? I'm Xiao Shuo from Nanjing University, and my major is also very cold? History is a special history (the history of international relations). I remember someone once asked the history graduates how to find a job on the school BBS. I decided to write down my experience, which is not typical, but at least a case.

Last June, 5438+10, a national ministry came to the school to recruit people. From then on, my job search began.

Until the beginning of March this year, the dust finally settled. For four months.

To tell the truth, although I knew I should look for a job when I entered the third grade, I never paid much attention to it. Occasionally talk about what to do after graduation in the dormitory. It seems that everyone is full of confidence and disdains a lot of work. Do you do this kind of work? I would rather work alone for such a small salary.

Earlier this year, a national ministry came, and it is said that it is competing with other ministries (Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, Ministry of Foreign Affairs and other special departments) for talents. The recruitment leader didn't come to the department, so he recruited directly in the school's employment guidance center for one day. About Saturday night, a friend of mine told me the news that the people in the Ministry would go to the Ministry on Monday. On Sunday, I made a resume in a hurry? It turned out that my action was correct. When the notice was received on Monday, the rest of the class was completely unprepared. Most of them have no resumes and go to the department empty-handed. By contrast, I came prepared, so the recruiter left a deep impression on me. Later, two recruitment leaders specifically asked me to talk to their hotel.

Later, a provincial organ in Jiangsu Province and a municipal organ in Nanjing came to the school for recruitment. Because of the experience of applying for the national ministries and commissions, my resume has been revised to a perfect level, and my heart is full of confidence. Later, a provincial organ in Jiangsu informed me of an interview and sent me a form to take the exam. Unfortunately, this year's national civil service examination and Jiangsu civil service examination are on the same day. Finally, I chose a national ministry and took the national civil service examination. During this period, I attended several job fairs in Nanjing. As a graduate of this unpopular major in history department, it is a long story.

There are constantly new recruitment information on the recruitment page of the employment guidance center for school graduates. I submitted several resumes by address and attended a job fair of Guangzhou Daily Group. The recruitment procedure of Guangzhou Daily is relatively simple, that is, hand in your resume and write a half-hour (or maybe an hour) article entitled? What was the most difficult thing during your college years? Hand it in when you're finished, and wait for the notice. According to students, Nanfang Daily will conduct a primary election based on its resume and then a written test. It is said that the topic is still difficult and the amount of questions is large. The subjects are the administrative professional ability test and the civil service examination.

Later, I passed the initial test of Guangzhou Daily Group, but the interview failed. I feel that although I was defeated, it was an unexpected gain for me to pass the initial test. I once saw someone on the BBS of Peking University asking which is better, Nanfang Daily or Guangzhou Daily. Although I didn't take the examination of Nanfang Daily, according to my interview experience in Guangzhou Daily and the interview experience of Nanfang Daily told by my classmates, I still think Guangzhou Daily is better, at least the interview respects you (Guangzhou Daily is a one-on-one interview, about half an hour; Nanfang Daily is one-to-many, and a dozen people sit in a circle, so that everyone can introduce themselves. Of course, this is purely my personal opinion. After all, I didn't even get the interview qualification of Nanfang Daily.

65438+February 65438+April, I went to Shanghai? This is my first trip to Shanghai, my first job search and my first growing up. But, since then, I have traveled to Shanghai six times? It's all about finding jobs. I went to Shanghai for the first time to take the Shanghai civil service examination, and attended the job fair for graduates of Shanghai Everbright Convention on February 15. I took the bus and subway, spent ten yuan on tickets and recruitment information, and squeezed around after entering the door. In the end, I only submitted one resume, and the only resume I submitted was never heard from again.

65438+February 65438+June, I took the civil service exam in Shanghai. After finishing the administrative professional ability test in the morning, I felt a mess, and the number of questions was too large (30 more than the national civil service exam). I thought there was no hope for sure, but I persisted in finishing the application exam this afternoon. I think I did well in the exam. I rushed back to Nanjing the next day after the exam, feeling very lost, but I still comforted myself: as a mock exam of the national civil service exam, the number 65438+February 2 1 has another chance! ?

The next week, I was so busy that I hit the back of my head. After returning to school from Shanghai, I took the written examination of recruiting counselors in Nanjing Agricultural University on Monday and went to Shanghai for an interview for the second time on Thursday. Go back to Nanjing the same day and attend an interview at Nanjing Agricultural University the next day? This is the most formal first interview I have ever attended. Although there have been several interviews before, they are all simple face-to-face chats. This interview was a great exercise for me, and I think I played well. I took the national civil service exam on Saturday, and I was not sure after the exam, but I felt better than Shanghai. On the night of the exam, I went to Beijing with two other students in my class by train. A national ministry informed me that there would be an interview two days later, that is, on Monday. I have been very busy this week, and several interview notices have to be given up because of time conflicts.

When I arrived in Beijing, I happened to meet the rare heavy snow in Beijing in recent years. I stayed in a guest house of a national ministry, and took a written test of a national ministry the next morning. 13 Choose one topic for 3 hours. I chose Bushism evaluation, a very vulgar topic, and I didn't feel anything after writing it. Later I learned that I only had one? Okay？ This also decided my failure in this interview, because the interview the next day was actually in a hurry. More than 30 people interviewed in the morning, each for about 3 minutes, and the questions asked were very simple? Introduce yourself, and then ask two questions based on your resume, such as why you want to work here? Can you tell a person's level?

I knew the result that afternoon. Although I didn't feel much after the interview, I told myself that I must prepare for the worst, but after several choices, I certainly hope to pass after running so far. But the reality still hit me hard and I was eliminated! Remember when I answered my cell phone for the first time, my heart was so nervous that my heart beat faster and I heard the other person tell me gently? You are excellent, but due to limited places? Then my heart sank and my mind went blank. I went back to my place in the evening and just sat for a while, so I couldn't help crying all day. This is the first time and the last time since I found a job. Beijing turned me down so lightly.

After returning to Nanjing from Beijing, I called Nanjing Agricultural University, and the other party told me that I was not on the admission list. A few days ago, I also called several other news organizations, such as Qingdao Ocean University and Hangzhou Business School, but I ran into a wall again and again. Those days were simply depressing.

If you are depressed, continue to look for a job and continue to check information with several roommates online. College employment network and provincial and municipal personnel information network continue to copy and mail resumes. And then went to Shanghai for the third time? The first week after New Year's Day in 2003.

Didn't go home during the winter vacation. It's too late to buy a train ticket. In fact, this is more of an excuse. The real reason is that I haven't found a job and have always felt at home? Shame to see the elders in Jiangdong? I have no idea about my graduation thesis, so I just stay at school.

About the tenth day of the first month, I went to Hangzhou for a physical examination. In order to save money, I bought a slow ticket without a seat. I stood on the train for more than 8 hours, and there was no place to stand all the way. I finally got off the train at about 5 am. When I got off the train, my legs were weak and I was top-heavy Fortunately, it's still early. I staggered into the waiting room and fell asleep as soon as I sat down. I was awakened by the cold at 7 o'clock, and quickly went to Hangzhou Chinese Medicine Hospital by bus. The result is still expected to be eliminated. The top six in the interview and written test scores can take part in the physical examination, and I ranked sixth among the top three before the test. But I came anyway. Knowing that there is no hope.

Maybe it's God's mercy. After the beginning of this semester, my work finally took shape. After my fourth and fifth visits to Shanghai, I finally signed a contract with a primary school in Shanghai to do student work. There are other news one after another: Nanjing Agricultural University is willing to admit me again; A provincial unit in Shandong Province will come to see me at school; The unit that didn't accept me in Hangzhou recommended me to another unit at the same level.

Finally, I want to say something about job hunting:

First, there are many people who oppose the expansion of enrollment. What I want to say is that there may be many problems in expanding enrollment, but there is no way out without expanding enrollment. In fact, many people are looking for jobs that have little to do with their majors. Higher education not only provides knowledge training for the educated, but also has ability training and personality cultivation. In contrast, the latter is more important. Talents with high knowledge, high ability and high personality are still in short supply. Therefore, in addition to learning knowledge, students should pay more attention to improving their overall quality.

Second, information is very important in job hunting. Actually, it's not just looking for a job. No matter what you do, information is a valuable resource. Later, I was able to participate in interviews with different units many times, first of all because I had the information. Of course, how to obtain information is the key. I am very grateful to Nantah. Not only can you surf the internet in the dormitory, but it is also free. I am also very grateful to my roommates, who found any good recruitment information and offered to share it with me.

Third, give yourself confidence, don't be conceited and don't sell yourself short. Setbacks are inevitable and may occur more than once. There will be depression, complaints, and complaints, but it will not help. You can only choose to lose and fight again and again, sum up lessons, learn from experience and make persistent efforts. I really like that sentence. Anyway, have a try. If you don't try, you don't even have a chance to fail! ?
