Features: This book aims to inspire the improvement of a "holistic, comprehensive, professional, and information-based" career guidance system, assist in comprehensively enhancing the comprehensive quality and employability and entrepreneurship skills of college students, and provide guidance for the healthy development of their career paths. During the writing process, we adhered to the concept of scientific development and people-centered principles, focusing on comprehensively improving the career skills and comprehensive quality of college students. Drawing on Western career guidance theories and combining the characteristics of China's higher education reform and modern career development, we integrated career planning throughout students' academic lives and actively explored talent development models centered on enhancing college students' employability. We attempted to construct a new career guidance curriculum for college students, particularly innovating and experimenting in career guidance theory and operational models. This book, aligned with China's higher education reform and the characteristics of modern career development, closely integrates career paths with college life across three levels: career life preparation, career planning, and employment guidance practice, constructing a new career guidance curriculum. It not only introduces advanced career development theories and career choice theories from domestic and international perspectives but also proposes theories and methods for career assessment. Furthermore, it provides specialized analysis and guidance on current hot issues in employment and the comparative relationship between college students, offering suggestions and advice for fresh graduates entering the workforce. It guides graduates to quickly transition into their roles, overcome career setbacks, and learn, grow, and mature in society as a "university."
