Upon inquiry, it turned out that Cai Xiao wrote 24 typos in her 400-word resume, which became an important reason for the company's personnel director to send her away. Yesterday, recalling this incident, Cai Xiao was very annoyed.
Write 24 typos on a 400-word resume.
"I don't even know how I can write so many typos myself." Cai Xiao, who graduated from the second university in the main city of Chongqing, is a little worried these days.
She told reporters that last Friday, she went to a decoration company in Xincheng District for an interview and applied for an office clerk. She has entered the second interview stage and will be hired by the company as long as she passes the customs. "The monthly salary is 2,500 yuan, plus commission." For this opportunity, Cai Xiao vowed to seize it.
The main content of the second interview that day was to interview the manager. During the conversation, Cai Xiao answered all the questions properly and won the manager's favor. After the conversation, the personnel department staff took out a resume for her to fill out. The last part is about self-introduction, which needs about 400 words. After Cai Xiao filled it out as required, he went home and waited for news.
Last Saturday, Cai Xiao received a phone call from the company saying that she had not been hired. Upon inquiry, it turned out that she had written 24 typos in her 400-word self-introduction, and the manager thought her handwriting was not good. The other party said that although the company generally uses computers to do homework, it still pays more attention to writing, so she was not admitted.
"This is my first job interview after more than half a year. I finally got into the second interview, but I lost my job opportunity because of my own mistakes. " Recalling what happened a few days ago, Cai Xiao was very sad yesterday.
Examination is the only chance to write.
Yesterday morning, the reporter found in the major bookstores in the city that most of the novels and comics were crowded, but few people were interested in the copybook area.
The reporter stood there for half an hour, and only 1 person bought the copybook. "I'm here to buy copybooks for my children." In the bookstore selling copybooks opposite Hao Ming Square, Mr. Wang told reporters that there are indeed many people who don't pay attention to the beauty of writing. Because my father likes practicing calligraphy, both he and his son like practicing calligraphy. He bought a workbook for his son.
"I use the computer now, and I seldom write except doing my homework." Xia, a junior high school student in Yongchuan Middle School, told reporters that she had never bought a copybook alone and practiced pen writing, let alone a writing brush. Qi, who lives in Yongchuan and is a sophomore in the main city, told reporters that when he first arrived at the university, he rarely wrote. Class notes can be recorded on a laptop or copied directly on a USB flash drive. The exam is almost his only chance to write. "I also know that my handwriting is terrible." Ning He also said that he never wrote letters by hand except when he was in primary school, and writing has been replaced by short messages and emails.
Expert: practicing calligraphy to enhance aesthetic cognition
Psychologist Zhou Anqiang said that computers and mobile phones do bring a lot of convenience to our lives, but long-term dependence on computers and mobile phones for communication also makes our writing a weak link. Practicing calligraphy in the computer age can avoid embarrassment. The process of cultivating children to learn and practice calligraphy from an early age is a process of self-cultivation, which can cultivate a person's character, enhance a person's aesthetic cognition and intrinsic value, and is also a cultural heritage with thousands of years of history.
