November【2】

The rainy season is always long, but there are a few days of intermission, even if the haze does not accumulate in the drizzly sky, adding a bit of drowsiness and exhaustion to the humid and increasingly cold air, and finally stops the sad rain. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

Fortunately, at such a time when the weather was slow and slightly clear, Ji Wei began to receive interview calls, arrangements and notifications, and her life gradually became busy. For those who are accustomed to having something to do, busyness is indeed the best medicine for self-pity.

So, on this day, Xiao Nizi spent most of the day collecting and comparing the information of each company, and listed a long list of job opportunities, and marked a series of related keywords such as strengths, weaknesses and development prospects - this priority considered not only the strengths and weaknesses of each company, but also the job prospects they offered. Of course, Ji Wei planned to participate in these eight or nine interview opportunities one by one early in the morning to ensure that she had collected all the information, felt the culture and environment of each company, and made the greatest possible sure that her final decision was not biased too much.

Just collect and sort, sketch and draw, and answer a few phone calls, and the itinerary is quickly established.

His thoughts were set, and before he was ready to meet a new round of challenges, Ji Wei called Guan Yunyun, who had not been in touch for a long time.

"Xiaoyun, I'm unemployed." I never thought that I would use such words as an opening statement, and after the phone was answered, Ji Wei couldn't help but smile bitterly. Who knows, what she never expected was that Guan Yunyun would reply to her with such a sentence-

"Ji Wei, I'm out of love......"

"What? Lovelorn? Break up with Xu Yunfeng?! Ji Wei's voice unconsciously rose several degrees.

"yes...... Yes? Ji Wei, what did you just say? …… Are you unemployed? What do you mean? What about your company......" Guan Yunyun seemed to suddenly come to his senses, and his tone was full of disbelief.

"For all kinds of force majeure reasons, the company was dissolved." Ji Wei replied, and then asked, "Why did you break up?" Aren't you about to get married? ”

Guan Yunyun sighed deeply...... "I am also due to various irresistible reasons...... Anyway, I'm exhausted. ”

Ji Wei didn't ask anything anymore, although there were no details, she already felt the piercing pain of her friend.

Guan Yunyun also didn't want to ask the story behind the dissolution of Ji Wei's company for the time being, she knew that when the time came, Ji Wei herself would say it.

So, after a few simple greetings, the two friends hung up the phone and began to face the next healing period.

Early in the morning, Ji Wei changed into neatly ironed clothes, and dressed up and headed for the two interviews arranged on the itinerary that day-

The interview for the morning was from a state-owned enterprise in the telecommunications sector that was recruiting a department manager vacancy for a new branch that was completely new to them. The new company is located in an extremely remote area of Pudong, and it is estimated that it will take at least an hour and a half to reach it by subway and then bus. Perhaps it is the subconscious knowing that this place is far away, and it is necessary to avoid being late as much as possible; Or facing the first interview since unemployment, Xiao Nizi is still quite nervous and uncomfortable, so that although the interview is about half past nine in the morning, she will wake up naturally before six o'clock in the morning.

Washing, dressing, dressing, and changing cars, it was only a quarter past nine when he arrived at the destination, but standing at the door of this dusty and locked building, Ji Wei was so puzzled that he frowned...... Because, no matter how you look at it, this building doesn't look like the atmosphere of a technology company, but more like a filming venue for Resident Evil. It's still early, and there is still time to explore, Xiao Nizi circled around the building several times, and finally found a freight elevator next to the kitchen of a restaurant that could go straight to the eleventh floor of the destination.

When she arrived on the eleventh floor and saw the logo of the technology company behind a large glass door, Ji Wei finally found a feeling of coming to a technology company for an interview. I pressed the doorbell and looked at my phone, it was exactly half past nine. After waiting for two or three minutes, a burly and bearded "uncle" boy opened the door for her. After a brief self-introduction, Ji Wei learned that he is currently the only project manager and chief planner of this company, and may also be the boss of the QA (quality inspection department). Then, Xiao Nizi followed the quick footsteps of "Uncle", bypassed the large empty work area, and came to a conference room of Nuoda to wait for today's interviewer.

After another long wait, perhaps twenty to thirty minutes, a middle-aged man dressed in formal clothes slowly walked into the conference room and introduced himself as the company's director of operations. Ji Wei wondered "why is the director of operations coming to interview the manager of the development department", while smiling and shaking hands in a friendly manner. Immediately, the interview began.

The beginning of the interview is still modest, with a long self-introduction followed by more exciting Q&A sessions.

The first is the lengthy "What does the XXXX post do?" "List the time, for example:

What do creative directors typically do?

What do line managers typically do?

What do planners usually do?

……

This is followed by the corresponding "How does the XXXX department work?" "List the time, for example:

How does the development department typically work?

How does a QA department typically work?

How does an operations department typically work?

……

In this way, there are 100,000 "Why is it arranged?" "Q&A time.

In the face of such a wide range of questions covering almost all positions and related processes in the entire industry, Ji Wei obediently answered them one by one (yes, after all, they are interviewers), and two or three hours passed after this round. At the closing stage, the interviewer summed it up as follows: "Why is it so complicated? I thought the industry was very simple! If you look at the popular software on the market now, they all look very simple. And -- they all seem to be very profitable, just do it as you like, and you can make a lot of money in a few people or a few months...... By the way, what kind of software is the foreign platform you just said is very popular? Is it famous? On what platform? I have absolute confidence that I can do better than all of them......"

Ji Wei blinked, feeling that what she said before was indeed in vain.

When she walked out of the door of the building, it was already past noon, and Xiao Nizi hurried to the second interview hungrily, and did not forget to delete the company from the list of candidates in the mobile phone memo during the hurry.

Of course, "choosing a job" is in a way the same as "choosing a boss". It is difficult for a leader who does not know anything at all to work with an experienced subordinate. Oh, that's probably too much of a drag...... Or for example: Facing the boss who wants to knock off "Blue Cat 3000 Questions" to challenge "HelloKitty", Ji Wei feels really powerless to deal with it, because she has never had the patience to watch an episode of "Blue Cat 3000 Ask".

The second interview was with a domestic outsourcing company, and this time it was also a part manager position. This company is located in the downward direction of Putuo District. This remote location, combined with the interview in the morning, gave Xiao Nizi a chance to get to know the north-south traffic line across Shanghai, and also gave her a chance to go on a hunger strike to lose weight. --I didn't have time to solve lunch, Ji Wei rushed to the destination, the time was just right, three o'clock in the afternoon.

This interview feels the opposite compared to the morning one, the interviewer is a "turtle" department "half AB can also C", a little background, also understandable, although Chinese is not very good, but can be said and willing to express (so call him "half AB can also C" - there is EnglishAbility can also Chinesesay Asay). Based on the above information, it is not difficult to see that this interview was relatively easy. Except for the initial self-introduction time and some questions and answers about the process and experience, almost all of the interviewers are speaking half English and half English and Chinese. Before the interview was over, Ji Wei learned about the basic operation of the company, and even the interviewer's life could be memorized seven or eight points, which was really easy. It's just that after learning that the company is so 100% outsourcing company system, and the role of the department manager position in this company and the daily work are so boring, Xiao Nizi hesitated a little.

Soon came to the end of the interview, naturally talking about salary expectations, Ji Wei had a good understanding of the market, so he reported a low monthly salary expectation of 25,000 before tax (this figure is based on the size of the company and the relevant content of the position), the moment the digital exit, the interviewer sitting opposite the expression was obviously deflated. However, at the end, he still said: "If I pass the report, we will make an offer directly, probably ...... Thenumberwillbedifferentwithyourexpectation。 ”

“OK,thanks!” Ji Wei replied with a smile and closed the curtain.

Of course, there is a two-way choice for each audition, but in any case, you need to maintain a positive and patient state for each employer, so as to respect both the other party and yourself.

After coming out of this interview, it was almost less than five o'clock, and the sky was already gray.

Ji Wei took out her mobile phone while thinking about where to find some food, but suddenly found that Chen Xiaotian had made several calls during the interview, and the mobile phone had been on silent before, so naturally he couldn't hear or answer, but now he had to call back quickly so as not to miss him in any emergency.
