I am a female master's degree in an unpopular major on Double 211, but I can't find a job.

The two-month autumn recruitment is in full swing. The autumn recruitment of the University of Technology ended a little early, but I am still a grass that no one cares about, and I am still looking for a towering teacher that I can rely on. Tree.

On the day I received the text message, I just got off the train. Although I was in a sleeper class, the 20-hour trip was not that easy. Then I found a hotel closer to the examination room and settled down.

Being alone in a foreign country, it is inevitable to feel lonely. Besides, I didn’t review well for this exam, and I only did well in reviewing two of the four subjects. I walked for a long time alone before I found the examination room, and then walked for a long time before I found a noodle shop. I ate the weird egg fried noodles mixed with water, and I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. I never fight a battle that I am not sure about, but this time , but I came to the exam with the mentality of losing.

After eating and taking a shower, I received the text message that the interview was on the 17th, and that day was the 15th.

Why did it happen to be on the 17th? The exam on the 17th happened to be the two subjects that I reviewed better. I originally wanted to pass two subjects this year and two more subjects next year. Everything happened so suddenly, and this interview was the straw that broke the camel's back.

I ran away. I gave up the exam and officially started my autumn recruitment journey.

There are four rounds of interviews in this company. And that afternoon I needed to do two rounds.

The first round is the group interview. There are 12 people around a table.

Let’s take turns to introduce ourselves for 30 seconds. Most people couldn’t finish what they said. I just said a few words and didn’t know what to say. After all, this is my first interview, or It took 20 hours of train ride to get here.

Afterwards, the interviewer was very considerate and asked how many of us were attending the interview for the first time. Many people raised their hands, so he asked everyone to relax and asked each of us what our favorite games were. , or have any hobbies. In fact, this is also a routine. Most people say that Honor of Kings does not have a certain design game that they want.

The next step is grouping. 12 people are divided into 3 groups to discuss a topic together. There is a time limit, and finally one person is asked to stand up and summarize.

The question is probably this. As a project manager, what should you do if there is a small team in your team that shirks responsibilities and affects the progress of the project.

In fact, during the discussion, I am the kind of person who can hardly say more than two sentences. Definitely not the leader of the team, at most a participant.

After each group has reported, each group will select two people who made the greatest contribution to the discussion and explain why they made the greatest contribution. Then someone said, ladies first, but they all chose me and the one who summarized.

I passed the group interview inexplicably. Of course, the other candidate who was selected failed the interview, so I don’t know what the contribution ranking is.

Next is the two-sided, one-to-one one-sided.

Let’s introduce ourselves.

Then, he would ask questions about the project I introduced. For example, they asked me about my role in the project, how to deal with bottlenecks, and my specific work content, etc. I thought I answered well, but it all ended in vain.

That’s right, I failed both sides. I still sent a text message to ask, because my classmate passed and notified him to attend the three interviews, but I did not receive any message. My real email notification was more than a month later.

Bad news keeps coming, small papers are rejected.

An engineering journal said that we are slow in reviewing manuscripts, so you should submit it to a mechanical journal.

Mechanical News said that the innovation is not obvious. I didn't expect that he was an EI, and he refused with personality.

Then, I had no choice but to apply for the school newspaper as a guarantee. As a result, a few weeks later, I received a phone call telling me that there was no such column that could publish this topic. There are enough reasons for rejection.

Really hurt.

Had no choice but to find another home again.

Actually, I didn’t go to the design institute’s seminar because I didn’t see anyone majoring in water conservancy. But when my roommate described it with an angry look on his face, I felt that I was right not to go.

She said, the speech didn’t last long, and then she began to submit resumes for interviews.

"We only need master's degree students who are on Double 211 and above, and others can leave." A group of people left.

"No girls." Another group left.

"Only structural engineering majors." There are not many people left.

"Okay, let's start the interview."

Screening is so cruel.

Later, when I saw that my classmates were all applying for real estate, I also started to listen to the real estate lectures. After the lectures, I submitted my resume and then went directly to the interview. I tentatively asked the person who accepted the resume for the engineering position. , do you want a job in water conservancy? Then the person who received the resume didn’t even raise his head and said, “Your major is not suitable for you. Check out other positions to see if they are needed.” In fact, I have already looked at it, and this position is the most suitable. They are all management positions, and there is no counterpart.

After that, I didn’t apply for jobs that didn’t include water conservancy.

I am even more daunted by real estate.

I began to look for the official websites of major water conservancy-related design institutes, collected them, and then applied for them as long as they were recruiting.

Irrigation Institute, Survey Institute, Municipal Administration Institute, Traffic Regulation Institute, Water Resources Planning Institute, Urban Construction Institute... none of them were spared. I applied to them by email and official website, and even called to inquire.

However, there was no more after that.

I was unwilling to submit. I was the first one to apply to a design institute in Shanghai because I had been following their official website for a long time. When I saw the recruitment information that day, I submitted my resume almost immediately. . But there has been no news. I followed the news on the official website and the employment information websites of major water conservancy universities. Finally on that day, I found out that this design institute was going to a university in Nanjing. I was so excited that I quickly bought a train for the day. ticket.

The result is very disappointing.

Dear fellow students, remember that it is very important to choose the right research direction. You must look for some papers of your supervisor in advance to understand clearly whether the topic he studies is suitable for finding a job or studying for a PhD. This is really important!

There is also a Shanghai company that manages water. The teacher said that opportunities are earned by oneself. I even found the company headquarters in Shanghai, just to give people a resume, because after online investment, there are basically no Any news will really take the flowers to wither. However, even if I go, even if I spend hundreds of dollars in travel expenses and hundreds of dollars in accommodation fees to go to Shanghai, if I don’t speak professionally, I won’t speak well.

Hydrology and agricultural water are different.

Only hydrology, not agricultural water.

Moreover, this company does not dare to recruit graduate students. He just wants to find a job. I heard that they are going to recruit at a certain vocational and technical school in our province, and they will not come to my legendary 211 university. .

Until one day, I received an email from a consulting company in Shanghai, saying that after reading my resume, I felt that I was very suitable for the position of assistant consultant in their organization. In my impression, I seemed I didn't submit my resume to this consulting company, so I searched for this company everywhere and found that he was a member of Zhaopin Recruitment. It was probably the system that pushed my message to him.

I stared at the words "You are very suitable for our company's assistant consultant" and got excited for a long time. Since his company thought that I was very suitable, it must be right, so I called When I asked if I needed an interview, I was told that there was a written test, but I had to go to the company to take the written test.

I went to Shanghai happily again.

Before going, I searched a lot of information about this position and printed it out and memorized it for a long time. I thought I was about to end my job search journey.

When I arrived in Shanghai, I got off the train and immediately went to catch the subway. I made several stops, then I found a small yellow car and started riding after getting out of the subway. In the end, I was unfortunately a few minutes late. The HR lady asked me to make a set of papers. Except for the practical test part, I have finished all of them. The professional knowledge items are all related to management. I can't understand any of the questions and they are all blank. It seems that the major is not right.

Then, the young lady chatted with me for a few words, then asked me to leave, saying that I would be notified of the re-examination within a week. Now, a week has passed and there is still no news. It is probably GG.

And my original hope turned into disappointment little by little.

After repeated blows, I finally realized the seriousness of mismatched majors, and I started sending out resumes.

Finally, a provincial water affairs company came to give a presentation. The presentation was really deserted. There were only a few dozen people, and the seats were all full. I thought this was a great opportunity. Almost everyone who came to submit their resumes was notified of interviews. I wanted to go to the Urban Construction Institute and asked me about my career plan. I also went there for senior engineers, but the Urban Construction Institute only wanted civil engineering, while this water unit was engaged in urban groundwater, mainly water supply and drainage, both of which were water. The difference Why is it so big?

However, I also have a problem. I did not understand the specific situation of each branch of this unit in advance. During the interview, I was asked which branch I felt I was most suitable for, but I couldn't say a word. Finally, you have to submit your undergraduate and graduate transcripts, and it will be the same after that. Go back and wait for news.

Then there was no news.

The University of Technology came to recruit a group, and I went there in vain. The salary was not high, but at this moment, I just wanted a job.

I even started applying to construction companies. Although I knew when I graduated from college that construction companies did not want girls, I still wanted to give it a try.

After you vote, it’s natural to sit down and chat. The interviewer asked me if I had any requirements. I weakly said that I had no requirements, as long as I was given a job. The interviewer was shocked, why did he lower the requirement so low? I replied, because I had received too many blows.

Later, the interviewer saw that I was pitiful and there were not many people here, so he started chatting with me and said that my resume was not very impressive and that I could find an internship first and wait until I gain more experience. , add some content to your resume, and you can start looking for a job again.

To be honest, I had a lot of feelings during this chat. After I returned home, I started to rethink and rewrite my resume. I revised several versions of my resume over and over again.

Although a lot of resumes were submitted for this group recruitment, some were engaged in cost and construction work, and most of them were construction companies. After that, they were waiting for news, but until now, there has been no follow-up. .

Later I thought, since I want someone with a professional background, and I am a farmer and water conservancy major, am I more inclined towards agriculture rather than water conservancy? So, I started investing in agriculture-related fields.

I was very excited to see that one of Yuan Longping’s hospitals was recruiting.

But still to no avail. What they want is agriculture, pure agriculture! And I am agricultural water conservancy!

A certain farm school called and said it wanted me to do an internship. But I'm busy graduating now and don't have time to do an internship. I haven't had any news since.

I am getting more and more confused when looking for a job. I have always wanted to find a professional counterpart, but there seems to be no professional counterpart. Except for Shuiguiyuan and Zhongshui, no one wants girls.

There are also some that are not restricted to majors. They say they are not restricted to majors, but in fact they are also restricted.

A branch of a certain hospital in Shenzhen also came to ask for agricultural water. Naturally, I was very happy. Several questions were raised during the briefing. My enthusiasm, which had been suppressed for a long time, was ignited again.

After the lecture, I had a private chat with the speaker for a long time, and finally came to a conclusion: Boys, if you want to come, you can come. The more the merrier, girls, I’m sorry.

I won’t give up and won’t leave. Finally, he agreed to give me an internship opportunity.

Later, the recruitment group of a certain provincial hospital also paid attention to it for a long time. As a result, there was no chance to participate in the evaluation.

I was not willing to go to the Yellow River, so I had a private chat with the HR lady. She said that those who did not receive the assessment notification were all because they failed to pass the resume screening. So, was I screened out because my major did not match my qualifications, or because I was not 985? , or is it because I'm not a boy? Who knows?

A certain hospital in the northwest also came. There are always blows, especially this year.

Before the presentation, HR kept walking around and asked everyone about their majors. Only the girls row did not ask. Later, they conducted a simple one-on-one interview. The girls were interviewed for one minute each and the boys were interviewed for ten minutes, so , what else can I say?

In a certain bureau in Shanghai, it was said that anyone who went to the briefing session could sign directly. After I heard this, I rushed over excitedly and found that there was no girl. My classmate said, "Why are you here? It's not like you are here." Those who are looking for girls, all the girls are gone.

Later I started overseas investment. I started to apply for sales, teachers, and management trainees regardless of major. I knew I couldn't deal with people. During the interview, I discovered that I had a lot of problems. What impressed me most was what the interviewer said, " You said that your advantage is that you have strong self-learning ability, but your disadvantage is that you are not very confident. This is contradictory in itself. If you have strong learning ability, why are you not confident? It seems that you are full of passion and ambition, but you are submissive in doing things. ..."

I was shocked, she almost saw through me completely.

There was no result after these interviews. I probably have a real flaw in my character, which means I am suitable for technical work but not for interpersonal work.

I even invested a lot in graphic design and art, but my hand-drawn three-legged cat skills were actually not on the table at all.

In fact, it’s not completely out of the question.

A small branch of a design institute in Henan notified me to go for an interview. I was so happy.

But the address was in a certain community, which made people suspicious, so I asked my boyfriend to accompany me, and after wandering around, I finally found the place. The lights in the elevator were all broken. When I got in, it was not what I thought before. It's like a pyramid scheme, but there are only two small offices, one is for the chief engineer. There were only about ten people in the other room, and they were drawing pictures. The chief engineer was very enthusiastic about us, saying that there were many small projects and there was a shortage of people. But when the work came, I was afraid. I was afraid for the rest of my life. They all stayed in this small building isolated from the world, drawing pictures every day, until they no longer knew what dreams were. We fled in panic.

In fact, I have always regarded him as a guarantee.

There is also a small branch in Shanghai. The salary is probably not good and the platform is small, but there is a severe shortage of people. It seems that I can join the job immediately if I want to go. I plan to visit that small branch in a few days. It might as well be a safe choice.

There is also a real estate company waiting for the final notice. If there is no notice, I guess it’s time to say goodbye.

The above is my experience of stopping painting in the past two months and focusing on finding a job. I have submitted more than a hundred resumes, but so far I have not received an offer. It is so miserable.

I have talked so much and the article is written without any logic. I don’t know if you can understand it.

The following are some lessons I learned:

Lesson 1: When looking for a job, you must find someone with a professional background, otherwise the success rate will be very low.

Lesson 2: Be sure to understand the background of the company before going for an interview. Let HR feel that you have great ideas and really want to go.

Lesson 3: Don’t position yourself too high, but you should rather be lacking than overdoing it.

Lesson 4: The key points in the resume must be highlighted, and the resume cannot be too fancy.

Lesson 5: Opportunities are earned by yourself. If you can go to the lecture, try your best to do so. It would be better if you can go to the company.

Lesson 6: Be sure to read the interview in advance. Draft your interview questions in advance.

Lesson 7: Do more practice tests and you won’t go wrong. Many units take a practical test in the written examination.

Lesson 8: The professional foundation must be solid. It will be asked in the interview and also in the written test.

Lesson 9: Become an adult before becoming a talent.

Things in character are very important.

Lesson 10: To be continued...

Finally, I hope everyone can find a satisfactory job.

------Come from a female master’s degree in an unpopular major who graduated from Double 211 but has difficulty finding a job

Updated on 11.13

I plan to update again today.

As written at the end of the article, that real estate company, after listening to the seminar and gathering 110 likes in the circle of friends at the seminar, then a round of written examination, a group interview, a one-on-one interview, and then After the last two video interviews, I was finally successfully dismissed and burst into tears... (The HR girl before also said that my professional match was good. I thought that there would be no problem in the final round of interviews, but I was told that my professional and The position was not suitable... I couldn't hold it back for a while, and cried for a few hours, and then it was time to eat and drink)

And the small company in Shanghai also went there in person.

The location is super remote, as shown in the picture (can you believe this is Shanghai). At first I saw the panoramic view on Baidu Maps, but I didn’t dare to go by myself. I asked my boyfriend to accompany me. The round trip cost nearly a thousand yuan. There are only six offices in the company, four of which have closed doors, and one office is for the leadership. Yes, there is also a design studio. I chatted with the boss, almost all year round. With such conditions, he also said that he didn’t really want girls... I was tired.

Later, I participated in a seminar and interview for a foreign company. The position was management trainee and the job content was sales assistant.

After 5 rounds of interviews, I didn’t expect to lose in English.

Since I scored 500 in the CET-6 test when I was a senior, and then during my postgraduate studies, I never read English again except in class, so my level dropped sharply. During the interview, I was speechless... and then There is no more.

Today I attended another presentation about water conservancy. It said water conservancy and hydropower were needed. However, after listening to the presentation and handing in my resume, HR took one look at it and put it aside. After that, I read the names of seven or eight people and said they would stay for interviews and the others could leave with their resumes. I don’t even know how I died.

The resume is really just a glance.

There is still no offer, waiting for the double selection meeting next weekend.

Keep waiting, keep looking...

Where is my future?
