I have been leaving my job for almost two months, and the interviews are all headhunting positions. What should I do if I don't respond?

In the past two months, a job seeker L applied to me for a job. I have a good background. After graduation, I worked as a financial investment analyst in a big international company in a second-tier city. Large companies are well trained, and L is steadily improved. 40 years old, the salary is less than 700 thousand.

The year before last, on the one hand, the company adjusted its strategy, on the other hand, my husband was transferred to a first-tier city for family needs. It is difficult to find a job in a foreign company, so I found an entrepreneurial company first. The culture is completely different from that of big foreign companies, and L is totally unsuitable. Last October, I went to naked resignation. I just went back to my hometown to rest with my children for a few months, and then I didn't seriously look for a job during the Spring Festival. I thought I should be worried about my job, but I never got any feedback. After the Spring Festival, I was in a hurry and actively looked for a job, only to find that there were few market opportunities.

I left my job for more than seven months, but I still haven't found a job. There are few suitable job opportunities online, so I can only rely on headhunters to help her. I think she is particularly anxious and wants to help her. Let the company's headhunting consultants recommend it to different customers. Several consultants in related positions asked customers, but they were unwilling to accept it.

There are several questions about the feedback from consultants and customers:

1, academic qualifications are not particularly prominent, although academic qualifications will not be reduced or increased, and there is a lack of hard certificates. Although getting married and having children will not add too much points, women of childbearing age will not add points. This item is even. 2, customized responsibilities, although the salary has risen very high, but the adaptability is doubtful.

The main job is to customize in a closed system, because the company is very big, and there are still some problems in the compatibility of the work content with other companies.

Many companies will have fixed views on customized people. Junior employees of large foreign companies will be more popular because of good training, and more advanced employees will be outstanding because they win in large-scale competition.

But the most embarrassing thing is often the middle-level employees of foreign companies, because these people are the product of systematization, serious customization, unknown cultural adaptation, high salary and unknown strategic ability. Large foreign companies are large in scale and there are many people in this group, so customers have a lot of choices and don't want to waste time interviewing people with questions.

L Bad experiences in start-up companies can verify customers' doubts.

3, the gap of seven months, it is hard to believe that this person is urgent for the workplace.

Personally, I strongly oppose naked resignation again.

Candidates are afraid of finding unreliable companies. If a boss shows that running a company depends on it and will close at any time, it is estimated that few good people are willing to work with peace of mind. On the other hand, which company is not afraid of people who have nothing to do with work?

I have no chance to work for seven months, but I want to go to a reliable good company and don't want to start a business on an unstable platform. Her idea is to find a big platform for foreign companies to do well.

But if a person doesn't work for more than seven months, it seems that he will procrastinate, especially a woman with a good family, which will make people feel that it doesn't matter whether he works or not. It is easy for enterprises to doubt her professionalism.

I talked to L. Actually, her condition is not too bad, but she lacks opportunities.

Because of her special situation, that is, for some reasons, naked resignation didn't plan before. When the employment situation was bad this year, foreign companies laid off employees, but she didn't adjust her expectations, which was extremely unfavorable to her. In fact, I am sincere and pragmatic, and I have good skills in getting along with L people. But these advantages are that you must know her, and only those who know her will know. This salary position can still be solved through quite a few internal recommendations. The only reliable opportunity is also recommended by my former boss.

However, l obviously didn't notice the accumulation of resources in this area. He never thought about taking the general certificate or joining the external circle of the closed system before, but now he has changed the city and there is no circle in Shanghai.

This kind of talents are not bad in their own conditions, but it is not uncommon to find an ideal job because of various factors. This kind of cramming is very ineffective and easy to be anxious.

It is very important for people in the workplace to plan well.

We should try our best to avoid this embarrassing situation in the workplace, but if so, we can only respond positively:

1, join a group and break the deadlock of network expansion. There is always a large group of people who have the same distress.

The best way out now is not to find a job online, nor is it the most efficient means to find a headhunter. The best way is to find someone to recommend her, so that people who know her can know her and endorse her.

In fact, like most people in the workplace, the expansion of contacts has reached a deadlock. As she said, there is no business card for going out to communicate now, and there seems to be no way out. In fact, there are still various non-workplace groups to join, and classmates are the best connections. For example, only a few months after I went to my college class, some excellent students were introduced to the ideal company, and some students found business partners.

Even if you can't have the energy to pursue further studies in formal education, if you are suffering from a small circle and want to change careers, the best way is not to mix forums, add a few WeChat friends and attend classes. Otherwise, how can MBA and EMBA become more and more expensive and there are so many people attending?

In the long run, if the first degree or school is not ideal, and you want to go higher on the road of professional managers, the sooner you solve the education problem, the better. A master's degree in a prestigious school is not only for further study, but more importantly, it will not prevent the hard conditions of your academic qualifications. Although your inner condition is very good, there are too many people competing for excellent positions in this realistic society. Under the condition of mechanized screening, education is a hard condition.

2. Create a new environment and expand your choices.

It seems difficult to change the environment. In fact, we can create a new environment through some active adjustments.

I am only willing to accept mature foreign companies, because I don't think I can work in an entrepreneurial private enterprise.

I suggest that I make some friends with different views. L In the past, the circle was actually very narrow, and all my friends worked in several foreign companies of similar size. Of course, this circle is more relaxed, but the environment has changed and we must adapt to it. To adapt to the big environment, you can choose the small environment first.

A friend of mine who immigrated to Canada told me that when he first arrived in Canada, his friends basically didn't have any serious jobs, and everyone was eating domestic real estate dividends. He felt that once he arrived in Canada, all his job opportunities would be over, so he had to work as a laborer. One of his friends got a plumber's license.

Later, because the child met his classmate's father when talking about private schools, he was an executive of a local enterprise and found that many Chinese actually did very core work in the Canadian workplace, and they did very well. My friend later found a white-collar job by studying in the Bank of Canada.

The world is very big, and most of the time what we know is just a drop in the ocean. I went to a startup and failed, so I would rather wait than try another private enterprise. This passive attitude has a greater impact than the facts.

Only when our adaptability is strengthened can we expand the range of choices. There are too many "forbidden zones" in our minds that we can't accept, and it's hard to have too many options.

3. Find a job like a headhunter.

This is actually my advice to many job seekers.

Think of job hunting as a job. Headhunters can successfully help clients find hard-to-find candidates or help talents find jobs, because finding jobs is our job: working at least eight hours a day.

If you just open the recruitment website and search it every day, or check the email to see if there is any reply. This is not an all-out job at all.

Headhunters can search all the talents they can find for a position, and it is not uncommon to screen hundreds of candidates for a position.

In order to sell a talent who is judged as excellent by us, we can sell it directly to many companies. In order to sell successfully, we will try our best to find the highest level who can make decisions, not necessarily HR, and excellent headhunters will constantly hone their skills and will never give up because of several failures and rejections.

L At present, I only check the information online and send my resume to HR every day. I can only wait passively if I don't reply. In fact, online recruitment is not a good channel for positions with an annual salary of more than 700,000. Because people with high annual salary rarely submit resumes online, many companies use online recruitment for low-end positions with less qualifications.

Excellent headhunters are certainly not easy to learn. But if you have such a positive attitude, take the initiative to attack, rather than hope for others, the probability of success will increase many times.

A person's career development will be affected by many factors, including peaks and valleys. But in any case, we should keep open, constantly expand the current border, establish our own contacts and strengthen the professional firewall.
