Chapter 849.Strange Questions in Interviews
Strange questions in the interview Zhang Baotong 2018.7.2
Recently, I have seen a few strange questions in interviews, and these strange questions are really strange, and I tried to answer them like a riddle, but I couldn't answer them. For example, this question: What is soft at first, but it becomes hard after a few movements? I immediately wondered if this was a child's cock, but when I saw that this was a question asked by a female examiner, I felt that the answer was definitely wrong. However, after thinking about it, I still can't think of it. The last answer turned out to be "fried fritters." ”
Three other candidates made it all the way to the finals, and in the final interview, the female examiner asked them the same question, "I have a period, can you help me get a cup of hot water?" The first two interviewers did not know how to answer and were not admitted, while the third interviewer replied, " This kind of thing should be divided into two situations, the first is that if the pain is mild, I will help you make a cup of red date ginger cold tea, and the second is that if the pain is so severe that you can't work, I will send you to the hospital for relevant treatment, after all, you didn't make things clear, according to different degrees of abdominal pain, there should also be different treatments. The female interviewer was very satisfied, thinking that he was able to consider the problem on a case-by-case basis, and thought about it comprehensively, so she hired him on the spot.
However, these two questions seem to have nothing to do with work, because how can "fried fritters" and "menstruation" be related to recruiting staff? The interview question is, "If you are on a business trip alone and have to deal with a very urgent incident, and at this time the family calls to say that your father is seriously ill and needs you to rush home as soon as possible." What do you do about it?" If you don't rush home, you don't even have the most basic filial piety. So, you might call home to take care of your father's condition, and then say that you have an urgent matter to do, and you will rush home as soon as you finish it. This may be the way many people think and deal with it. However, if you do the same, you will still lose the election. Because that's not what the interview examiner wants.
It is said that today's job interviews are not only about the professionalism and ability of job seekers, but also about their ability to respond. A candidate who thinks quickly and reacts quickly will be more favored by interviewers. However, I can't help but wonder if this interview method can really recruit the employees and talents that the company wants? If the interviewer just wants to choose one random person from among the interviewees, and the interview is just for a show or a show, then it doesn't matter. Anyway, the company lacks a position, as long as it fills it, it doesn't matter who fills it. Therefore, the examiner can make up an exam question as he wants, and then recruit the person he thinks is satisfactory, as for whether this person is really good and whether he is the best candidate, it is not something he can consider.
We always have all kinds of questions about the lifelong test, but many interview methods are actually a lifelong conclusion. You can't just meet in person or ask a few questions to understand everything. People have different abilities, some people can speak well, some people are bored and practical, some people are good at superficial things, and some people are not good at improvisation. And this kind of interview will only allow those who are able to speak well and be good at performance. Perhaps this kind of interview can recruit a quick-thinking and responsive candidate for the company, but what the company really wants is a hard-working, down-to-earth and practical person.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Guiguzi said, "One day has long eyes, two days fly ears, and three days have bright trees." Thousands of miles away, in the subtle, is called a 'hole'". This means that we need to observe the people and things around us carefully and get the information we need from them. First, in terms of employing people, we must not generalize and be targeted. Second, in terms of knowing people, we should not make conclusions based on one side of the relationship alone, but should get to know the person deeply through conversation. Third, we can't use the same set of rhetoric to deal with everyone, we must learn to be flexible. There is an old Chinese saying: The road knows the horsepower, and the people will see the hearts of the people over time. It is said that it is not a matter of one or two days to understand a person, it takes a long process. But we know that companies are busy and can't spend too much time observing or hiring people, but can we put it in a practical and effective way?
I remember reading the story of a black American named Henry who applied for a job. At that time, the United States was in the midst of the Great Depression, and it was difficult to find a job. He ran to many companies and didn't get a job. On this day, he came to apply for a job at a large company in New York. Because he had misremembered the time, he arrived at the place of application an hour early. At this time, he saw a company employee cleaning and tidying up the office, so he took the initiative to clean the windows, wipe the table, and organize the items for the company employee. Once he had cleaned up his office and the hiring had begun, the company had announced to the people who had come to apply that the recruitment was over, and that the person they were hiring was Henry. A few decades later, Henry became a well-known corporate tycoon in the United States.
When he was young, the French banking tyco, Chaco, sought a job as the chairman of a bank 52 times. When he walked out of the bank in despair after being rejected for the last time, he saw a pin on the ground in front of the bank's gate and bent down to pick it up. Unexpectedly, the bank sent him an offer the next day. It turned out that Chako's behavior of bending down to pick up a pin happened to be seen by the chairman. From his behavior of bending down to pick up pins, the chairman saw his noble moral cultivation and strong sense of responsibility, and saw the qualities that an excellent employee should have.
A shop owner in Lingshi County, Shanxi Province, was introduced to a teenage worker, who only had food and housing, and had no wages. But there are many valuables in the shop every day, and the people in the shop must be clean and not sneaky. For this reason, the boss wants to test the little worker, and if he finds out that there is misconduct, he will be driven away immediately. So he dropped a silver dollar on the ground. The next morning, the little worker got up early to clean up, picked up the silver dollar on the ground, and handed it to the boss. The boss felt that the child was honest and trustworthy, so he let him learn to manage accounts and ship. Although this child is not educated, he is diligent and studious, and he is also a smart person, and his accounts are always penniless. The boss recruited him as his son-in-law to inherit the family business. The boy lived up to his expectations and later became a well-known wealthy businessman in modern China. If we take the interview method we mentioned earlier, what will be the fate of these successful business people?
There should be a process for recruiting someone, just like falling in love, although two people fall in love at first sight, there must be a process of falling in love. This process allows you to get to know the other person more clearly and comprehensively, and finally determine whether the person can be entrusted for life. Otherwise, when we see each other handsome, well-dressed, and personable, we like each other very much, but we don't know that he has many bad things that make you hate.
Nowadays, the competition between business and business is fierce, and the focus of the competition is on talent. Recruiting an excellent talent will make the company continue to grow and develop, and recruiting a mediocre talent will lay a hidden danger for the company's development. Therefore, we must not treat the recruitment of employees as a false game, but should be serious, down-to-earth through a rigorous and effective way, those with real talents, practical and hard-working talents concentrated in the company, as long as there is a unity and innovation, positive and enterprising work team, the company's career will be vigorous and thriving.
