Recognize yourself and be a "lanbo" in the workplace"

Starting from now on, we can seize every opportunity, quickly act, experience as much as possible, and continuously cultivate ourselves. After graduation, we will be able to become a workplace "lanbo.

Li Lei is an outstanding fresh graduate from top universities in China. According to his strength, if it was in previous years, he had received several recruitment notices. However, this year, due to the impact of the financial crisis, a recruitment notice was not received. This is not a case. In the past, very popular accounting firms, investment banks, and management consulting giants suddenly suffered a collective speech this year. Although the vigorous online application, written examination, and interview sessions were held several rounds, however, the last recruitment notice was delayed. It was reported that the recruitment of these companies on campus was completely frozen this year, and some companies are still brewing large-scale layoffs. Other industries, such as manufacturing, foreign trade, and some services, have also cut their recruitment plans for fresh graduates in large quantities this year.

What Should college students do in the face of such a crisis? The war of war has the cloud: Know yourself, know yourself, and know what you want. The more important this sentence is in the crisis, the more valuable it is. Understanding yourself and knowing yourself are the first step to success. It is more important to analyze yourself and examine yourself from the perspective of a hiring manager. As an HR manager, I have interviewed many people and can clearly understand that my candidates will not exceed 5%, so the elimination rate is very high. In other words, if you can recognize yourself, you will stand out from the bustling 100 people and become the top five. How can such talents not find a job?

So how can we get to know ourselves clearly? We need to know who the HR manager or recruitment manager looks. There are three major aspects: knowledge and skills, professionalism, value and motivation. We will dissect them one by one.

In terms of knowledge and skills, HR generally does not focus on the courses you have learned or the number of points you have received, but on the major and contact list you have learned. At this time, compound talents have obvious advantages. For example, a student of this science electronics or graduate school of law can easily find the position of intellectual property consultant in the electronics industry, and a graduate of a school of pure oral English won the English teacher of the New Oriental industry. students of both biology and computer majors join the national DNA sequencing research group. As a job seeker, you must discover that you are different from others and take advantage of differentiation. This is equivalent to occupying the dominant terrain in the military, and winning first in the fight.

professionalism is the most important aspect of HR interviews. Professional qualities include interpersonal sensitivity, business etiquette, communication skills, team spirit, problem analysis and solution skills, decision-making ability, planning ability, organizational ability, execution ability, learning ability, pressure processing ability, etc.. These qualities are mainly used in one case, so HR will pay close attention to your internship experience. What you need to be clear is that HR is not concerned about what you did during your internship, it is what you think, how you do, why you do, how you feel, and what you gain when you do these things. HR has a professional name for this: bei interview or behavior event interview. In this process, you can't do anything false, so never lie. However, you can recall a few examples in advance and combine your advantages and features in the case. Be sure to be truthful. Do not go too far to guess and cater to the requirements of recruitment companies. Each company has different requirements for these qualities. On the surface, companies with different qualities have different definitions, for example, communication skills in Company A may represent the use of data, clear facts, and straightforward presentation of analysis results and analysis processes. In Company B, it may represent the use of human experience to influence others. If you get this job opportunity, the first day of work will become the beginning of purgatory. In a word, you can clearly, clearly, and truthfully express yourself, and then check whether your style matches your company's style. The "dashboard", which is used to show its own chameleon capabilities in order to gain a job opportunity, is actually the biggest irresponsible to itself. The "smart turn" refers to this type of person.

Values and motivations are the underlying things in people's psychology. Ordinary people do not even know themselves at ordinary times and will only stand out when facing major choices. In history, almost all the joys and sorrows of TV series are related to this. Enterprise HR also pays more and more attention to the observation of values and motivations. For candidates, you need to identify which of the following three aspects are most important: Achievement Motivation, affinity motivation, and influence motivation. In plain words, you need to understand that what you want most is to become a champion in a certain field, whether to become an intimate sister in a team, or to influence the development process of others, events, and even the world in various ways. By clarifying this, you can easily find yourself ready and be appreciated by others. For example, most of the accounting firms and investment banks have strong motivation for achievement. if you want to maintain a harmonious interpersonal relationship with others, maybe this is not the path you should follow. For another example, the traditional teachers of New Oriental are creative talents who express themselves and reveal their individuality, the elite learning elite English learning center of New Oriental's high-end English brand needs teachers who need to pay attention to the personalized needs of students, establish good interaction with students, and highlight students rather than teachers, therefore, New Oriental pays more attention to achievement motivation when recruiting the former, and more attention to affinity motivation and influence motivation when recruiting the latter. Although they are in the same place as New Oriental, employees and companies will suffer if they go to the wrong place.

So how can ordinary college students clearly understand themselves if they lack professional competence? In fact, it is very simple. There are all kinds of evaluation tools on the Internet, most of which are designed based on scientific research results. It is very useful for your own life. Better options include Holland SDS vocational interest testing (online testing), career anchor testing (online testing), LIFO testing, and MBTI testing (online testing), PDP testing, 16pf testing, and disc testing (Online Testing). Many of them are free of charge. Even if they are charged for dozens or hundreds of dollars, its value is more than buying a career package for interviews. In addition, I will make a summary after each interview, review the questions asked by the interview examiner, and seriously think about how to express them more accurately and appropriately, it will quickly improve your understanding of yourself. Another way is to find two or three sincere friends to help you analyze your strengths and bottlenecks and perform SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats ).

All of the above is for college students who are about to graduate. However, when you see thisArticleIt's a little late. So if you are a sophomore, I will be very happy. If you can seize every opportunity from now on, you can quickly take action, try as much experience as possible, and constantly cultivate yourself, after graduation, you will become a workplace "lanbo.
