Certificate Mania
It is obviously depicted in the cartoon given above that while a graduate is standing before a recuitment desk, he tells the lady proudly that he has a lot of certificates! In the face of the mounting pressure nowadays, many university students take various training courses and certificate exams, in order to gain a competitive edge on the job market.
A chain of reasons lead to this certificate mania. At the heart of the phenomenon, there is an increasing number of university graduates while that of job vacancies does not grow in proportion to it. As a result, employers have bountiful options and would like to recruit the ones with more related experience and skills. Since exams and certificates in some way reflect one's mastery of certain skills, many students would like to give them a try.
To be sure, it is a good thing to be spurred on to learn new things. However, "certificate mania" goes to extremes. It is not only misleading but also places a great burden on students. In my opinion, a certificate does not necessarily reflect one's ability that really counts, and so we had better keep a skeptical eye on this mania and prevent vain and burdensome efforts.
