I have been a headhunter for a while, so I have a general understanding of Internet companies. I also know that it is not easy to find a job with the recent layoffs.

The following interview according to their own ten days of time, simple about some feelings. I hope it can be helpful to you. There are small factories for interview, mainly product operation, which has certain versatility and can be referred to.


1. Education background:

Of course, the higher the educational background, the better. The educational background of 985,211, overseas returnees and so on occupy an obvious advantage in the competition, and they will be more selective in future promotion and career choice. For example, people with the same work experience can work in BAT or some good companies affiliated to 985,211 for two or three years, but it is much more difficult for students who are not 985,211. I have friends like this. So it’s important to read whenever you can.

I have heard of an example that a large state-owned enterprise wants to promote a junior college student, and the approval of HR has to be handed to the vice president all the way. Just imagine how many people are willing to do such a thing? Became no good, in case the leadership is not happy was criticized.

2. About age:

In similarly demanding positions, the younger the age, the greater the advantage. If you’re looking for a specific number of years of experience, age may be the limit, because HR will look at your experience and determine if you’re qualified for the position.

Older people will do more harm. For example, dachang and unicorn companies have higher and higher requirements on people. People around 30 years old are the most popular, but people over 35 years old will be considered for a long time.

I have heard that a big factory judge whether a person is excellent standard, P7 before 30 years old, P8 before 35 years old, such a person is very potential, the rest is not sure.

You may say that there will be curves overtaking people, there will be, but work for a long time, such a probability is very small, because most people will become what, in fact, still can have some vague judgment.

Don’t worry about getting older. The important thing is that your experience matches your abilities. That’s the key.

3. Background:

Big factory look at the background, this is a known thing. But think about it another way. If a company is spending money on hiring, there’s nothing wrong with hiring the best people at the same price. After all, HR doesn’t want to spend too much time on impossible people, and business departments also want to have a strong person to help business development. Workplace as battlefield, no one wants to take the blame, which is understandable.

4. What kind of people have the chance to enter Dachang?

I think there are several ways to look at it:

Education background + target background (large or small factories can do related business) + ability of corresponding major + industry influence

Educational background is very important but not must, a lot of people work for many years, but because it is an expert in a certain field, or can enter big factory, just say inside ability limits, educational background can be good as far as possible good.

People with their own skills, like running products and understanding data. Technical knowledge of business and algorithms.


5. How should we prepare?

Choices matter. When you choose a job, you should also think about what it will bring you and where you want to go.

When choosing a job, look carefully to see if you have the corresponding ability, targeted to prepare.

For example, some positions require data ability, more to see the corresponding data ability.

You must have a goal, you may not be able to enter a big factory, but you can find a relatively good company post, this post should be a strong person to guide you, the team learning atmosphere is also very important.

6. How should your resume be written?

To learn to read JD, if there is an acquaintance in the corresponding company, it is best to know the specific situation of the position.

Specific to write, you have what advantage is suitable for this post, what you have done is related to this post to do, what resources you have, can be written up.

Don’t take this as flattery. We believe that people who are prepared for a position are more likely to impress than those who are unprepared.


7. What should we do for personal growth?

1) Think more, do more, summarize more, and output more.

As you finish each task, summarize how it was done, what strengths you need to maintain and what weaknesses you need to improve, and document them accordingly. This way you won’t feel overwhelmed the next time you encounter something like this, and you’ll have something to say during the interview.

2) If you can write, do it, even if it’s bad.

Writing articles, going out and giving speeches, that’s a big part of personal impact. Don’t stop writing because you think you’re not good at writing. A lot of big guys are good at writing when they start, but so what? If you’re willing to do it, you’re ahead of most people.

Just to give a few more examples, writing articles or going out to speak can be a great personal help.

There are so many big shots in my circle of friends that I can make a pretty good living just by writing articles. You might say that was the dotcom dividend, not so good now.

Last week I listened to a speech, 96 years of a classmate, write a public number for 1 year, the cost of living can be flat, so also quite good. The important thing is to put your heart into it and keep doing it, and with a little operation, someone will see.

Another friend had been making speeches before, but later asked for influence in the industry when he was promoted. It was a natural thing to pass.

Let the world know about you and good jobs will come to you.

3) Keep learning new things

One reason why older people are easily eliminated is that they have less energy to learn the latest things. In the Internet era, knowledge is updated quickly, and failing to keep up with The Times means it is easy to be eliminated. Oracle layoffs so many people will cry, probably this is the reason, boiled frog is not competitive.

As I have talked recently, many positions have higher and higher requirements on data, such as product and operation. Students in this field can pay attention to it. Even the position of operation of a company I interviewed has requirements on language, so study hard

4) Don’t be afraid to get to know someone, because relationships are trouble

Sometimes you go to an event and you feel like the person on stage is so cool that you don’t deserve him.

In fact it doesn’t matter, brave to want to contact means, have a problem to ask more, a return to life two time ripe, of course you ask the person of the time basic courtesy also want, send a red envelope please coffee and so on, don’t go to do hand party.

My boss once said to me: Only by hanging out with the top 5% can you become the top 20%. I think it makes sense, and I give it to you here.

5) Logic is important

Do a lot of things, you have to figure out why to do it, how to do it better.

6) Don’t pretend to know what you don’t

Encounter problems don’t understand the courage to speak out, everyone will be enthusiastic to help you, don’t pretend to understand, so both a waste of their time, but also a waste of everyone’s time, outweighed the loss.

8) There are many more. It’s important to think.
