will not have much to do with whether you are 985 or 211.
What ultimately determines your job and salary is the written test and interview.
To put it bluntly, personal strength is the most important.
Especially in the Internet industry, under our guaranteed program in March this year, students who were not eligible for one or two majors were able to get offers from two major companies, but many students in the 985 program did not get them.
Because they don’t know that school level is just a threshold. After passing the screening, it will ultimately depend on the results of the written test and interview.
Suppose a student answered poorly and got 60 points, but he answered 100 points.
How could the interviewer ask for a score of 60 just because he is a 985?
When looking for a job that requires everyone's work ability, academic qualifications are useful, but not the decisive factor.
So academic qualifications are just a stepping stone , don't think that is your specialty.
As for whether this brick can turn into jade in the end, it depends on you.
