This article investigates the employment pressure and employment intentions of normal college students in the post-epidemic era. Research results indicate that due to the economic slowdown in the post-epidemic era, the current employment situation is severe, with increased competition and pressure for normal college students. More and more job seekers are considering obtaining teaching positions and other public service posts to achieve a relatively stable life. Despite some normal college students seeking alternative employment paths due to the increased pressure in the teaching sector, 67% of students still adhere to their original intentions and are willing to strive to enhance their professional skills to pursue opportunities in becoming teachers. Regarding employment decisions, economic income and personal interests are the main factors influencing the post-graduation choices of normal college students. Meanwhile, they are also willing to continuously enrich and improve themselves, enhance their competitiveness, and strive to become the versatile talents needed in the new era. The author believes that the employment of normal college students in the teaching sector requires efforts from various aspects of society, schools, and individual students, enabling educators who truly love the cause of education to thrive at the forefront of education.
