April Recruitment month, presumably on the status quo is not satisfied with the children's shoes have been or are planning to change work, talking about changing jobs, then our interview will have to carefully prepared, this article and we share isProduct ManagerSome of the "unspoken rules" in the interview, come together to see it, hope to help you.
I. Recruitment process & Interviewer features
1. Recruitment process
here, I want to say first how your resume is in the hands of the interviewer. A variety of reasons need to recruit new product manager, your immediate leader need to send JD to HR,HR will be based on JD for initial screening. Some resumes to your direct leader hand, see your resume appropriate, inform HR about you interview, this is a more general process. What "unspoken rules" can we see from this process?
Unspoken rules:
1. Most of the products leader JD is very hasty, causing you to look at the recruitment website JD is very empty, basically did not say anything. There are many reasons, such as product leader do not have time to write JD, such as think it should be HR work.
2. From the first rule, it can be concluded that HR screening will be very broad. Because HR is not responsible for the line of business, he doesn't know what kind of person each line of business needs.
3. From the second rule, it can be concluded that many mismatched resumes will be given to the interviewer. Once HR gave me 10 resumes, picked a half-day only 1 can also, mainly the other 9 job content and our business has nothing to do.
4. Most interviewers look at your resume less than 1 minutes, the interviewer will not think carefully about the contents of the resume, only through the first impression of the day, interview communication to evaluate you.
through the above process to tell you that you are very well prepared for the interview, but many interviewers are prepared very hasty. Are you nervous if you don't fight a war without preparation?
2. Direct leader features
The first interviewer is usually your direct leader, he is responsible for the product line is very familiar with, it is possible to participate in the product design work, the details of the product is also very understanding.
Unspoken rules:
1. The interview may ask you about a product (function) of the company's views, how to optimize and so on. This product (function) is very large probability you are not prepared, but do not be nervous, according to their understanding of the product analysis, to draw conclusions. Because you are certainly not more familiar with the product than the interviewer, he just needs to pass your analysis to see what you think about the new product and how much experience you have with it.
2. Most direct leader have no decision on your salary, but most of them.
3. Director VP features
through the direct leader interview, after the interview you will meet the higher title of the interviewer. This interviewer is not directly responsible for the product line, more of the product is responsible for the strategic layer of things.
Unspoken rules:
1. You may be asked what you think of your business, what you have in this area.
2. In general, such interviewers will no longer judge your actual ability to work, but there are exceptions.
two. What do you say in the interview
• Showcase your own way of working
• How to do your own project and why do it
• Why your other product experience is suitable for new business
Many faces have written the interview should say what, I think the above 3 points is still more important.
1. Everyone has a unique way of working, whether it is project advancement or product innovation. If the interviewer is shown to be different from others, it can be said to be a big plus. When you work in a way that works, you may become a team player.
2. The final goal of the product manager's work is that there is no point in the need to be landed. You can talk to the interviewer about how your needs are landed, not limited to the product, but also to expand into business, marketing, project management and so on.
3. Each company's business is not the same, for the manufacturers of products managers responsible for the aspect is more subdivision. However, product ideas and logic are interlinked in different business models, and the essence of Product manager's work is the same. So, to show the interviewer your product ideas, logic, do not flow on the surface of the business.
three. What will the interviewer ask?
• Projects you are involved in
• Open Questions
(1) A person's comprehensive ability can be reflected from your participation in the project. Many interviewers will let you talk about the projects you're involved in, what you've done, and so on. Just to remind one point, can be said to exaggerate a little, but must be able to justify, because you give others your project experience, the other person can really feel what is really what is water. A pause can be a reflection of whether you are in memory or in lie.
(2) Many interviewers will ask some open questions, such as how many taxis and manhole covers are in Beijing. There is no standard answer to this question, but the idea of solving the problem. However, I think that this problem can not be landed in the actual work, belong to ask questions and ask questions. Here I think of one thing, I have added a lot of product manager QQ Group, a group of people to discuss what the product manager needs, an elder brother said he would give priority to learn philosophy, think that kind of people logical ability is definitely super strong, so I retired group.
Four. What is the core of the interview?
The purpose of the interview is certainly to get an offer, the core of the interview I think is the following 2 points:
• Demonstrate to the interviewer that you are qualified for the position
• Use your gas field to infect the interviewer
(1) An interview, for the interviewer, is to prove that you are qualified for the position through the experience of the resume, the communication in the interview, or the speech. So, around this goal, everyone thinks about themselves and what you can do to persuade the interviewer.
(2) In addition to the objective experience of the ability, but also through their own gas field to infect your interviewer. The gas field is from your work confidence, your life experience. I have interviewed a 7-year-old I interview, obviously feel his self-confidence, and this confidence is not simple from the work experience, more is life experience, is a "human reading the autumn Yun Hoo, the world through many Shu road flat" realm.
Five. Finally
the above is only applicable to social recruitment, for school recruit I have not participated in, also have no experience and talk. Some places are more one-sided, but also because each company, interviewers are not the same, and many of the results of the interview is subjective decision, it is difficult to form an objective system to guide everyone to interview.
