介绍:
Sun Haitaois is about to graduate from Anyang Institute of Technology with 65 certificates, 6 are of national level and 15 are provincial level. As graduation is around the corner, he has applied for jobs in 50 companies, but has been rejected by all.
This left him puzzled as he has won so many certificates and proved to be a top student in his university. His credentials seem to fit the job descriptions these companies have listed. So, what went wrong?
An alumni who faced the same predicament claims their 2nd rate alma mater is not attractive to employers. He himself got a master degree from top-notch university and later got an average job.

"For us small private business owners, we are looking at the job applicant's experience, how they position themselves, and his/her attitude towards work. The university one graduated from is the last factor we take under consideration. My gut tells me this guy with too many certificates seems suspicious. He could be unconfident about his major, lack career planning and doesn't know what he wants."
(HY) 小刚 on news.sina.com.cn:
"Just as Sun is complaining about employers discriminating against him for his alma mater, he is making the mistake of equating certificates to capability."

"Most graduates from first-rate universities are capable. Whereas only some graduates from second-rate universities are capable. So, employers are interested in hiring the former. Graduates from second-rate universities need to prove themselves valuable when looking for the first job. But after that, your abilities speak for yourself."

"No company is not hungry for talent. Sun has no one but himself to blame. I think there is a fundamental mismatch in his expectation versus what's available for him. If he doesn't see this, no one can help him!"

"This student may not be familiar with the human resource assessment mechanism. Resumes without the keywords HR is looking for don't pass the first round. I suggest he have his resume checked by someone with HR experience."
(LK) 蒋杰俊 on 重庆Morning news.com says:
"Labeling himself a top student who deserves a good job (just because you've earned a few certificates) shows some students are blind to the job market reality. It is tough out there. But complaining doesn't solve the problem. Sun and many others like him should identify their weak spots and improve in that regard."
