Employment prospectsAnalysis
The current employment prospects for graduates of journalism and communications can be broadly grouped into three broad categories:
The first is the traditional media, including traditional paper-based media, radio and television media and periodicals, which are the backbone of our media market and continue to be the leading protagonists in news flows。
The second category is new developmentsNew mediaIndustry, such as new media operations, new media editors, writing programmes, editorials, etc. With the advent of the internet industry, the demand for new media professionals has increased dramatically and their number of employees is even higher than that of the traditional media, which will undoubtedly be the destination of the vast majority of graduates of journalism and communications。
The third category is written planning and market personnel in all walks of life, including operations or market managers, market commissioners, brand managers, market promotion, advertising, campaign planning, computer network development, etc。
In terms of the salaries of graduates, according to the institute of prospective industries, the income of the undergraduate students in the field of journalism for the period 2015-2018 is rising at a high rate, six months after graduation, and the employment rate is above the national average, with an average monthly salary of 5045 yuan for the class 2018 graduates. In terms of employment, the areas of employment of graduates of journalism and communications are concentrated in the northern and western cities, where the proportion is as high as 72 per cent。

Xinhua: the average remuneration is 7250 yuan/month, of which the editor-in-chief's salary is higher at 12,000 yuan/month。


Daily people's journal: average salary is rmb 7366 per month, of which the highest amount of rmb 12,000 per month is for content editors。
As can be seen, the average remuneration of xinhua and the people's daily is not the same, with the main editor of xinhua and the editorial editor of the people's daily being ahead of the rest of the industry and on average up to rmb 12,000 per month。
At the same time, these platforms are more competitive if graduates are graduate masters! Among them, women and master's degree students are the main target of recruitment。
For graduates of journalism and communications professions to emerge from the new media, it is necessary not to be satisfied with existing professional education, to strive to increase their value added and to enrich the possibilities of the future, so that they will not be easily eliminated in this new era. A complex talent with both the basic operational capacity for news and the ability to capture the latest developments in the market, with a deep understanding of user needs and even of technology, is indispensable. “mixed” talent is increasingly popular in the market

Attention for candidates
In recent years, an increasing number of institutions have begun to enrol in the larger categories, which are then transferred to specific fields according to the interest and learning of the students. It would be useful for candidates to be able to identify specific professions in the major categories of journalism in the reported institutions, and which are the subjects of interest to the candidates before choosing。
In addition, students who study communication should have a flexible mind, a high degree of political sensitivity and insight, and a better ability to express words, including written and oral. It would be desirable to have idealism and professional enthusiasm for the dissemination of information, and to have strong psychological qualities to overcome the stress at work。
