Stress interview is: "It means deliberately creating a tense atmosphere to understand how job seekers will face work pressure. By asking blunt and impolite questions, the interviewer deliberately makes the candidate feel uncomfortable, and puts forward a series of questions for a certain question or question, and asks the question in the end until he can't answer it. Its purpose is to determine the job seeker's ability to withstand stress, resilience before stress and interpersonal skills. "
How many people will agree with this explanation? I don't know. I don't approve of it anyway. I forgot the stress interview method in the book taught by the teacher again.
My understanding of stress interview's Law is that in the era of talent recruitment, power has been transferred from the seller to the buyer. Under the premise of not affecting the employer's brand and not spreading the employer's brand, it is easy to pave the way for the opening of the business, and the target candidates are inspected and tested in a "cotton needle" way.
summary
"stress interview" is a double-edged sword, which can not only compete with candidates, but also inevitably hurt itself.
2. New trend: transparent company and open interview.
Nowadays, people choose to work, not simply for making more money, but for happy work. They just regard work as a promoting factor of life, which can make them feel satisfied. They also built a moral behavior culture of respecting values, self-confidence, frankness and independence on social media, and brought this standard into their real work and life from the Internet, and they practiced it.
In today's era, every enterprise is naked on the big stage of the Internet, and a naked enterprise should have a good figure like a model. Look at those model league champions, their good bodies are all "trained hard" the day after tomorrow.
Applicants will first pay attention to the information on the Internet: What about this company? TAs don't go to see official website, but rely on search and social media to find out. In cyberspace, you can search the interview situation of any company, good or bad; You will also find various performances of all interviewers in this company. Are they bad or often praised?
summary
Enterprises have already entered the era of streaking. Usually, after receiving the interview notice, the candidates will check the target companies one by one through WeChat, Weibo, Baidu, Douban, Zhihu and other channels, especially the well-known big companies, and there are special websites to collect interview information, such as looking at the websites to see how their companies evaluate.
3, stress interview side effects.
The feeling that the candidate gets in touch with during the interview determines whether he will go to this company. If the stress interview method is adopted at the beginning of the interview, it will be simple, tough and rude without preheating and bedding, and it will easily make the candidates feel that the company is disrespectful, too overbearing, too strong and inhuman (some interviewers may think that this is the effect: the more ruthless the better), which will have a negative impact on the employer brand of the company.
In the Internet age, the interview experience will appear in detail and enlarge rapidly on the Internet, and the media will add various spices, which may add countless troubles to your company. If it does appear, and the whole people know it, I'm afraid the interviewer will be afraid: this is a stress interview for himself!
There is a case: in 20 12, Samsung asked on facebook: "If you could only bring one electronic product on a desert island, what would you bring?" 19000 answered the same question: iPhone, and got 2500 shares and 46000 likes!
summary
Many HR partners feel that "employer brand" has little to do with themselves. In fact, the interviewer's every move has formed a "corporate image" for the majority of candidates, because you may be the only entrance for TAs to understand the company.
4. Smile at people and refuse poker face.
A real case: A salesman born in 1980s saw my opening remarks and said, "Please don't hold a rude and vulgar stress interview. Although I know this position needs such an inspection, I'm tired of it. Can do this, we continue; No, I can't hold up your time. "
Poker face "The interviewer should remember:" We recognize a person first, and then recognize his things. "The hospitable host will care about his guests enthusiastically, so the guests are willing to come again. In fact, many interviewers have a poker face: a cold face is fatal.
Candidates want and must know the interviewer standing in front of them, because their fate is in the hands of the person in front of them. But the "poker face" interviewer can only grab the energy of the candidate like a vampire, which makes people lifeless. Indifference is inaccessible and elusive.
At this time, doubt will take advantage of it and there will be random suspicion in the emotional space between people. Now after 85/90, or even after 00, I don't buy it at all.
summary
Now is the post-90s and post-00s era. Everyone has his own ideas, such as arrogance and low tolerance coefficient, which makes it impossible for old stress interview to carry out.
5. Positive solution stress interview
The purpose of stress interview method is to make candidates use their past experience, skills and knowledge to fly. Only a superb interviewer can do this. A mediocre interviewer can only give people fear and indifference with his own island thinking, but he doesn't know that he is not creative under the control of fear. Under pressure, only mediocre practices can be produced.
Stress interview, not simple and blunt, not deliberately making things difficult, not aggressive, more uncomfortable and more intense. It is a sign of incompetence to show your teeth and stab you like a savage; That kind of behavior, such as "technical poverty", only takes out stress interview after all kinds of helplessness (I have been interviewing for a long time, and I don't know what the applicant is like), just like a trapped beast still fighting, and I lost myself.
With the weapons of the past, without in-depth research and innovation, it is impossible to win tomorrow's war!
summary
In a word, stress interview should work out the coefficient and proportion of interview stress value according to the specific company situation, the degree of work stress and the difficulty of job recruitment.
