Thick skin one: take the initiative to come to the door for an interview.
If the job seeker is still waiting for the interview notice, instead of waiting for the opportunity to come to the door, it is better to take the initiative to go to the door for the interview opportunity. Maybe you're worried that HR's sudden visit will give you an interview? According to the practical experience of netizens in this year's graduate employment forum, only thick-skinned people may have a chance!
Special positions require job seekers to have the courage to "take the initiative to come to the door"
Recently, a survey data on HR in the forum of job hunting for fresh graduates showed that 18.7% of the respondents indicated that job seekers had taken the initiative to ask for an interview, which was commendable and would definitely give job seekers an interview opportunity. Netizen "God of Wealth" posted: "I like to recruit this kind of job seekers, especially sales positions. According to my past experience, their sales performance is still very good. Sales positions require candidates to have this initiative and there is no opportunity to create opportunities. "
60% HR said that if the job is not busy, it will give job seekers an interview opportunity.
Job seekers take the initiative to ask for an interview, which is bound to be a bit sudden for HR whose daily work is very complicated. However, according to the survey data of recent graduates' job forum, 60% HR will consider interviewing job seekers when they are not busy at work. Netizen "beth" posted: "After all, newcomers are guests, job seekers take the initiative to come to the door, and some courtesy reception is still necessary. If the company happens to be recruiting for this position, I will definitely go for an interview if time permits. However, it is recommended that job seekers can make an appointment by phone in advance to make HR psychologically prepared, so that the interview will be smoother. "
"Take the initiative to come to the door" should be psychologically prepared for "closing the door"
Most HR said that if they are not busy at work, they will give job seekers an interview. If HR is too busy, job seekers will be turned away. According to the sharing of HR in the forum of job hunting for fresh graduates, it is usually busy on Mondays and Fridays, but it will be busy for a whole week at the end of the month and the beginning of the month, because there are various reports to be made. Of course, this information is not absolute and is for reference only.
In our survey, 2 1.3% HR took a "impartial" attitude: no invitation in advance, no interview opportunities for job seekers. Netizen "HR face" posted: "I can't accept job seekers who take the initiative to come to the door. As HR, there are many trivial things every day. Suddenly someone came to ask for an interview, indicating that the job seeker would arrange my time. I'm not prepared at all. How can I go for an interview? Even if I take time out for an interview, the department manager may not have time. "
Netizen "Jiaozi No.1" posted in the forum of job hunting for recent graduates: "Whether the door-to-door interview can be received by HR depends on luck and character!" There is really no absolute statement about this matter. There may be a chance if you do it, but there is absolutely no chance if you don't do it. Netizen "Many Many 8808" posted: "I won my present job by myself. Although it would be presumptuous to take the initiative to visit, I think we still have to fight for it. " Summon up your courage, go to the door for an interview, and look at the results with a normal heart. Maybe there will be unexpected gains from "inadvertently inserting willows into the shade"?
Thick-skinned 2: Re-submit your resume after being rejected.
A netizen once said .. com on bbs, "I have interviewed many companies, some of which I like very much but have not been selected. So, I think it's a pity to miss a good company. So, I have questions. I don't want my company today, and I gave up because of my various shortcomings. If I interview for a position in this company again, will it hinder me? "
In fact, submitting resumes and interviews to a favorite company is rejected by the company, which happens every day in the job search process. The difference is that some job seekers missed it, and some job seekers are willing to "have the cheek" to find another opportunity, or resubmit their resumes, or directly call HR for another interview. But does it work?
For those who submit their resumes again soon after the interview failed, most HR said that they would not be given another chance. "If you are not accepted after the interview, it means that the applicant must have something that does not meet the requirements. Rescheduling the interview will definitely deny the previous conclusion and will also bring confusion to the previous interviewer! "
Of course, it does not rule out another situation, that is, after this failure, job seekers have exercised themselves and improved their abilities by working in other companies. At this time, job seekers might as well try again. The reasons are: first, you have made up for your own shortcomings, and the reasons for not being admitted before have been eliminated; Second, few companies have statistics on those who failed the interview. The longer the time span, the less likely you are to be remembered by HR, and the less likely HR will judge you with previous prejudices.
Thick-skinned three: speak out your salary requirements boldly
According to a survey data (www..com) about the job hunting of fresh graduates, 30% of the interviewees said during the interview that it was "difficult to talk about salary", especially women. 56% of the recipients said that they would "directly tell their psychological price"; 5% of the respondents will increase their salary within the range of 10% after the company makes an offer; 8% of the respondents will increase their salary by 10% ~ 30% after the company makes an offer.
For most job seekers, interview salary has always been a headache for technical work. If you accidentally drop your salary, the fact of "big sale" will make you panic; On the other hand, if it is beyond the company's tolerance, the cooked duck will fly away. But in any case, talking about salary is an unavoidable hurdle in the interview process. However, at present, most job seekers are in the embarrassing situation of "taking as much as the company says", and the reasons for this phenomenon are "difficulty in finding a job" and "lack of courage" of job seekers themselves. The only way to get rid of this situation is to practice "thick skin".
When the company asks about "expected salary", as a job seeker, you may wish to speak your mind boldly. Concealing or compromising will only make you "dumb to eat Huanglian". You know, under normal circumstances, it is difficult to get a raise in a short time after joining the company. Of course, this does not mean that you can "overcharge" the company, and it is still discouraged in the job search process.
Cheeky four: take the initiative to call and ask about the interview results.
After the interview, the company generally doesn't give a reply immediately whether to hire or not, but needs the job seeker to wait for the notice. However, when the waiting period approaches or passes, the notification is delayed. At this time, is it necessary for job seekers to call the company to ask about the interview results?
A: Call to improve the interview success rate.
The cost of making a phone call is extremely low, but it is possible to win a job opportunity you like, so this phone call is worth making.
First of all, the best time to call is one or two days before and after the waiting period (if the waiting period given by HR is within one week). If you call too early, HR will think you are too impatient. In addition, for some companies, the process of deciding to hire employees takes some time to handle. If you call too early, you won't get an accurate answer. If you call too late, HR may have forgotten your interview. Even if you remember, the position you applied for may have been decided, and it is futile to call.
Secondly, pay attention to the wording and content when making a phone call. Ask more open-ended questions instead of asking them directly, such as "Do you want to know if your company is satisfied with me?" Instead of "when will your company give me the employment notice?" ; Remember to sincerely express your gratitude to the company for the interview opportunity and your willingness to join your company.
Avoid: ask for the phone number once.
As the saying goes, there are only three things. Just call once or twice. There's no need to call again. Otherwise, it will make the other party feel that you are difficult and have low emotional intelligence. Originally, the other party was satisfied with you, but it didn't meet the requirements of the position you applied for. Maybe the company will let you know next time there is a suitable position. But if you keep pestering, even the future opportunities are lost. Sometimes it's not that you are excellent, but that you need to match the company culture or the requirements of the position you are applying for. Don't think about what you have done wrong, just don't have a chance.
Five types of thick skin are unacceptable.
Resume exaggeration/water injection
Cheeky index ★★
Hate index ★★★★☆.
Example: Xiao has just graduated, and she participated in a project of an internship company during the internship stage. Xiao said in his resume that he was the person in charge of the project and won the XXX award from the internship company. During the interview, HR asked Xiao A in detail about the background, implementation and final profit of the project, but Xiao A only participated in part of the content and could not reply perfectly.
Comments: Although a flat resume is not attractive, an overly packaged and exaggerated resume is even more annoying. Even if you barely have an interview opportunity, HR's critical eyes will make you "waste martial arts" and may be considered "dishonest".
Stay and fight for a job (such as investing in the sea or questioning the phone). )

For several months after Anson resigned, his job search was fruitless. Not long ago, a favorite company gave him an interview. After the interview, the company replied that if there is no phone call within a week, it means that the interview failed. A week later, Anson wanted to call to ask if he passed, but the interviewer was not in. Ansen was eager to find a job and asked others for the interviewer's mobile phone, but was rejected.
Comments: Generally, information such as mobile phones belongs to private information, and cannot be recovered actively unless the other party allows it.
Be familiar with the first interview, eg by calling the other person dear.

Example: Cindy is usually lively and cheerful, and she is the kind of person who "shines with a little sunshine". Cindy relaxed her nerves during the interview because she thought the interviewer was very kind and humorous. She talked to Kan Kan, the interviewer. She danced and winked at the interviewer.
Comments: Although it is easy for self-acquainted people to break the deadlock in the workplace and talk and laugh with each other, it is a taboo to use it in job interviews. In fact, in our communication, we will grade our feelings with others and treat different people accordingly. During the interview, individuals need to show some awe and humility, keep their distance from the interviewer and avoid physical contact.
After being exposed by HR in the interview, he refused to admit his mistake.

Example: Nick had a one-year career gap, and when he filled out his resume, he classified this period as attending some personal training. When HR further asked about the specific training, Nick's answer was evasive. When HR asked Nick to confess everything, Nick felt that HR was suspicious of him and refused to answer.
Comments: It is better to be honest with each other and seek approval than to be furious after a lie is exposed. ;
