Recently, a malignant disease called "job phobia" is spreading in colleges and universities all over the country. Many cases of graduates' job hunting failure show that whoever is infected will definitely have an impact on their future development. At present, these graduates are complaining about how to overcome it.
Who makes the present job so competitive? In the crowded recruitment scene, many young people with poor job-hunting performance are often frustrated in job hunting. Some people who are too "afraid" may get a high impression at the recruitment site, but in the later written interview, they will take the initiative to go out, or be afraid of being eliminated by too fierce competition, or fail because of a slightly wrong answer in one or two sentences.
Actually, you don't have to worry too much. In a sense, "job phobia" can be described as everyone's, but the intensity of performance and the depth of illness are different.
Then, let's take a look at their anti-terrorism performance in employment.
On the way to job hunting: regulating fear with flowers
Mei Qing, an accounting graduate, felt particularly nervous when she went to a large foreign-funded enterprise for an interview. After all, she wants this job so badly. So she simply slowed down and bought herself a bunch of flowers in a nearby flower shop. Smelling the flowers along the way, she felt really much better. At this time, she suddenly realized that job hunting is a competition of wisdom, perseverance and even money, and a relaxed attitude is very important.
There is no doubt that Mei Qing's interview was quite successful. "It is too important to adjust your status correctly and timely in job hunting." This is the first sentence she said when she returned to the dormitory.
Anti-terrorism experts suggest that it is not easy for college students to find jobs now. If they want to seek their due social status, they must return to their usual state, abandon their nervousness and release their potential.
Meeting for the first time: everything is easy to discuss.
Chen Jinsong of the newspaper is a senior reporter now. Tell me his major, you may not believe it: mathematics. When he applied for a job in a newspaper, several college students who went with him said, "What kind of reporter do you want to be?" But he knows in his heart that people mark their professional counterparts and just want to find useful talents. Since you have the ability to be a reporter, you don't have to worry about your major. In addition, the grandfather who did business taught him a word from an early age: make money harmoniously. He believes that he can talk about anything as long as he has the sincerity.
Sure enough, in the meeting with newspaper leaders, Xiao Chen left an excellent impression on the editorial board of the newspaper, especially his eloquence and philosophical attitude in his speech, which made people amazed. What's more, some news works he published in the school model newspaper have already reflected his level. It takes a lot of courage to be a reporter. Xiao Chen dared to apply under unprofessional circumstances, which was greatly appreciated by several editorial boards. Other college students who went with them failed because of their average level. It seems that Xiao Chen is optimistic about the word "practical ability". When a job seeker has it, everything else is "negotiable".
Anti-terrorism experts suggest that for college graduates with little experience in job hunting, one thing is often unclear: when looking for a job, don't just stare at the recruitment conditions. After all, those "death" conditions are implemented on you, and you can negotiate with the employer again.
Written interview: focusing on intelligence and personality test.
"written test, interview, how so troublesome!" Yao 2 1 year-old graduate, planning to enter a big company, but seeing this requirement, he began to be a little "scared". No wonder, at this time, Xiao Yao applied for the first time, and his experience was not rich, which naturally aroused his fear.
Finally looking forward to the day of the interview, he actually became a little cold: what is this interview? They are all very routine questions, even if they involve his career and his studies, they are easy to answer, so slowly he began to answer questions casually without thinking.
"What would you do if you found that your boss is not as good as you, or your colleagues are not easy to get along with?" The boss asked with a smile. "That's not to say, with the ability to answer him, and finally be his boss. If he is still so against me, I will tell the boss. If the boss doesn't care, then leave. Anyway, I have the ability, but I am afraid that there is no good unit? " Oh, my God, Xiao Yao actually came up with that set in college, so he answered "easy" and naturally failed.
Counter-terrorism experts suggest that in fact, some large companies, especially some foreign-funded and joint-venture companies, often focus on testing your intelligence and personality, and don't care much about the scores on paper.
Wait for the notice quietly: don't gild the lily.
Many companies want job seekers to go home and wait for the notice after the initial test, although at this time they have a general answer to what kind of people they need. At this time, if you have all the conditions and are not in a hurry to make a phone call every three days, then people will be very annoyed.
Wang Jingjing, whose personality is "unrestrained", doesn't care about this one. Interview, written test, re-examination, she didn't get the result feedback in the end (in fact, it was far from the waiting period people said), so she quickly went to the company to find out. What she did was nothing to her, but in fact she violated the original agreement with the company to "refuse to visit without notice" In addition, when she was talking to a "clerk" in the office, she was rude and careless for a while, which left a bad impression on people.
Soon the company's recruitment notice was posted at the gate. Without her, she immediately asked her acquaintances in that company. As soon as she knew it, she regretted it very much. Originally, she was on the initial admission list, but she was deleted from the list that day because she came to inquire about the company privately and spoke rudely to the boss of the company. God, it turns out that the "clerk" is the boss of the company.
Counter-terrorism experts suggest that waiting is the easiest thing to say, but some job seekers who could have been hired often have the idea of getting news as soon as possible because of impatience, and often harass the company's personnel department, often losing some excellent employment opportunities out of thin air.
After the recruitment time? Opportunities still exist.
For Zhao He, who has excellent academic performance, finding a job is definitely not a problem. The problem is that he needs too many units. Because many companies have recruitment deadlines, when he saw the recruitment advertisement of a big local company in the evening paper a month ago, he felt that he really wanted to lose an excellent opportunity this time, because that company was exactly what he wanted to go to.
At first, he felt disappointed and afraid. What he is afraid of is that he will never enter his ideal company again. But a few days later, based on his confidence in his Excellence, he called the personnel department of that company, but the result was still not good. In order not to regret in the future, he simply came to the office of the general manager of the company. Unexpectedly, he got an unexpected surprise this time. There was a position in the company at that time, and the original employee resigned and went abroad. After talking with Xiao Zhao, the general manager found that he already had the relevant key talents, and expressed his appreciation for his real talent. A year later, Xiao Zhaorong was promoted to senior supervisor because he was competent for the job he applied for.
Counter-terrorism experts suggest that what Xiao Zhao often tells others is the best weapon for job hunting and counter-terrorism: "The conditions are flexible, you can't give up your efforts. Are you scared? Fear is unnecessary. " Yes, try to overcome your fears, and you won't have any regrets about your youth.

Is it difficult to find a job? Solve eight puzzles in job hunting
What should I do without work experience?
Hong Zhen: The employment of fresh graduates will reach its peak; After the Spring Festival, job-hopping will be more prominent. Through this conversation, I hope I can give you some inspiration in finding a job.
Yun Feng: 6 1 Job hunting failed, which may be behind the confusion that everyone generally faces.
Xiong Wei: As long as these problems are solved, it is easy to find a satisfactory job.
Yun Feng: For fresh graduates, "no work experience" is the biggest obstacle.
Hongzhen: At the job fair, fresh graduates need work experience, so they turn around and leave without looking at the recruitment brochure.
Yun Feng: I've been looking for friends who are engaged in marketing, management and secretarial work, and seeking indirect experience from them. Actually, it's just to cross the barrier of "experience".
Xiong Wei: "Work experience" is not terrible. The key is to understand what this experience means. What employers value is not the experience itself, but the working ability accumulated by experience. Therefore, fresh graduates can show their potential through part-time job or internship experience in school, and pass on the information that you already have or will have that ability to each other.
People who change jobs after one year will hardly have successful work experience, at least not effective work experience. In the first year of work, the first three months are the study and trial stage, the last three months are to adapt to the enterprise, and the last six months are to understand the whole industry. Just turned into a business person a year later. Therefore, it is generally only after two years of work that you can barely count as having work experience.
What am I suitable for?
Yun Feng: This is my first time to apply for a job, and I'm confused. Sending resumes everywhere, I don't know what job to look for.
Xiong Wei: This is a manifestation of inaccurate career positioning. It is very important to realize what you want to do and what you can do when you first enter the workplace.
Hong Zhen: So, how do you position yourself?
Xiong Wei: First of all, we must be clear about our advantages. Workplace competition wins by advantage. Then choose a career according to your personal interests. Some people only see the aura of a professional name, but they don't know its essential characteristics, which may be improperly positioned. In fact, when you choose a career, you choose a lifestyle: salespeople have to run around every day and face rejection all the time. An introverted and impatient person can't do it well. It must be very painful for people who like innovation and adventure to become accountants.
Yun Feng: I see! With interest, you like to do it; Have an advantage, indicating that you can do it; Coupled with the lifestyle of that profession, you can do that job well.
Can I compete with others?
Hong Zhen: At the job fair, some junior college students were scared to see that many undergraduates and graduate students were also submitting resumes.
Xiong Wei: Some undergraduates take the postgraduate entrance examination directly after graduation, while others are largely afraid and avoid competition. In fact, competition is not terrible. As long as you dare to compete and are willing to compete, you can win. Competition depends on advantages, and advantages are relative. Just like a doctoral student may be an expert in one field, but he may not be as good as a junior college student in another field. It can be said that everyone is a miracle.
Yun Feng: How can the competition win more surely?
Xiong Wei: The closer the personal advantage is to the ability required for the position, the easier it is to succeed. In addition, competition is everywhere, and candidates should take the initiative to show their competitive advantages from job application materials, interviews, personal image and so on.
What if the major is wrong?
Hong Zhen: Many people find it difficult to find a job. In fact, they want to find a good job.
Yun Feng: I can't find the right job. What should I do? Change careers, I feel that my major has been abandoned for four years. What a pity!
Xiong Wei: We don't need to limit our employment direction by major, otherwise the employment scope will be too narrow. Marketing, administration, secretarial work, etc. People from all majors can take the exam, except for professional posts with high technical content, which really need professional counterparts to do. For example, a gold medal maintenance engineer at HP studied sports; Siemens has a technical support worker who studies accounting; I have a classmate who is majoring in metallurgy. Because I like programming, I was hired as a programmer by a company when I graduated.
Hong Zhen: What do you think of your major?
Xiong Wei: Professional learning is only the accumulation of knowledge base, knowledge system and learning ability. Whether you can engage in related professional posts after graduation involves the career orientation mentioned above.
Guest profile: Xiong Wei, chief knowledge officer of Wuhan Blue Point Technology Company, has given many career guidance lectures in Wuhan University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology and other universities; From last year to July this year, Yun Feng, an assistant engineer of Wuhan Proview Technology Company, succeeded for the 62nd time after 1 1 failed to apply for a job.
Why is it so difficult for women to find jobs?
Yun Feng: In the job application of 6 1, I called many times to apply, but many units said "we don't want women here" as soon as they heard it was a female voice, and immediately hung up.
Hong Zhen: Many people say that this is discrimination against women, and they are indignant about it.
Xiong Wei: Men may have certain advantages in physical strength, business trip and rational thinking, so they may be more handy in marketing and management. Women, on the other hand, are thoughtful and have an advantage in finance. But most jobs can be done by men and women. Some employers may consider the nature of the post, which is dominated by men, so it is limited to recruiting only men, but female candidates can show their other advantages to convince each other.
Into a big company or a small company?
Yun Feng: "Non-famous enterprises don't go" and "non-big companies don't enter", which may be the general mentality of fresh graduates when they first look for jobs.
Hong Zhen: You may think that the management of large companies is relatively standardized and can fulfill their promises. They think that small companies are small in scale, poorly managed, and their salaries and benefits are easily discounted.
Xiong Wei: This is a kind of prejudice. Large and small companies have their own advantages and disadvantages: large companies have high salaries, stability and dignity, and various benefits are in place; However, due to the large business volume, standardized management and fine division of labor, it is often "a radish and a pit", so that your work experience will be very accurate and professional, but the scope is narrow.
Yun Feng: Are there many opportunities for promotion in big companies?
Xiong Wei: There are many opportunities, but the competition is more intense. Of course, in a big company, you can "play tricks" with experts every day, and your professional ability will improve quickly.
Hong Zhen: On the contrary, in a small company, "the sparrow is small and has everything", and often one person has several jobs.
Xiong Wei: It covers a wider range at work and can exercise various abilities. After working for a few years, you may become a compound talent. Therefore, it doesn't matter whether you go to a big company or a small company. The key is to understand the company background first, and then combine the career goals to see if it can bring more opportunities for future development.
More research is useless.
Yun Feng: Before applying for the job, I obtained the qualification certificate of intermediate secretary, just to increase my bargaining chip.
Hong Zhen: This is the common practice of textual researchers now. Look at the research advertisements flying all over the sky, and you can see it. Many people are asking: Is it useful to get one more certificate?
Xiong Wei: With a certificate, you can only prove that you have passed the exam. What employers value is the gold content of the certificate. Two recent graduates with CET-6 certificates went for an interview. It is difficult for one person to communicate in English, and it is difficult for another person to introduce himself in English. As a result, the first one passed smoothly, and the last one was naturally eliminated. It is foolish for someone to ask a "gunman" to take the exam in order to get a certificate, because he can't escape the interview sooner or later.
Xiong Wei: Besides, the more certificates, the higher the interviewer's expectations. If you let him down a little, the chances will be less.
Looking for a job is too tired, what should I do?
Hong Zhen: Yun Feng, 6 1 applied for a job. Did you feel tired at that time?
Yun Feng: When I hit a wall again and again, I think about the expectations of my family, friends and classmates, and the invisible pressure becomes a psychological burden.
Hong Zhen: A bad attitude will directly affect the job search!
Yun Feng: I really didn't want to find a job at that time, so I stayed at home for a week to adjust my mind. Listen to music, take a walk, practice typing in front of the computer for half an hour every day, and read professional books. In particular, a book "Mind decides everything" opened my eyes. Later, I simulated various interview opportunities and came up with many application skills. Finally, I said to myself: I will definitely find my ideal job.
Xiong Wei: Yun Feng's practice is very good. When he is in a bad mood, as long as he adjusts in time, sums up experience and lessons, does not lose confidence, and maintains a good attitude to apply, he will succeed.
Guest profile: Xiong Wei, chief knowledge officer of Wuhan Blue Point Technology Company, has given many career guidance lectures in Wuhan University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology and other universities; From last year to July this year, Yun Feng, an assistant engineer of Wuhan Proview Technology Company, succeeded for the 62nd time after 1 1 failed to apply for a job.

Small remedies for job hunting: how to deal with regular interviews skillfully
Foreign companies have formed a complete and strict system in recruiting employees, and of course there are mature interview procedures, while domestic employers do not have a standardized model and generally do not ask too difficult and tricky questions.
△ Introduce yourself briefly.
The first question encountered in an interview is generally: Please introduce yourself. In fact, this question is not practical.
Meaning: From your resume, the examiner has a basic understanding of you. He just wants to start a topic, you just need to answer it in concise and clear language. Too long is boring.
△ Answer of the other party's position
Some questions, the examiner does not need a clear answer, just judge your principles and ability to deal with the problem. Almost all interviews in state organs will ask: When your opinion conflicts with the leader and the leader's opinion is incorrect, how do you handle it? The appropriate answer is: I will follow the leader's advice, but I will tell him at the right time and in the right way, and give sufficient reasons to prove myself right. In fact, many companies don't want their subordinates to contradict their superiors.
△ Listen to the voice behind the text
It is important to learn to analyze the meaning behind the examiner's words.
For example, an interview with the Political Department of the Air Force asked: What kind of books do you like to read? Some say it's Jin Yong, some say it's religion, and some say it's Lu Yao. Finally, the examiner said: It seems that you are very sensitive and weak in reason. Please express your views on recent international and domestic events and pay attention to rational analysis. It turns out that units like the army don't need too sensitive people.
