The immense pressure in undergraduate studies
Thread Content
After graduating, I went to work in a factory as a technician. To my surprise, not long after that, a major crisis arose: the company hired over a dozen graduate students, and we undergraduates were left with nothing but to work shifts moving valves. Those who graduated a few years ago are now coming back to take our places. Have you ever faced competition from graduate students? ?
There are very few postgraduate students in our unit; I’ve also heard of situations like yours. Actually, this is temporary; you need to persevere, and even when turning the valves, you must be careful and responsible. As long as you work hard at your current tasks, there will always be opportunities. Furthermore, when one is not busy, one should keep learning; a diploma may not be as good as others’, but skills should be on par with others’ Wishing the original poster success as they move forward!
Work hard; after starting work, skills are the most important thing
We’re not much worse than postgraduate students; they conduct more experiments and such
Working as a technician in a factory: having a graduate degree doesn’t give any advantage; work experience is what really matters； It's important to show what you can do at critical moments, to prove that you are no worse than graduate students, and in some aspects even have advantages over them. In particular, pay attention to learning more*, and best wishes to the original poster.
Hehe, relax, close your eyes, and take a deep breath. . . Okay! Open your eyes. . . Start a new day of life – learn more* and gain more experience!
How could you have such an idea? Does a high diploma necessarily mean strong capabilities? Have you heard the phrase \"high intelligence, low ability\"? Moreover, a high educational degree does not necessarily mean high intelligence! To be honest, I only have a high school diploma, yet I still work in industrial design! You’re a BSc graduate – why do you look down on yourself like that?
What’s the use of having a graduate degree from a factory? What really matters is competence, guys – work hard and build up your skills
Keep it up! It really comes down to experience. Starting from a graduate level means that the 3 years of work experience weren’t in vain, and the knowledge acquired during those 3 years of undergraduate study is also something that shouldn’t be underestimated.
Is the original poster worrying needlessly? Considering the actual situation of work, it’s a good thing for companies to bring in new employees, as this adds fresh blood that lays the foundation for future development. The existing problem at the same time is replacing the old with the new, just as you have considered. In fact, most leaders cannot reuse a newcomer, because practical work relies on work experience, which has nothing to do with academic qualifications. A degree only proves that one has received certain training; other knowledge needs to be acquired continuously, and this is a process that takes time. In short, the landlord should focus on working hard and let their skills do the talking. A bachelor’s degree also makes one an intellectual; don’t look down on yourself!
Only through hard work can one’s true abilities be tested! As long as you work hard and possess practical skills, it doesn’t matter whether you have a master’s or a doctorate degree!
What companies look at is strength and the value you create; although educational qualifications are useful, they are not the most important factor
When working in a factory, a diploma isn’t that important; experience and skills are far more crucial. One should have confidence in oneself – as long as one works hard, they will be no worse than others.
Bro, no matter what, keep trying
With the right mindset, practical experience at the grassroots level is truly the most valuable.
A high level of education leads to overambition and lack of practical skills! In China’s education system, postgraduates have simply studied for three more years, but they don’t possess any real skills!
Haha. . You’re overthinking it. You’re just saying that others have taken your job; in other words, that doesn’t mean you haven’t learned any real skills yourself, right? (I’m sorry) Are you feeling guilty? Believe this: it takes time to build up a solid foundation, and the amount of knowledge one possesses does not necessarily indicate one’s level of competence. In my opinion, the difference between those who have studied and those who haven’t lies in their ability to identify and solve problems. In fact, starting from the grassroots level allows one to learn more
This situation is unavoidable; firstly, the overall environment is poor. . With so many undergraduates competing, not to mention postgraduates! In times of economic crisis, the education sector shifts the pressure to further education; a few years later, when master’s graduates cannot find jobs, there will surely be an increase in admissions for doctoral programs as well. . . Also, in engineering and science fields, it’s essential to pursue a master’s degree if you work in technology. . . Otherwise, you’ll remain an operator for the rest of your life.
Graduate students conduct experiments for three years; during those same three years, undergraduates can also gain experience and learn from practical work, so they’re not necessarily inferior to graduate students. The key is to maintain the right mindset: handshake
An emergency crisis has arisen; academic qualifications no longer count. What matters now is one’s abilities – learning skills and social skills. In a company, the latter are even more important. So, regardless of one’s educational background, I just need to do my own job well, build good relationships, acquire necessary skills, and have those connections as well. Then who can fear whom?
