Talent recruitment and interview skills

To get any position, you must pass the interview. A few minutes' interview may decide your career. What should you do when you receive an interview call from a company?

When I got the interview call,

Be sure to ask the company name, position, interview location (including bus or bus routes), time and other basic information. It's best to ask the website of the company, the name of the notifier and the position of the interviewer by the way. Here, I would like to remind everyone to try to interview at the specified time, because many enterprises are unified interviews, and if they miss the opportunity, they may miss it.

Check the relevant background of the company and the relevant situation of applying for the position online.

Company background includes industry, products, projects, development, organizational structure, corporate culture, salary level, employee stability, key events, etc. The more comprehensive and in-depth understanding, the higher the success rate of the interview, and also help to judge the enterprise (the relationship between talents and enterprises is a two-way choice).

It is very important to apply for a position, including the job title, job content and job requirements. For the same title, the requirements of each enterprise are different. The more you know, the more targeted the interview will be.

Searching among friends, relatives and people (including headhunters) to find out whether they are familiar with and understand this enterprise, their feelings or understanding are undoubtedly of great reference value. If you have an acquaintance relationship (directly or indirectly), you can say at least one or two words under the same conditions. "It is easy to do things with acquaintances" is definitely a universal truth.

What I want to explain here is that when you go to the job fair or submit your resume online, you'd better keep a record, including the company and position you applied for, which resume you submitted, which companies briefly interviewed at the job fair, who the interviewer was, what the interview content was, and how many treatment requirements you mentioned. After receiving the interview notice, check it immediately.

If you are applying for an executive position, you'd better know about the boss's relevant background and personality style (generally speaking, the boss is definitely the last step in interviewing executives). When interviewing candidates for headhunting positions, many candidates will ask the boss about his age, gender, place of origin, style and even growth background.

Learn some practical interview skills. The key is how to introduce yourself in 20 minutes, how to show your strengths and strengths as much as possible, and give the interviewer a reason to choose you. Prepare some common interview questions. It's best to do a mock interview drill, find one of your relatives and friends who is a manager or hr in the enterprise to make an on-site evaluation and make suggestions so as to find problems and adjust them in time.

In addition to the general requirements of specialty, experience and dedication, different types of work have different emphasis requirements. For example, marketing positions focus on communication skills, customer development and alertness; Accounting pays attention to rigor and principle; Technology research and development pays attention to logic and professionalism; Planning and creative positions focus on planning power and divergent thinking; Engineering pays attention to execution and practicality; Human resources focus on affinity, communication and driving force; Administrative service focuses on service, enthusiasm and meticulous; Middle and senior management positions focus on understanding, influence, coordination and integration.

Every enterprise has different corporate culture and soft tendency towards talents, some emphasize communication and coordination, some emphasize execution, and some emphasize teamwork or professional awareness. Although everyone's style has been basically stereotyped, it may be appropriate to have a targeted performance during the interview. When receiving each headhunter list, the author should not only fully understand its corporate background, job responsibilities and job requirements, but also understand its corporate culture (including explicit and implicit, written and unwritten), the boss's style and growth background, the soft requirements for talents and the business and management model of the enterprise.

Prepare a suitable professional formal suit (some it and creative enterprises or positions may be slack), straighten your hair, polish your shoes, spray some faint perfume, prepare scented chewing gum, and look in the mirror before you leave.

Estimate the travel time, be sure to leave enough time, never arrive late or early, and it is best to enter the venue 5- 10 minutes in advance. If you can't arrive on time due to traffic jams, you should also call to explain the situation and ask for understanding.

If you think it is not suitable or worthwhile to go for an interview after considering various factors, you can also refuse, but you must inform the enterprise that this is the basic requirement of professional quality.
