Chapter 24: Will You Introduce Yourself?
At noon, Ma Yinuo went to the food city of the shopping mall next to him to eat a more hygienic rice set meal to prevent physical discomfort and affect the interview in the afternoon.
After dinner, we walked back to the building of Mingyang Finance. As she walked to the conference room, she took a closer look at the water she had seen in the morning. Before, Marlene had told them that they could come to this place at any time to drink water or drinks, but none of them were too embarrassed to come here to get water, and all they drank was bottled water on the conference table.
Maino saw that the biscuits on the shelves were all best-selling brands, and there was also a ginger-flavored biscuit imported from Germany. Although this kind of biscuit is ginger-flavored, it is more like the rich taste of brown sugar and honey baking, Feng Jianzhao's colleagues brought them when they came back from a business trip to Germany, the fragrance is abnormal, if you dip it in black tea and put it in your mouth, it feels like sitting next to the fireplace on a snowy winter night, baking the fire on the firewood set up, warm and happy. Since Ma Yinuo fell in love with this taste at first sight, when she visited the supermarket, she would pay special attention to whether there was anything sold in the biscuit section, and she also looked for it in the imported food supermarket, but there was none, and even the almighty online shopping showed that it was out of stock. Unexpectedly, there is a water bar in the famous finance! Although she was pleasantly surprised, she still restrained her greed and did not take it.
"The conditions here are so good!" Ma Yinuo sighed silently in his heart as he walked from the Lishi Water Bar to the conference room.
In between lunch breaks, the meeting room was already set up. On the oval conference table in the middle, there is a circle of standing name tags with names printed on both sides, and around the conference table is a circle of chairs corresponding to the name tags. On the other circle of chairs against the wall in the outer ring, there is also a name tag of the same standard.
This seating order is arranged according to the performance and answers in the morning, and Zhang Feng and Ma Lin completed these tasks in just one noon, which is extremely efficient.
A name tag with Maino's name on it is placed in the middle of the elliptical conference table in the inner circle.
When Ma Yinuo saw this form, he felt that it was like the leaderless group discussion mentioned in the book, but it was not true, because this kind of arrangement had more candidates outside than the leaderless group discussion. The other students who entered the meeting had never experienced leaderless group discussions, had not read similar books, and had no idea about the assessment methods that were about to take place.
No one was late in the afternoon, and when it came to the appointed time, everyone sat down in their seats according to their names.
There were five more interviewers who had not appeared in the morning. The five new interviewers are already minister-level figures, one of them is the head of the human resources department, and the other four are the top leaders or senior experts of the business department.
Strangely, these new examiners, along with Zhang Feng and Ma Lin, did not have seats, and all of them held an A4-sized folder, standing around the conference room, only walking around from time to time.
The moderator of the afternoon was Zhang Feng, who said: "Our event this afternoon is not an interview in the traditional sense, nor is it even a leaderless group discussion that is more popular now. This is a form of human resources assessment that has been specially developed by our renowned financial human resources team. It has been verified by practice that the validity is higher than that of similar talent screening methods, and it has won the National Human Resources Evaluation Innovation Award this year, and will be promoted in all branches and subsidiaries of the group next year. A number of well-known companies outside the group also came to exchange and learn in the second half of this year, so it is likely that this form of assessment will be gradually promoted in companies at the same level.
In other words, you have experienced today's appraisal activities, and you have also experienced the cutting-edge results of human resource assessment. As long as you take it seriously, you will gain very valuable experience, even if some of the candidates here are not successful in this selection this time, this afternoon's event will be of great benefit to your future job search and career! ”
All the applicants present applauded excitedly after listening to this inspiring opening remarks.
It was Ma Lin who explained the rules, and she introduced in an orderly manner: "Today's pressure interview is divided into two rounds, the examiner is Mr. Zhang Feng, everyone here, everyone, has the opportunity to become the interviewee, and also has the opportunity to become a referee."
"In the first round, the students who are now sitting at the conference table will be interviewed as interviewees and form a discussion group. Mr. Zhang Feng will give a question, which will be discussed by the interviewed group and submit the answers as required. When the interviewee is discussing, the students sitting in the outer circle are the referees. The referee should give observations and evaluations of the interview team, including both the overall performance of the group and the evaluation of individual performance.
"In the second round, the identities of the interviewee and the referee are reversed, and the students who are now sitting at the referee position will be seated at the conference table, and the students who are now sitting at the conference table will be changed to the referee's seat, and the process of the activity is exactly the same as that of the first round. In other words, the referee of the first round will be the interviewer in the second round, discuss and submit the answers according to the requirements of the examiner; The interviewer in the first round will act as a referee in the second round, giving observations and evaluations.
"The interviewers who stand around the conference room will observe everyone's performance at any time during this stressful interview activity, and will also ask questions according to the different circumstances of each interviewee. Well, now the event begins, and we look forward to everyone's wonderful performance. ”
Zhang Feng immediately took over the scene, and even asked the group sitting around the conference table to introduce themselves first.
Ma Yinuo didn't quite understand the significance of this link, after all, there was everyone's name on the table, and the detailed information had been submitted to the company through the resume, and the interviewer must have mastered the information. But she still began to think seriously about how she should introduce herself.
When it was Mayino's turn, she stood up and said confidently, "Hello everyone! I'm a third-year student majoring in economic law at Garson University. The horse is the horse of the white dragon horse, and Yinuo takes the meaning of a promise of a thousand gold, but 'Yi' is the 'dependent'. I have a strong interest in financial knowledge and management knowledge, and I studied the classic textbooks and management books of the finance major on my own during my graduate studies. In particular, after reading Mr. Zeng Shiqiang's management works that are suitable for China's national conditions, I have some profound thoughts on how to apply my legal knowledge to the financial industry and enterprise management. ”
Ma Yinuo didn't want to take up too much of his time, so he didn't list the teaching experience on his resume, volunteering for environmental activities, and he didn't plan to emphasize his English skills on this occasion.
After the introduction of the people around the conference table, Zhang Feng asked Ma Yinuo's group to stand up with their backs to the conference table, so that everyone could not see the name tag on the conference table.
Next, he asked a question: "In the self-introduction, did any of you remember the name of the other person?" Who do you remember? Why? ”
Everyone raised their hands. One person replied, "I remember Menduoduo because he told a story in his own name and said that his family hoped that he would have a good life in the future, and this way of introducing him was impressive." Another person replied, "I remember Mendodo too, because his name is very special and easy to remember." Another person replied: "I remember Ma Yinuo because she used the idiom of a promise and a thousand gold, and also mentioned the white dragon horse." ”
Zhang Feng asked everyone to turn their heads and sit down, and said meaningfully: "Everyone has seen that in this short self-introduction process, the way you convey information determines whether the other party can accurately receive and remember the information you provide. Communication requires a lot of thought, and not all speeches can be counted as information transfer. I hope that you can learn some experience or lessons from this warm-up session and apply them to the following formal stress assessment process. Think more about how you can make communication more effective so that others understand and remember your point of view. ”
At this time, Menduoduo was triumphant, and Ma Yinuo also felt more confident, but perhaps, they were just more or less crooked. I don't know if it's luck or the communication habits they usually develop, which helped them achieve a small brilliance in the warm-up session.
Those who have not been able to make up their names for others to remember, some are reminiscing and summing up, while others are already starting to get depressed. In this specially designed session, people who suffer from gains and losses have unconsciously produced bad emotions under the pressure of frustration and comparison.
In the following stressful interviews, many students, including Ma Yinuo, did not expect that they would see a different version of themselves, but a more real version of themselves than usual.
