Research on the Employment Dilemmas and Countermeasures for College Students in the Post-Pandemic Era

Under the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the global economy has undergone profound changes, presenting unprecedented challenges to the job market for college graduates. This paper focuses on students in the field of economics and management, employing methods such as surveys, forums, and in-depth interviews to analyze the employment dilemmas and their causes in the post-pandemic era for college students. The study finds that students face a series of issues in aspects like employment information access, work skills, job-seeking conditions, professional qualities, social cognition, and career development. To address these challenges, the paper proposes six countermeasures and work plans, including improving employment services, strengthening school-enterprise cooperation, using data for guidance, conducting quality development, enhancing cognitive internship management, and statistical analysis of historical data. The aim is to enhance students’ employability and professional qualities, better adapting them to the job market in the post-pandemic era.
