   Before graduating from a Zhejiang provincial university, Li Chun went to Shanghai last May. On arrival and after a friend’s recommendation, she became a student journalist at a large newspaper. “ I find myself having no competitive edge at all. Almost all the journalists in the newspaper graduated from journalism schools at famous universities. Only I come from a provincial university, and to be more specific, a university of science and engineering, which makes my situation even more embarrassing” This means Li has to make greater efforts, and as a student journalist, Li hasn’t any formal job credentials. When having an interview, she has to bring her ID card and newspaper clippings（剪辑的东西） to show her published articles, while explaining the situation to the interviewers to clear up any suspicions. “During one interview, I forgot to bring the newspapers and my ID card, and the interviewer refused to believe me, even after a considerable amount of explanation. I waited outside his office for three hours until he left work. Maybe it was my sincerity that moved him and finally he accepted my interview.”

   Li was not familiar with the transportation in Shanghai and at first didn’t even know how to use the subway. However, as a journalist, she must travel from place to place. “ If I make an interview appointment, I often need to check the map to see how I can get there. I often leave for my destination one hour earlier than my estimated time I would spend on the way, in case something unexpected happens.”

   After several weeks’ travelling, Li has now made herself familiar with Shanghai’s transportation system and has also gradually mastered the interviewing skills necessary when doing her many independent interviews. This is the first fieldwork practice of Li. Although she used to work in the Students’ Union at university and has the experience of being a tutor(a private instructor), a student for many years, Li seldom leaves the limits of school to engage in more social activities. However, as a senior, she faces the coming graduation and job-hunting problems, and believes that it is time she plans for her future. She also thinks that although journalistic fieldwork doesn't suit her special major training very much, it doesn’t matter, for a student is supposed to learn more about the ability of self-study from university education. Consequently, she feels OK if at present or in future she is required to engage in jobs that don’t have such close friendships with her major. Because life and work is already a process of continuous study.
