今天的毕业生们面临着几十年来最艰难的就业市场。未来几年离开大学的学生将可能面临越来越多的竞争和越来越少的毕业生机会。

为了向招聘人员推销自己，你现在就开始考虑如何让自己与众不同，这一点至关重要。当然，一种方法是通过工作经验。

无论你从事什么行业，在离开大学之前在你的简历上有实习经历，就可以告诉未来的雇主，你经历过办公环境，致力于你的职业生涯，并且对你想从事的行业有一定的了解。

可悲的是，学生们常常在寻找第一份实习工作时遇到困难，他们之前的工作经验为零，对自己想做的事情只有一个模糊的概念......请继续阅读一些简单的步骤来突破第一个实习的障碍。

1. 完善你的简历

撰写你的第一份简历总是有点让人措手不及：你需要一份简历来申请你的第一份实习和工作，但还没有什么可写的。或者至少你认为你没有。事实上，你可能有很多东西可以提及。考虑一下个人爱好和课外兴趣，志愿服务和兼职工作，以及你在学习期间获得的所有技能和知识。你有什么技能可以让雇主使用？这可能是任何东西，从研究和规划，到社交媒体社区建设或Photoshop。与其根据就业情况来组织你的简历，不如列出你的关键技能，然后举出具体的例子，说明你是如何获得和利用每一项技能的。

2. 利用你大学的就业服务。

你的大学的就业服务不仅是一个讨论不同职业道路的地方；它也是一个与庞大的专业人士和企业网络联系的方式。了解校友网络以及你如何利用这一网络，并询问任何指导或安置计划。参加你的大学组织的网络活动，或直接联系有有趣的工作头衔的校友--建立这些联系将帮助你发现不同的部门，并听到新的职位空缺。

3. 发送投机性申请。

设计一个你最想去的公司的名单，然后发送投机性的电子邮件。不要忘了附上你的简历和一封简短的个性化的求职信，解释你为什么想在他们那里完成工作经验，并询问任何即将出现的空缺。在电子表格中记录所有你发过邮件的公司名称，以及你发邮件的日期和任何回复，当然要记住，你可能不会收到大多数公司的回复。对于你发送的每50封电子邮件，你可能会收到大约--比如--5封左右的回复。不要让这一点让你失望! 坚持不懈是这个过程的全部内容。

4. 查看工作列表网站。

浏览工作列表网站来寻找实习机会，按行业和角色进行筛选。然而，不要只依赖这种方法。要记住，许多实习岗位没有在网上发布广告，而是通过口口相传来填补，最好是利用一系列不同的方法来最大限度地提高你找到好实习的机会。

5. 尝试做志愿者。

在寻找你的第一个实习机会时，你也可以尝试在一个你欣赏并感到有灵感的组织（政治、慈善或特殊兴趣小组）做志愿者。这是一个积累经验的好方法，发展与你的目标角色相关的技能，并扩大你的人际网络。

通过诺丁汉商学院获得更多实习机会

无论你的学习水平如何，诺丁汉商学院的职业咨询团队将帮助你获得实习和工作机会，了解你的就业市场，并向招聘人员发送完美的申请和求职信。

诺丁汉商学院的校友群体包括10万多名在全球各行业工作的专业人士。为了与诺丁汉特伦特的校友见面并讨论机会和就业市场，该校在全球范围内定期组织活动，将学生与以前的学生联系起来。在这里了解更多信息!

The Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings 2016-2017 by subject, launched today, includes two new rankings dedicated to computer science and business and economics. This brings the total number of subjects covered to eight, with the new additions joining existing rankings of the top 100 universities for arts and humanities; clinical, pre-clinical and health; engineering and technology; life sciences; physical sciences; and social sciences.

As this list illustrates, some of the subject areas covered are relatively specialized, while others are very broad. This means that while some tables can be compared with the QS World University Rankings by Subject, others are more comparable to the QS World University Rankings by Faculty*.

Below is an overview of how this year’s Times Higher Education Subject Rankings compare with the latest QS World University Rankings by Subject, or by Faculty. For a comparison of the overall QS and Times Higher Education World University Rankings overall, click here.

Computer science

A new addition to the Times Higher Education Subject Rankings this year, computer science is also covered in the QS World University Rankings by Subject. THE lists the top 100 universities in this field, and QS the top 500. The Times Higher Education lists sees ETH Zurich take the top spot, while fellow Swiss institution EPFL is also in the top 10. Georgia Tech, Imperial College London and the Technical University of Munich (TUM), all in THE’s top 10, are all within the QS top 25 with the exception of TUM (36^th), in accord with a wider tendency for the Times Higher Education rankings to result in higher positions for German institutions.

Business & economics

Business and economics is another new addition to the Times Higher Education Subject Rankings this year, with the top 100 universities ranked. The QS World University Rankings by Subject breaks down these two fields into two separate rankings – one profiling the top 200 universities for business and management, and one listing the top 300 for economics and econometrics. Both are shown in the table below, with the Times Higher Education top 10 generally corresponding more closely to QS’s economics table. Surprisingly, London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), which features prominently in the QS tables, is not included anywhere within THE's top 100 for this subject area.

Engineering & technology

While the QS World University Rankings by Subject features specialized rankings for five distinct fields of engineering, here it is more relevant to compare the Times Higher Education ranking with the more general QS World University Rankings by Faculty. THE again lists the top 100 universities in this field, while QS’s engineering and technology ranking extends to 400. The comparison reflects general tendencies in which Caltech typically performs better in the Times Higher Education rankings, while Singapore’s Nanyang Technological University comes out higher in the QS rankings. In general, however, the two lists present a very similar picture of the global top 10 in this field.

Social sciences

This broad field is again covered in the QS World University Rankings by Faculty, while the QS World University Rankings by Subject features tables dedicated to specific strands of social sciences – including anthropology, sociology, law and development studies, amongst others. The broader-reaching social sciences and management table from the QS World University Rankings by Faculty is shown below alongside the Times Higher Education results. Again, the specialized London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) – second in the QS list – is not featured in THE's top 10, though this time it is only five places outside.

Clinical, pre-clinical & health

Several tables featured in the QS World University Rankings by Subject could be compared with the Times Higher Education ranking for ‘clinical, pre-clinical and health’. The QS ranking for medicine is shown below, and there is a high level of correspondence between the two sets of top 10 universities in this field. QS’s rankings for nursing, dentistry and pharmacy may also be of interest to students and academics in this area.

Physical sciences

The Times Higher Education physical sciences top 10 is shown alongside QS’s natural sciences ranking, part of the QS World University Rankings by Faculty. More specialized tables are available in the QS World University Rankings by Subject, covering mathematics, physics and astronomy, chemistry, materials sciences and several more natural science specializations. In general, the QS rankings tend to feature leading Asian universities more prominently, and this trend can be seen here, with the leading universities of Singapore and Japan both featuring in the QS top 10, while not appearing until 18^th and 35^th respectively in the Times Higher Education list.

Arts & humanities

Again, the Times Higher Education ranking for arts and humanities is best compared with the same table from the latest QS World University Rankings by Faculty. More specialized rankings are available in the QS World University Rankings by Subject, including tables dedicated to art and design, English language and literature, history and performing arts, amongst others. Interesting, UCL comes out much higher in Times Higher Education’s ranking for this subject area, while generally much higher-placed in QS’s overall world rankings. Likewise, MIT is higher-placed in THE’s arts and humanities list, though it ranks higher in QS’s overall table.

Life sciences

The eighth field covered by the Times Higher Education Subject Rankings is life sciences, which can be compared to the life sciences and medicine ranking in the latest QS World University Rankings by Faculty. Other relevant rankings include QS’s dedicated tables for biological sciences, agriculture and forestry, and veterinary science. These two rankings start off in complete synergy, though the correlation does not hold for long.

*The 2015-2016 results for the QS World University Rankings by Faculty are shown here, as the 2016-2017 edition has not yet been released.

This year’s QS World University Rankings® and Times Higher Education World University Rankings share many similarities, with a high level of correlation between the two lists (0.80 overall, and 0.71 in the top 100). However, the different methodologies also lead to significant divergences, both in the positions accorded to individual institutions, and broader regional trends.

Scroll down for an overview of the top-performing universities in each region according to the QS World University Rankings, alongside the same institutions’ positions in the latest Times Higher Education list.

United States

The US dominates the top of both tables, but – though US institutions have improved their standing in the latest QS ranking – the nation retains an even stronger presence in the Times Higher Education list. Although no longer led by a US institution – with Oxford ending Caltech’s five-year reign – THE’s top 100 features 41 US universities, compared to QS’s 32. In addition to those shown above, Times Higher Education’s top 10 US entries also include the University of California, Berkeley (=10^th) and University of California, Los Angeles (14^th), which come 28^th and 31^st respectively in QS.

United Kingdom

While US universities tend to do slightly better in the Times Higher Education ranking, the reverse is true of the UK. However, despite Oxford’s success in becoming the first UK institution to top the Times Higher Education list, overall both rankings have seen downwards movement for UK universities this year. There are now only 12 UK representatives in THE’s top 100, down from 16 last year, and UK institutions are down by an average of nine places. Although there are still 18 UK entries in the QS top 100, most either lost ground or stayed static this year.

Canada

Canada’s representation in the two rankings is, overall, fairly balanced, though there are notable differences in the order in which Canada’s top universities are listed. Times Higher Education gives the lead to the University of Toronto, followed by the University of British Colombia, while in the QS ranking, McGill University comes out ahead. The Times Higher Education ranking features several more Canadian entries within its top 400 – 17, compared to QS’s 15. 

Continental Europe

In general, continental Europe tends to be better represented in the Times Higher Education ranking, where Germany and the Netherlands are the third and fourth most-represented countries in the top 100. However, both the QS and THE rankings have seen a broadly downwards trend for European institutions this year. In addition to those shown above, the Times Higher Education list also accords high rankings to Sweden’s Karolinska Institute (28^th), Belgium’s KU Leuven (40^th), the Netherlands’ Wageningen University (65^th) and Germany’s Humboldt University of Berlin (=57^th), amongst others.

Asia

While European universities have broadly declined in both rankings this year, the reverse is true in Asia. The QS ranking has previously tended to feature Asian universities more prominently, and this remains the case, though the region is increasingly gaining ground in the Times Higher Education ranking as well. For instance, the top nine Chinese universities have all improved their positions in this year’s THE ranking, while the leading Asian institution – the National University of Singapore – has reached its highest position yet, 24^th, albeit still 12 places below its QS rank.

Australia

The QS and Times Higher Education rankings feature the same set of six Australian universities within their respective top 100s, though not in the same order. The QS list also features the University of Western Australia just two places outside of the top 100, and in general Australian universities tend to fare slightly better under the QS methodology.

New Zealand

Here there’s a clear trend; New Zealand’s universities tend to come out with much stronger positions in the QS ranking, where all eight appear within the global top 450. While the country’s leading institution, the University of Auckland, is well-established within the QS top 100, it remains 65 places outside in the Times Higher Education list, despite having gained seven positions this year.

Latin America

Universities in Latin America have a much stronger presence in the QS rankings, partly due to the fact that many seem to have opted out of providing the data required for inclusion in the Times Higher Education ranking. As shown above, this means many leading Latin American universities featured in the QS list do not appear at all in THE – including Argentina’s Universidad de Buenos Aires, which this year reached the highest position ever achieved by a Latin American institution in the QS World University Rankings.  

Africa & Middle East

The Times Higher Education ranking tends to result in higher positions for universities in both South Africa and Turkey, as well as featuring more universities in northern African countries such as Morocco and Tunisia. On the other hand, universities in Middle Eastern countries such as Israel, Lebanon and Saudi Arabia have a stronger presence in the QS ranking, which also accords higher positions to the leading Egyptian institutions.
