At 2 o'clock in the morning, the network room of a certain unit of the Air Force was still brightly lit. Under the watchful eye of the communication class leader and second level sergeant Xie Minglang, the new recruit Cheng Qian systematically investigated the network malfunction. After more than three months of continuous training, several new recruits in the department have made significant professional progress compared to the same period in previous years, quickly entering the state, which is closely related to the pairing and mentoring activities carried out by the department for them. The deployment of new recruits signifies a new beginning in their military career, and many new comrades will face a 'second adaptation period'. In June of this year, with another batch of new recruits joining the company, the department issued the "Soldier Growth Ability Advanced Map" to help new recruits understand the necessary conditions for taking exams, promotion, skill training, etc., and make plans in advance. On this basis, each battalion conducted ideological surveys through individual heart to heart talks, questionnaire surveys, and other methods, and found that there were significant differences in the growth needs of different new recruits. The previous "one size fits all" mentoring model was difficult to meet actual needs. To this end, the department is exploring the establishment of a "classification pairing and precise mentoring" mechanism to help new recruits grow and succeed as soon as possible. For new recruits with clear development directions, the battalion arranges technical backbones in the same professional field to form pairs with them. Cheng Qian studied communication related majors before joining the army, and when he came to the army, he wanted to show off his skills. However, there is a significant gap between theoretical knowledge and practical operation, and after experiencing several failures in training tasks, he began to develop self doubt. Xie Minglang has 8 years of experience in network maintenance. After pairing up with Cheng Qian, he often takes the initiative to explain the circuit layout and component functions to him, and takes him to analyze various fault cases. Under the guidance of Xie Minglang, Cheng Qian successfully optimized the line configuration during a network debugging. This not only helped him regain his confidence, but also helped him take a solid first step in his professional field. For new recruits without clear goals at present, the department fully utilizes methods such as honor incentives and heart to heart talks to help them find their life positioning. New recruit Yang Jiapei enlisted under the urging of his family, and he did not have a specific plan for his military career. After pairing up with him, squad leader Wang Dongfeng told him about his experience of obtaining the combat readiness duty qualification in 39 days, becoming the first new recruit in the same batch to receive a combat number, and the first to climb the honor wall. So, 'obtaining battle numbers in the shortest possible time' became Yang Jiapei's first goal after joining the company. In response to the fact that some new recruits have weak adaptability and shortcomings, each battalion arranges experienced veterans with strong work style to help them lay a solid foundation. The new recruit Lei Ming's physical fitness is average, and he feels very distressed because he cannot keep up with the training progress. The class monitor Yu Chuanjin helped him correct his running posture, taught him to adjust his breathing rhythm, and also used his rest time to accompany him to practice more. One month later, Lei Ming's 3000 meter race performance reached a "good" level. In addition, to stimulate the growth motivation of new recruits, the department has also established a "New Recruit Growth and Progress List", which records everyone's small progress from multiple dimensions such as skill improvement, style cultivation, and discipline compliance. Organizing advance planning and carefully guiding veterans have given me direction, "college student recruit Gao Yang told me. His goal for the next year or two is to develop strong skills, stand out in martial arts competitions, and advance to the rank of sergeant. Thanks to classification pairing and precise mentoring, every new recruit can find a suitable growth path for themselves. ”According to Director Xu of the Human Resources Department of the Political Work Department, as of now, this group of new recruits has grown rapidly, and some outstanding performers have already entered frontline duty positions.
