Abstract
With the development of society, many industries and professions are more comprehensive and intersecting. Different industries have their own requirements for students with comprehensive backgrounds. For graduates, they may not know the skills required for various occupations, or what kind of jobs and occupations they can take based on their existing knowledge and skills, even how to acquire these abilities after they know the requirements of the jobs they want.

This chapter will help job hunters gradually master skills, and ultimately achieve the goal of optimizing resource allocation and saving social resources.
