Trend Micro is a technically powerful but not well-known company. I feel that they are more interested in the enterprise market than in the personal market. The trend of PC-cillin is a good anti-virus software, but it does not seem to have a high market share in China, which may be related to the market positioning of the trend.
In the first half of the year, I heard that the trend was a company with a relatively high salary in Nanjing. At that time, many people applied for the trend of intern. Although many people had the chance to take the test, they finally failed to join. I have a friend of Grade 9 and Grade 8 in our school who told me that he had switched to a trending job in February and encouraged me to join the trend. I promised with my mouth, but I was wondering if I had a chance.
At the beginning of this semester, campus recruitment for major companies started to kick off. Although I did my own plan for kaobo, it was not smooth because I contacted my mentor, in addition, my experience is mainly engineering, so I still did not miss the opportunity of campus recruitment and began to deliver my resume online. The trend is a company that started online application earlier, so my first batch of online application resumes included the trend and Microsoft. In the online application process, considering that I have no advantages in scientific research, but I still have some experience in project development, I have focused on the project experience, the resume also highlights this aspect as much as possible.
After applying for the website, I naturally attended the campus presentation. I went to the South China University and the Southeast with my classmates to attend many presentations. The presentation of the trend is a deep impression in the middle, Because I posted a book about the trend enterprise, "unstoppable trends", which is very thick and earning a lot of money, haha :) because I am not very familiar with the trend, the presentation will open a window for me to understand the Trend Micro culture. Zhang mingzheng, president of trend, gave a passionate speech, "as long as you are, love to wear jeans, drink cola, love to wear slippers and move around in the office, love to write programs that are used by millions of people around the world, and love new technologies, not afraid of challenges, not afraid of being challenged. We welcome you to join the Internet Dream Team by taking the Trend Micro train!" The recruitment Declaration gives me a very open and free feeling, which is consistent with my character, so I have a better liking for the trend. By the way, I have a lot of knowledge about Microsoft and Mars, so I have not been impressed by Microsoft's presentation, the large amount of candy that the Mars presentation will give me a record of Jack's companies that produce M & M, Rainbow Sugar, and dove. However, the ultra-low admission rate and a large number of open question gave me up my attempt to apply for Jack.
The presentation was lively, but I still had no idea. The trend and Microsoft were so far away from me ......
However, the unpromising waiting is still waiting for the trend and Microsoft's written test notice, and the trend of the written test is very tortuous. On the trending web site, I saw my resume pass the screening and said that I had to wait for the written test notification. However, the written test notification is left-not-right, and finally, I had to follow the instructions on the website and call chinacili.com to ask about the test. This is a Shanghai phone number and I want to transfer it to an extension. I didn't realize that the call would be so difficult: the switchboard can be connected after a dozen times, and a single ext. is busy, and there is no redial or waiting option, the call will be cut off directly. One afternoon, after more than ten attempts, I finally got through the phone when I burned countless phone bills. The other party's staff told me that they would contact me after checking the call. The nervous mood is a little relaxed. However, at pm, the other party still did not contact me. In desperation, he had to call chinacili.com again, but he still couldn't get through. In desperation, I finally got an echo and told me to take the test at China Southern Airlines next day.
The next day, that is, October 15, I went to China Southern Airlines with another friend. He regretted that his resume was not filtered out, so he planned to use the "Overlord pen ". After arriving at China Southern Airlines, I received my undergraduate course and he was about to take the test. So after a hasty lunch, we joined the test room.
The pen questions are divided into two parts. The first part is the question of IQ and Eq. The question of EQ is not scored and is for reference only. The second part is the technical question, there are multiple-choice questions, correct questions, programming questions, QA questions, and some open question. The exam is in English. It is recommended that you use the C/C ++ language to answer questions in English, it can be completed in Java. As there is a clear copyright statement on the question volume, we cannot further disclose the content of the exam here. After the written examination, I published another book named "@ trend". It seems that the trend will indeed promote the enterprise image in recruitment.
This is my first written test, so I still have no experience or experience, and some problems have occurred in the schedule. After going out of the test room, I communicated with my friends and found that I had made many low-level mistakes. However, in general, they also had each other. Therefore, the written examination was finally completed.
On the 16th, It Was Microsoft's written examination and I was paying more attention to a written examination. I arrived at the southern Polytechnic examination room in advance and found that there was also a trend in the examination room, it seems that the trend of the written examination is really haopuan. It is estimated that more than one thousand people have participated in the test rooms of China Southern Airlines, China Southern University and China Southern University.
Microsoft's written examination form is similar to the trend, but it is relatively strict, and the examination form is similar. Because Microsoft's examination paper does not have a copyright notice, you can say more here. It takes a long time, it may be a bit messy. The first part is the multiple choice question, which is related to the technology. I have taken some basic knowledge and have a wide area. Similar to the elevation test, there are also some technologies related to Microsoft, not much. Multiple-choice questions are multiple-choice questions, and the mistake is to deduct points, so people are very nervous. The second part is smart question. There is a major question like this: There are four piano players and four violin writers. The six of them have to take six lessons and there are some rules on Course Arrangement, for example, XX does not teach the first class, XX does not teach after xx, and XX only teaches when another person teaches, and then schedules courses based on some conditions, select possible or impossible course arrangement methods. This question is similar to the typical question of five pets, five pets, five cigarettes in five rooms, five drinks, five drinks, and five cigarettes. However, it is not exactly the same. I have answered a few questions before, but the last few questions cannot be pushed out, so I had to leave it empty and did not dare to guess, for fear of being deducted. After this question, there are some logical questions similar to those in GRE, which are generally difficult. The question of programming is to write a function to find the minimum public multiple of a group of numbers. It is not difficult to solve the problem by moving and division. By the way, what is different from the trend is, microsoft's program questions need to be written into test cases. Therefore, if you think too much, it will be more detailed and time-consuming. Another programming question is to design a Data Structure to store an English dictionary, and write an algorithm to find all words starting with a specific string. This is not very confident, and the data structure does not seem to be well selected. There are a lot of questions in the following: one is to give MSN Messenger a place worth improvement, and assume that you will complete it and give your implementation plan. Another question is a program used to check whether there is a ring in a linked list. If there is a ring, to find the starting node of the ring, you must correct the error and write the test case. Another question is to provide a test case. If you want to develop a function that calls system commands like System in Standard C ++.
Microsoft's written examination is similar to the trend. As no one has discussed it, it still feels good about itself and has not found any low-level mistakes. This test has come to an end.
The following is a long wait. The trend is to promise a response within three weeks. In this process, the trend of friends constantly provide me with some information, such as the progress of the exam approval, scoring methods, etc., also said that so far someone has obtained a full score ~ I'm dizzy. It seems that I'm not playing.
However, on the evening of the 27th, I received a call from trend HR, informing me to go to the company for an interview at AM on the 31st. I'm excited and nervous. I immediately went online to find a friend on the trend and asked him for experience. He told me that dressing should not be formal, because the trend culture is like this. People need to be natural, don't be nervous, don't be frivolous, don't be conceited. Prepare all the content on your resume. The interview may contain English.
I have never participated in an interview, so my heart is really not low. I learned such information and made a slight decision. I learned that wearing formal attire also saves me a bit of trouble because I don't have any formal clothes.
After a few days in the uneasy and active preparations, on the morning of the 31st, I took the bus into the city. In the early morning, the road conditions were quite good. While I was silently remembering the inadequate preparations for self-introduction, I started to think about some common interview questions in English, so that I could get started with my thinking, in this way, you will not be confused when you suddenly hear English, but also calm down your mood. However, when the car was on the bridge, it began to be congested. Later, I realized that it was an air-conditioning car with a burst of tires. As I kept the remaining amount for nearly an hour, so I was not too nervous when I started to block it. However, my car was blocked for more than half an hour on the bridge, and after being blocked for more than ten minutes on the bridge south road, I started to worry, I decided to take a taxi to the company as I looked at the crowded traffic in yancerqiao square. However, I soon found that this was a wrong decision. During the peak hours of work, there were people sitting in the taxis, I had to take the 100 bus. When we arrived at the 12th floor of the Zhujiang Road junction subway building, we arrived 15 minutes in advance as required, but our calm mood had been disrupted by chaos and haste. We sat down and waited, I saw tea, biscuits, and cola on the table, and the service staff were bored. I also took a few copies of the book "unstoppable trends" to show us that my mind was finally calm down. At the same time, it was also found that the recruitment Declaration was not a blow, and many people were walking in the office wearing slippers.
When the time is up, our service staff will take us to their respective interview rooms. I felt so silly that I had always imagined an interview in an empty room. A row of interviewers sat in a row and put a stool in the middle, I sat down there for trial ....... This is a very warm room, with cookies and cola on the round table. It was a one-on-one interview. The interviewer shook hands with me enthusiastically and sat down face to face. I was so nervous that I threw myself out of the cloud that I began to talk to the interviewer freely.
First, I talked about the school. He didn't know about our school. Then, the topic of the discussion was put on his resume. For projects I have worked on, he began to ask related information one by one, interspersed with some difficult technical questions. As I am no longer nervous, and I am familiar with projects I have worked on, it can be said that the interview process is very easy and laughter continues. When he asked me if I was interested, I told him it was music. I said that I like the New Year concert in Vienna. I have to watch the New Year concert every year before I feel that the new year is coming. He was curious to ask, is there a TV in the dormitory? What do you think of at school? I was so relaxed and started to talk about it. I even showed off what I had been visiting the teacher's house who had a good relationship with me in terms of compilation principles. He also asked me about the trend. Like a story, when the CIH virus broke out in 99 years, the China Computer news CD has sent kill2000 and the trend PC-cillin software, and has been talking about attending the presentation to learn more about the trend. At the same time, I have not forgotten to mention my friend who is working on the trend. This will be very beneficial to all applicants. Twenty-five minutes passed without knowing it. Finally, he asked me to raise two questions, so I threw the prepared questions to him, asked about the trend of training policies for new people and questions about study, further study, and opportunities for going abroad, he gave a patient and meticulous introduction. After the interview, he got up and shook hands with me, sent me to the door, and told me with great enthusiasm that I had a good performance and would certainly have a second chance, let me go back and wait for the notification from HR.
On the one hand, I never thought of it. I easily returned to school and did not forget to share my interview experience with my friends. At 8 o'clock in the evening, the HR mm called and notified me to attend the meeting at pm on the first day.
With a successful foreshadowing, I have no fear of the two sides. In the afternoon, I moved forward to the city and sat down for a while in the KFC of jinrunfa, Danfeng Street, continue to sort out the answers to possible questions. Arrive at the company, enter the interview room, and find that the two sides are in the form of two-to-one. The two interviewers are not as enthusiastic as one side, nor as expected to shake hands, instead, I sat down and started the interview. I felt a little heavy and a little nervous. One of the interviewers directly asked me to introduce myself and asked me to explain my understanding of the trend, why I chose to join the trend and my biggest advantages and disadvantages. I have prepared all these questions, but the tense mood and a series of questions from the interviewer still caused me to be incoherent, And the prepared sentences did not come in handy, just a few words to end. After passing through this first level, the content of the subsequent interview directed again to my project experience. The interviewer asked me carefully about each of my project experiences, involving the definition and usage of the primary key foreign key of the database, database performance and security, GDI operations in windows, principles of my laptop security system, C ++ polymorphism, testing and prevention of Memory leakage, etc, in Windows GDI operations, it is even accurate to what API calls are required to draw a straight line. They have not forgotten to embarrass me on some small issues, and sometimes I can only honestly admit that these issues are not taken into account. They also asked me about qa. I did not know much about the answer. I also stressed that I applied for the RD role. Finally, the interviewer asked me in English how I made a leader, because this problem suddenly had nothing to do with the previous one, I didn't understand for a moment whether he said that leader was a leader in project development or a leader when I was a cadre at the seminar. I had to use beg your pardon several times, it was not until he explicitly stated that he was a team leader that I began to answer this question in an influshed English. At the end of the interview, the two interviewers were still buried in their seats without a nest. Thanks, I left the room for the interview.
When I came back, I was really not satisfied with my performance, so I comforted myself if I could still understand it. I didn't expect to continue working hard later at around seven o'clock, the pleasant voice of MM of trend HR sounded in the ear again, notifying me to join the three sides at 10:10 A.M. on the 2 th.
At this time, I also had some knowledge about the situation on the three sides, knowing that the form is group discussion, which is indeed not my strength, I took the time to go online and checked out a decision to participate in group discussions. I also learned some skills from my friends who are on the trend. A small accident occurred in the evening. I accidentally broke my glasses. Although I had spare parts, I was not very comfortable wearing them, so I decided to configure the lens before the next day's interview.
I still arrived at Zhujiang Road very early. Unfortunately, the glasses shop had not opened yet and it had been open until 09:45. I began to prepare glasses. The clerk confidently told me that I could do well before, so let's just configure it. I used the Visa credit card of China Merchants Bank just received a few days ago to make the payment for the first "goods record" in my life. Unfortunately, at 09:50, the glasses were still not well done. I had to wear uncomfortable spare glasses and go to the 12th floor of the subway building again.
In this recruitment trend, there are about one thousand people who have written a test in Nanjing. On one side, there seem to be more than one hundred people. On the other side, there are 41 people left, and there are only 18 people on three sides, it is obvious that a lot of people are waiting for me when I arrive at the company. As a result of group discussions, although I have never been very good at communicating with the students, I also chatted with a few people present, the two of them are from Nanda, the two are from Dongda, and the two are from mm and GG. We will form a group.
When the time is up, we enter the interview location, which is a small conference room. There are three interviewers, one of which is what I met when I met yesterday. The interviewer explained the rules, the group should fully discuss a case, design a solution, and one or more persons should state the case in one hour, and answer the questions raised by the interviewer. Our question is to design a gateway anti-virus product with specific requirements. Under the auspices of Dongda, our group quickly started our discussion. First, we read and understood the questions, discussed the structure of the system together, and quickly determined the layered model, several modules are gradually formed. I have participated in three mathematical modeling experiences, so although the problems are different, I feel that my thinking is still clear. Unfortunately, I am not very confused, the other two Gg can say that, while the MM guys are worse than me, they barely speak. During the discussion, there were still many gaps, and several times I got a tip. To be honest, I am still a little afraid of such activities, so the performance may be a little shrinking. When the time is up, we recommend the GG from Dongda to present a statement on behalf of the Group, and then the GG from Nanda to make a supplement. I am afraid to contract again, and I have added some irrelevant content, the two MMs lost a little, and there was no turn to say anything. Then let's reply. First, we asked the Group's questions. The first question was very acute: "Who did your group carefully read the complete question, especially the content of section 2 ?" When a group of people were in silence, they had to concentrate on their questions. I found that we were too concerned with the questions raised in the first section of the question, and ignored the requirements in the second section. Gg of Nanda started to answer the question, but I felt that he was not very talking about it. So I sorted out his ideas and explained and analyzed the question. The following questions are also specific to the Group and the individual. Each time the Gg of Dongda is the most talkative, the latter is China South University. Generally, I have the least say about two mm. Finally, I asked Gg of Dongda how long it would take for our team to implement our design. He said it would be a month. Now the interviewer is busy, staring at him and asking how the value of "One month" came out? Despite his twists and turns, he still failed to find a reasonable explanation. This may be the most failed part of his perfect performance in the entire interview. Finally, the interviewer asked us a question. My question is: "I know that the trend already has such a gateway anti-virus product. I want to know to what extent the trend has been achieved ." This problem shows my understanding and concern about the trend products, and also expresses my desire to further improve our design. I am conscious that it is still a relatively good problem, the interviewer also gave a detailed answer.
This was a long interview. It took me more than 100 minutes to leave the company. I exchanged contact information with the two members of the same group and agreed that there was a message to communicate with each other, in the afternoon, there was a meeting to keep the advanced nature of Party members in school. After obtaining glasses at the glasses shop, I hurried back to the school.
After the meeting, I went online. When I met a friend who was working on the trend, he told me that I had already passed the three sides. It was an accident! In doubt, the HR mm called again and told me to go to the company to talk about offer at next day. I immediately contacted two members in the same group during the interview, but they had no news. When I got online at night, I met another trend friend. He suggested that I consider how to deal with it if I want to do QA instead of R & D, because it is said that QA is missing this year, so I may be asked to do QA. I am very grateful for his reminder, but I feel that I should not be assigned to the QA department, because my experience is R & D, and I do not understand QA either, I didn't say I would like to do QA during the interview.
However, when I arrived at the company the next afternoon and talked about the offer room, I saw my resume written by the HR manager with the words QA. Fortunately, I was prepared. When I started talking to the HR manager, I expressed my hope for R & D in my position, I also talked about my R & D advantages and potential value to the company. However, he was not at all relaxed, saying that according to the company's evaluation, I was a relatively stable and well-rounded person, which is very suitable for QA positions. If I insist on R & D, i'm sorry. The negotiation is deadlocked. The HR manager suggested that I have a chat with the QA department manager to learn about QA and then make a decision. So he came to the QA manager and gave me a detailed introduction to the trend QA department, which gave me a more comprehensive understanding of QA, I learned that QA is not purely a test as I imagined, but I still cannot decide it at the moment. I communicated with the HR manager again, and he agreed that I had several days to consider it. So I left the company empty hands.
After I went back to school, I spent a few days to learn more about the nature of QA. I also exchanged views with my parents, classmates, and friends. I also learned more from my colleagues who are working on trends, finally, I decided to accept this position. For me, although I have some project experiences, after all, it is also a person who grew up in school and did not really break into the society, the first job is more of a learning and growth opportunity for me. From the perspective of understanding, new people can still learn a lot about the trend and get a lot of training, therefore, it is very helpful for me to accept the position of trend QA.
On April 9, November 7, I contacted trend HR and decided to accept this role and agreed to take an offer from the company in the afternoon. In the afternoon, I arrived at the company and talked with HR. because salaries and benefits are stipulated by the company, they are also very competitive in Nanjing, so there is no time to spend on these aspects, I just asked HR to introduce the welfare details and other companies. After signing the paper, I got the offer of my first job.
At this point, the experience of applying for a job is basically over, and the rest is the examination and signing of a tripartite agreement. On the same day, I also received Microsoft's test score: 7 points, not 7 points in 10 points, maybe 7 points in 100, so the application for Microsoft should have come to an end. However, the score transcript also defines Microsoft's scoring standards. The first two scores do not match the specified score, excluding the remaining scores. It seems that you have to apply for Microsoft, you must pay great attention to the multiple choice questions in the written examination.
I have successfully applied for Trend Micro, which is able to stand out from the competition of famous talents. I think there are several key points.
1. Excellent resumes. resumes should be rich and informative. You must highlight the key points, but remember not to boast about Haikou. Excellent resumes are the basic guarantee for the first round of screening.
2. it is necessary to prepare your resume, written examination, or interview. You should be prepared with the content you want to express, what you want to say, and a calm mind. Full preparation, as much as possible understanding of all aspects of the situation, fight for preparation, it will also make you better.
3. sincerity, honesty, modesty, and enthusiasm are all necessary for the interview. Do not be too arrogant when encountering simple questions during the interview, or be nervous when encountering difficult questions. You can slowly state your ideas and talk about all the things you know, try to show your strengths and capabilities in the most natural way.
4. Persistence, hard work, confidence, and seize all opportunities. If I do not insist on winning the opportunity when I receive the written test notice, this article will not be published today.
5. applying for a technical position, your existing technical strength is not the only factor that determines your fate. However, a solid learning and solid foundation are the magic weapon for your success, we must pay attention to the study of basic theoretical courses. We need to understand and learn new technologies, but we must have breadth and depth at some point. breadth can broaden our thinking. depth is the basic guarantee for you to make sure that new technologies are integrated.
