Chapter 35 The Common Phrase "Proficient in the Use of Office Software"

Ma Yinuo didn't sleep well this night and always woke up. Even when I was asleep, I kept dreaming that I was lost in the wilderness, and no matter which direction I went, I was walking through a tall field of weeds, and I couldn't see the road or the sky.

Because I didn't sleep well, I was a little irritable the next morning.

But the advantage of being young is that no matter how late you sleep or how badly you sleep, you are still a good man when you wake up. Freshen up and dress up, you can still refresh, and then cover up with foundation, and you won't see anything wrong at all.

Although there were many unpleasantness the night before, Ma Yinuo still insisted on his self-cultivation, greeted Sister Feng who had just woken up, and told him which canteen to eat buns and tofu brains for breakfast, and in which direction to go to the station to get the campus shuttle, before wrapping up in his coat and going out to meet a new competition.

In the temporary waiting area of the teaching building, a student who had just been interviewed was enthusiastically imparting the interview experience to the cadres who had not yet entered the school.

Being able to tell others the interview questions you know in the interview waiting area without concealment is also a unique scene in colleges and universities.

After really working, there will be no such questions and answers between people who have a competitive relationship. In the battle for the deer with a limited number of places, if anyone asks questions about the exam questions, they will be evaluated as scheming or pretending to be ignorant of the world; If you answer truthfully, you will be laughed at by others behind your back and think you are a fool.

"They saw that I wrote 'proficient in the use of office software' in my resume, so they asked me to process a set of data with functions in Excel on the spot, and asked me to make a pivot table, and also took a 'macro' test, which we haven't usually learned. That's what I said, 'I can't now, but I can learn', haha! I think it should be answered so that they can know that we have a positive learning attitude. Don't just say you won't be done, but emphasize that you're willing to learn. ”

A "listener" was a little panicked and said: "I also wrote 'proficient in the use of various office software', isn't it written on the resume template on the Internet, it's really a test, and it's so deep?" ”

Another person said: "The test is so biased!" I was afraid that today's interview would be difficult, so I specially went through the textbooks. It's not in the scope of what I've usually learned, so I've reviewed it in vain. "In addition to recruiting for the position of legal affairs specialist, this company also recruits accounting positions, and this wave is all accounting students who know each other well.

"Fortunately, Jingyu taught this trick, otherwise, I would have to say 'I'm sorry, I won't'." Some students were glad to have received a coping plan.

The plan provided by that classmate Jing Yu is indeed a more classic answer in the interview bible spread on the Internet, but there is a major logical flaw: if a person really has the strong enthusiasm for learning presented by this sentence, why didn't he learn it before?

Just like at this time, the same information is obtained, some people are glad that they have picked up a small trick to deal with it, and those who really have study habits have taken out their mobile phones and started to search and read articles on how to organize data with Excel.

In fact, the company's interview test is not biased, these are just the usual office software applications in the real financial accounting work environment, and what is taught in the school is the academic and theoretical far away from the office environment, focusing on the underlying logic of building talents. Students are generally unaware that they should supplement these skills that seem unrelated to their majors but are actually useful, so the practical skills mastered by the average graduate are far from sufficient compared to the needs of the real environment.

Maino discovered this problem while writing his undergraduate thesis. In the past, when she was writing articles, she only used Word as a typing tool, and once she encountered complex typesetting requirements, she always had to search the web page and fiddle with the examples for a while, which was a waste of time.

It was with this experience that at the beginning of her master's thesis, she simply bought an online course, soaked in the "Bubble Old Times" coffee shop for two full days, and followed the software engineer to learn all the operation functions of Word in front of the computer.

After finishing the study, I didn't feel like it was enjoyable, and I finished the search class that I bought and gave away. It turns out that the seemingly simple search function is so particular about how much attention is paid to use. With these skills mastered, the information she retrieved was more accurate and comprehensive.

Since Wei Yuanyuan discovered that Ma Yinuo had a search "stunt", as soon as he encountered something that he couldn't find, he asked Ma Yinuo to search. Since then, Wei Yuanyuan has become more and more aware of the situation of his idols, and his status in the fan group has also risen sharply, and he is so excited that he calls Ma Yinuo "an invincible opponent all over the world".

When Ma Yinuo went in for an interview, the interviewer really asked her about office software.

"You are studying law, so let's adjust this contract according to this format." Since I have taken the exam on how to use Excel for accounting students, of course, I will also take the exam on how to use word for law students.

Maino looked at the exam questions:

"(1) Grading the text: the title of the contract is level 1, the title of the contract chapter is level 2, and the other text is set as the body text;

(2) Automatically number the headings of each chapter;

(3) Automatically generate directories;

(4) Use "section breaks" to separate chapters. ”

The test is a relatively basic operation method, Ma Yinuo has a clear idea, and classifies the text in the outline view, as for numbering, inserting directories and pagination, it is to click the corresponding button in the ribbon, and the operation is quickly completed.

The interviewer saw that she had finished editing with three clicks and five divisions by two, and was very satisfied.

This kind of question is not difficult, no matter what academic background, as long as you have operated it a few times in the job, anyone who can use a computer can learn it. It is this kind of question that has failed 90% of college students. The fundamental reason why this company takes this kind of question is to test whether the interviewer is a player with low eyesight, maybe the knowledge itself is not important, but the consciousness and state often accompany a person's entire career.

The interviewer asked a few routine questions, and Ma Yinuo answered them all correctly.

In addition to the people in the human resources department, the company's regional leader in Fengxia City was also present in person, and he was very satisfied with Ma Yinuo's outstanding performance, and confirmed that he wanted to sign her on the spot.

Obviously, this is another leader who does not listen to the persuasion of the human resources department.

The HR department repeatedly stressed that it should not make a decision to hire a candidate on the spot because of a variety of considerations, such as the need to carefully conduct further background checks and qualification checks, or to avoid discouraging the motivation of subsequent candidates in order to have several alternatives. Or, to avoid the effect being too dramatic, causing the interviewer to question the company, and a recruitment accident similar to the foreign company's hasty decision on the school flower of a foreign language college.

In the face of the olive branch thrown by the company's leaders on the spot, Ma Yinuo was a little flattered and moved, and said to the leader honestly:

"Thank you for your recognition and affirmation of me, thank you very much. You trust me so much, and I have to be honest with myself, I just interviewed a company in Mingyang Group, and they will probably send me a notification right away, and I hope you will give me some time to think about it. Although there will be notices from the two companies she interviewed recently, she immediately thinks of Mingyang Finance, and she only thinks about Mingyang Finance in her words.

After all, she was a student on campus, and she was still young, and she didn't know how to say anything to alleviate this embarrassing scene, so she added, "I'm very sorry!" ”

At this time, the top leader had already realized that the words reminded by the human resources commissioner were really well-intentioned, and at the same time, he was a little sorry that his company was not the first choice of this candidate.

But he has been experienced for a long time, and he did not show the slightest displeasure, but laughed heartily at the human resources commissioner: "Haha, I have a good vision, Mingyang Group is also robbing me!" Then he turned to Ma Yinuo and said, "Yes, it's normal for people to wait for news, and you don't have to be embarrassed, little pony." Less, give the pony a business card. When you decide, call your brother Yu and you communicate. ”

Then, he stood up and moved his shoulders and cervical spine, and said seemingly improvisedly: "Xiaoma, among your classmates, are there any classmates that you think are pretty good, and I recommend it to your brother Yu." We've been too busy lately, and we haven't made a lot of publicity, and many excellent students don't know that our company is hiring. I can trust you, and it will be a favor for me to introduce your law school classmates to me! Ha ha! ”
