As the job market picks up, 10 interview hidden skills quickly pass the interview
As the saying goes, gold nine silver ten. Now is the prime time of recruitment, I believe you have also received a lot of interview invitations. After a wave of layoffs and hiring freezes at the start of the year, U.S. companies are hiring on a massive scale as the autumn heats up.
However, compared with previous years, the impact of the outbreak is still not to be ignored, coupled with a large number of experienced engineers after layoffs to return to the market, which led to the situation of monks more porridge less.In order to win the best, the major companies interview difficulty and requirements are also rising ship high.
For example, companies such as Google and Microsoft simply include new Grad job descriptions.Make it clear that you want candidates to have abilities and programs that go beyond the classroom, or even internships.
Facing the new job-hunting environment under the influence of the epidemic, many students were overwhelmed and flooded. For example, many students say:
Be caught off guard by the interviewer's questioning;
Seconds to answer the question interviewer is not satisfied;
It's not good to pinch Behavior Question;
……
The so-called "confidante knows each other to win", today and vine education together to see in those drill questions behind, the interviewer really want the answer is what? How should students understand the interview and prepare for the interview?
01
I've read my resume, do you mean to read it again when you introduce yourself?! Interviewers often listen to each other's self-introduction, psychological will have such OS.
Every interview, hear the self-introduction to read the resume, the interviewer basically began to get eddy. HR gave the resume in advance and told the first round of ta interviews. So, the interviewer has heard of your experience at least twice, don't let him listen to it a third time, okay?!
So what should I say about self-introduction? Cranberry gives you a trick!
✔'t interested
Research shows that first impressions actually form within 30 seconds,So the first thing you say needs to be attractive.
For example:
This morning, I saw an advertisement for your competitor Company B in the subway station near the school, which is the densest area for programmers in Beijing. The ad should be new, (pause) to hear passengers discussing the ad message, and their reaction was very positive.
Before you formally introduce yourself, you can say one or two words easily.Say your valuable ideas about what you've done to the company before in an easy way. Let the interviewer notice your difference.
✔ put forward a selling point
As you prepare your resume, you'll need to make a selling point match.
Then in an interview, you need to say your selling point.It's better to have 1-2, don't exceed 3,One is that the time is too long, the other is to say too much, the interviewer simply can't remember.
✔ give evidence
What examples or data do you have to illustrate your selling point?
For example:
I have the will to learn and learning ability, in order to learn quickly, once did 5 projects a year, and my classmates, generally only 3-4 projects.
And I've tried to study the business model of an industry for 2 weeks (remember, you've got to be ready, and the interviewer will certainly ask you what you understand about the industry later).
This does not need to be particularly detailed, but the case needs to be carefully considered, as the interviewer will certainly ask.
Of course, there is also a caution machine, because the views and examples you are talking about here will become the subject of the interviewer's inquiry, so,Of course you can deliberately put something you're good at in order to take the initiative.

✔ summary and request
For example:
Although I do not have much relevant experience, but my ability to learn quickly so that I can get started quickly, coupled with my rich project management experience, I believe that I can quickly create value for the company. Hope to be able to enter your company as a consultant, further study the organization and design related content, for the future career development to lay the foundation.
Use the shortest space to summarize the experience and advantages you have before, the future of their own want to develop direction.While well embodying logical capabilities, clearly express the willingness and purpose of joining the company.Companies prefer ambitious, self-driving workers to employees who only want a steady wage.
02
Weaknesses can actually be reversed to advantages!
First of all, don't try to cover up the experience!Resumes and interviews must be true, which is the bottom line that most companies can't touch.
In fact, the authenticity of past resumes and the frankness of candidates are more important to interviewers. As long as there are reasonable reasons, a short experience may not be directly identified as lack of professional stability.
Conversely, if you use this experience to illustrate it, give the interviewer a chance to see your sincerity, the logic of answering questions, and, more importantly, your values, turn to security and disadvantage into an advantage.
Of course, the premise of all this is that you do have a reason to leave the company in a very short period of time. If you make a decision for fear of being tired, grumpy, and hot-tempered, this article won't help you.

03
To be able to pass a resume is to succeed!
Someone once said to me: Why is the business interview so rigid? All relevant academic background or internship experience. Nonsense! You have no experience, so what is your value? People are not schools, but they have to train you.
Even if you train, you have to find someone with potential, don't you? How can you prove your potential ah, can not let people look at each other?
Then again, since people have read your resume, has let you into the interview, there is certainly a chance, after all, resume screening is not by drawing lots.
Of course, the interview will certainly ask you motivation, such as: "You have studied this major in college for so many years, graduated why do you want to change?" "
You have to account for your journey, here must not be false, sincere, put your true thoughts out.
Of course, or that sentence, if you don't think about it yourself, or are not interested in the line at all, just looking at the high or bright income, then this article still can't save you.
04
Looking for a job doesn't start with writing a resume!For new students, enterprises are like buying futures, looking at the potential.
So, experience is not so important, you think you have been internship for a few months, can bring much value to the enterprise? Look at the relevant internship experience, nothing more than to see if you are suitable for such a job, reduce risk.
If you can prove that you have enough potential to do the job well, the internship experience is not so important. How can you prove that you have the potential to fit into another job?
The answer is to highlight commonality.For example, sales and consulting are irrelevant, right? However, many abilities are common, for example, the same requires communication skills, the same requirements of market analysis skills, and so on.
Iceberg models must all know that icebergs are above skills, knowledge and experience. But.The soft power, personality traits, motivations, values, and so on beneath the iceberg are the important aspects that determine a person's potential.
So, as long as you can convince the interviewer that your past experience proves that you are qualified for the job, you can.
Finally, even famous students have to pour cold water.
The first basin of cold water, you have never experienced and practiced the work, are you really sure you like it?
Second basin of cold water, why don't you go to practice, where are you?
05
Generally the interviewer will ask me at the end of the interview, do you have anything to ask me? And the question is more about a person's level than the answer, the question is: Do you ask a question?
There's no nonsense, only dry goods.
The problem needs to be clear, not too broad: An interviewer once asked, "What do you think of the general trend of consulting?" Well, is this the rhythm of the interviewer writing a paper?
Make sure the other person has the ability to answer: Someone once asked, "What is your company's development strategy in five years?" The interviewer also works part-time, and the company is not his. Besides, the question is not even clear to the partners.
In general, don't ask about the interview results on the spot: because there is usually more than one candidate, and finally to face the comparison.
Of course, sometimes it's time to see candidates who clearly don't meet the requirements, and when it's over soon, you'll end up giving some kind advice.
So, what can you ask?
Honest questions:With your experience, what qualities do people usually have in this position?
Good learning type:I'm really interested in this business, what do you think I can do now to learn and prepare?
Heart model:(Suppose the interviewer says the company is in a good mood, and you want to determine if that's the case.) Depending on the interviewer's style, don't ask anyone) Can you share some examples of your company's good atmosphere?
06
The details of the interview may be even more important!
Let's think about it: Why do you need a face-to-face interview? If you only look at past work experience, is the phone more efficient and time-saving for the interviewer?
SoIn addition to verifying the authenticity of the resume, the interviewer is mainly to see the overall performance of the candidate face-to-face.Including its treatment of people, image temperament, logic and resilience.
For example, sales jobs, interviewers will examine the temperament of candidates talk, such as whether there is enough affinity, waiting for people to meet people feel comfortable.
For example, if a job is under greater pressure, the interviewer may examine the candidate's ability to be stressed through a series of questions. That's what we often call stress interviews.
In factA well-experienced interviewer, through youThe temperament to talk, words and deeds(Not looks, not face values)Base.Ben will be able to judge what kind of person you are.
07
Because you won't take advantage of the interview to get real company information!
If you're just showing yourself in an interview and trying to sell yourself to an interviewer, it doesn't feel good.Interview is a two-way selection process, especially for students with competitive advantage, you can get more than one career opportunity, how to choose between trade-offs, interview is an opportunity you have to take advantage of.
Take a step back, even if you get into this company, you may find yourself in a hole because you didn't get to know the company well through an interview.
Culture, atmosphere, these seemingly nihilism, determine whether you are happy at work or not.
There are usually three ways to understand the target business:
Before the interview:Through friends around, search engines, the news media and other ways to fully understand the target enterprise, of course, including the interviewer.
Once a candidate, she learned about the interviewer's past experience from LinkedIn before the interview, and when she chatted, the interview atmosphere was relaxed.
4 steps to quickly find the interviewer's personal career profile:
1. Search for the company's name on Linkedin.com;
2. Click "View all employees";
3. Find TA;
4. View TA's career profile;
At the same time, she has studied her company's consultants, the direction of career development, to help her decide whether to come to the interview.
In the interview:You should meet your immediate boss and ta's boss, and make the most of each meeting to feel their communication style.
At the end of the interview:You can ask the interviewer directly during the question session what he thinks the company's culture is like, what the team he wants to be like, why he was attracted to the position, and so on.

Don't say that new graduates get nervous when they interview, and when faced with Dream job, most people's adrenaline levels rise rapidly. Here are a few TIPSs to hide your nervous little emotions and talk freely:
Put a tissue in your pocket.Wipe your hands quickly before shaking hands, and don't let the interviewer feel your wet, cold little hands.
Don't drink coffee before the interview.Caffeine can further irritate your nerves, and it's not digestible when you're nervous until your stomach is knotted.
Refuse ice water.If you are asked to drink water before the interview, don't ask for ice water. Because you don't slip off the glass with your hands because of the condensate outside the glass, and if you're so nervous that your hands are shaking, there's no dangling ice in the glass that makes you feel uneasy at a glance. Don't say you have a lot of experience in the interview, you've forgotten how to write the tense 2 words. Be aware that "stress interviews" are not covered.
Follow the "3 seconds" rule.When you're nervous, it's easy to speed up your speech and reduce your ability to think. Staying for 3 seconds before answering a question not only allows you to digest the question, but also makes you appear less impatient (and nervous). This rule applies especially in telephone interviews.
09
Confident people, often can give people a sense of success, answer questions concise and clear, and know how to control the people,Understand how to answer questions freely and point to the end.
Chattering is a big taboo.Just ask a simple question and you can say a lot. Although perhaps this just touched your point, a thousand words, only hate the time is too short. But the more you can't take it, the more problems you'll expose. At least a little bit, your self-control is not good, and your communication skills are not very good.It's also a respect for trial time.
If for five minutes, you don't have an opinion, you don't impress the interviewer, you're "fast-forwarded" to the next topic, you're probably out of the game. It is recommended that it be fully demonstratedYour self-confidence, clear speech, straight hit the point, don't go around the bend.

Everyone knows what to wear for the interview, and there are always one or two sets of clothes in the wardrobe that are specially prepared for the interview, or borrowed from each other.But it's more important whether you dress to meet your company's expectations than if you're wearing the right dress.
What to wear for the interview,Both to reflect the respect for the interviewer and the interview company, but also in line with the company's culture and different career needs.
Knowing that wearing a black suit to interview an engineer can make an interviewer in a Tshit tight-mouthed. In fact, look at the "Big Bang of Life" xie ear clean leisure route, it is very suitable for Internet technology companies.
Once met a girl, wearing a dark suit, brand-name bags, with scarves and earrings, very fashionable, temperament is also good. This is especially true among a group of simple graduates. If you go to an investment bank, a consultant, a lawyer, it's really powerful. But unfortunately at that time she was interviewing a 500 marketing department, so it is a bit too orthodox, personality and creativity for some industries also need to be dressed to show.
There is also a risk of over-dressing during an interview. Will make the interviewer think you care too much about form. In fact, wear low-key, well-mannered, the other person's attention is more easily focused on your talent and ability.
Girls interview makeup is also a truth, unless you go to the actor audition, otherwise those cut men, bite lip makeup, extra long false eyelashes, fantasy beauty... Just hide in silence and don't challenge the interviewer's aesthetic bottom line.
