Interrupting job hunting years ago, beware of three hidden dangers. There are no eternal friends and enemies in the workplace, and the character is revealed in the details. Not being trapped in the workplace is a great success. Let's talk about three hidden dangers that interrupted job hunting vigilance years ago and those things in the workplace.
1 Three hidden dangers of job hunting before the Spring Festival in China, the employment panic before the Spring Festival is a long-standing "historical problem". Old problems appear year after year, and they have not improved year after year. From the perspective of the long-term career development of employees, we should pay attention to it. The author interviewed a career planner. Career planners pointed out that the sudden interruption of job hunting years ago will inevitably lead to a "career gap period", which has many hidden dangers for the long-term career development of job seekers. Taking Wang Wei as an example, it is mainly manifested in the following three points:
1, which makes it more difficult for them to find jobs.
A few months ago, Wei Wang's job search was not smooth for three reasons. First, he lacks his own position. Many fresh graduates simply don't know the employment direction of their major, and they don't know what they want to do or what they can do when looking for a job. The 500 resumes they submitted were basically blindly invested in Shanghai, and the effect was definitely not good. Second, there is no job search direction. Because I don't know my own development direction, it is difficult to make a targeted resume to attract the attention of HR. It is inevitable that few companies will eventually become "cannon fodder" for job hunting. Third, the ability to apply for a job is extremely weak. I don't know my own advantages and disadvantages. A resume is suitable for all jobs in the world. After submitting your resume, passively wait for the result. It's wishful thinking to get a job. Based on the above analysis, it was still so difficult to find a job before, and the unemployment experience in the middle was extended for more than a month. When he comes back years later, the competition will inevitably escalate in March. The longer he leaves the workplace, the harder it will be for Wang Wei to find a job.
2, causing HR to question its ability.
Long-term absence of work record can easily affect HR's evaluation and impression of job seekers' professional experience and ability. Generally speaking, it is an acceptable fact for HR that women have a certain career gap because of getting married and having children, but for men, the career gap of several months or even one or two years will undoubtedly make people question his work ability and past experience. What will HR think of the unemployment record for several months? Low working ability, no enterprise is willing to hire? Weird personality, publicity, can't integrate into the enterprise? Or there are other reasons and so on. In a word, if Wang Wei returns to Shanghai to find a job after five years, the five-month career gap will make him questioned by HR.
3, seriously affected the professional mentality.
Looking for a job for a long time without results is a heavy blow to the mentality of job seekers. Repeated resumes are not responded, which makes job seekers have great confidence in their abilities and full of hope for job hunting. They are always disappointed. It is easy for people to doubt their abilities in repeated sufferings, and they will gradually develop fear of difficulties in the workplace. For fear of rejection, they simply fled the workplace and stopped actively seeking jobs. This is also the reason why many job seekers finally choose to go abroad, take the postgraduate entrance examination and take the civil service examination after a period of unsatisfactory job hunting. We see the word "despair" in Wang Wei's expression, which shows that his psychological pressure is great and his job-hunting mentality needs to be adjusted, otherwise it will inevitably lead to a vicious circle of job hunting in the future.
China Professional Planners Association pointed out that "career blank period" has gradually become a common symptom that plagues people in the workplace. From the perspective of career planning development, the fundamental reason why professionals have a "career blank period" is the lack of a good career planning. For Wang Wei, it is necessary to make use of the favorable opportunity of few competitors years ago to analyze the reasons why he can't find enough jobs for a long time and make a good plan for his job search.
Three hidden dangers of stopping job hunting years ago. Looking for a job is looking for a job opportunity. What is successful job hunting?
Milu said: Attitude is everything. What kind of attitude you use to apply for a job almost determines whether you can succeed! First, the job-hunting mentality is very important. What attitude should job seekers use to apply for a job? Career experts point out that different people have completely different attitudes towards job hunting, and their attitudes towards job hunting can be roughly divided into the following categories: these attitudes are unacceptable!
Misunderstanding mentality:
1, lack of self-confidence. Graduates with this attitude tend to have a strong sense of inferiority. These job seekers lack understanding and confidence in their abilities. They often think they can't do it before they go to war, especially when they are interviewed by many people. In the face of increasingly fierce competition, it is normal and common for many inexperienced college students to lack confidence. There are many reasons for self-distrust, including physical, environmental, family or social reasons, but mainly psychological factors. For example, when looking for a job, I always make up my mind, shrink back too much, dare not say "good" to the work I can do, and always say "try", which makes me feel very insecure. Everyone doesn't want to lack confidence in themselves, so how can we improve our confidence? First of all, we should always encourage ourselves, believe in ourselves, and gradually hone ourselves in practical actions. A person's self-confidence is not innate, but gradually cultivated by constantly overcoming difficulties.
I don't think so. Many graduates may have contacted employers, but there is still some time to go to work. In order to spend this time, they often use their spare time to apply for temporary jobs in the talent market. Because they are clear-headed, they often regard applying for such temporary jobs as "great luck". If you are lucky, you may apply successfully, but it doesn't matter if you don't succeed. So these people showed a casual and disapproving attitude during the interview. When answering the questions raised by the examiner, he was also talking and laughing, not serious at all. Of course, it is difficult to make the application successful with this attitude of luck and disapproval.
3. Eager job hunting attitude will often be encountered in job hunting and job selection. Some college students are looking for hot jobs on job-hunting websites. The more people apply, the greater their desire for these jobs. As a result, people are crowded into narrow alleys such as foreign-funded enterprises, hotels and foreign trade departments when applying for jobs, and some even "forget themselves" or are deceived. Therefore, in the employment guidance, we have repeatedly warned students that job hunting and job selection is a serious and solemn event, which must be seriously considered and handled with caution, and must not blindly follow the crowd "by feeling".
4, supercilious Many graduates who have just left school often think that they are rich in knowledge, extraordinary in ability and handsome in appearance, and the employer must be loved by everyone. However, when they hear a series of questions, questions and rhetorical questions from the examiner, they feel that they still have a lot to learn, or that they still have many shortcomings and deficiencies. At this time, I feel my own shortcomings and make myself more flustered when applying for the job. A supercilious job seeker may eventually be ignored.
The attitude of quick success and instant benefit can often be seen in college students or other intellectuals with higher education. Their motivation to apply for a job or choose a job is not only a strong desire to contribute to the country, society and people, but also a desire to obtain high income and high status. Many undergraduates, masters and doctoral students flock to special economic zones, to foreign-funded enterprises, or to establish private companies integrating science, industry and trade. Everyone hopes that their future career will be stable and their income will be rich. You have to adjust your mentality to this!
Positive attitude
1, Optimism People often call today's world an era of competition, from confrontation between countries to competition between people. Competition is impacting people's career and life, their consciousness and thoughts, and so is job hunting. If there is no optimistic and enterprising spirit and strong desire to make progress in the fierce competition, it is difficult to succeed. On the contrary, if you are an optimistic and enterprising job seeker, you can always regard every interview opportunity as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, which can be met but not sought, and new success is beckoning to you.
Face to face is the basic quality of a successful person. Whether you succeed or fail, as long as you pay and work hard, you will certainly get something. Even if you spend money to buy lessons, it is worthwhile to lose money to gain insight. Job seekers with this mentality will not be afraid of setbacks and failures in the interview, which will greatly enhance their self-confidence in the interview, so as to answer the examiner's questions freely and confidently. Even if you meet a competitor who is better than yourself in all aspects, you will not feel ashamed. With this positive job-hunting mentality, job seekers will show great courage and endurance and strive to find their ideal job until they succeed.
3. Job seekers who are neither humble nor supercilious, with this attitude, first show extreme confidence in themselves. They will think that the current application is a two-way choice, employers have the right to choose our graduates, and our graduates also have the qualification and right to choose employers that suit their majors and specialties. After some people think so, job seekers will naturally have a supercilious attitude, so that the fear and tension that may arise during job interviews will disappear, so as to better play their due level. Look at the above attitude, and then compare yourself, I believe you will choose the attitude that suits you! Oh, I'm so tired. Let's have a rest!
Tell you a story:
Supplementary case: psychological height determines the success rate of job hunting. In the recruitment process of the talent market, it is found that some powerful young people are often discouraged from some suitable units and companies because of their "psychological height" in job hunting, and often miss the opportunity and even fail in job hunting. This article talks about how to break through this height limit. In order to study the limitations of "psychological height", someone once did an experiment: she put a flea in a glass and found that the flea jumped out at once. Repeated several times, the result is still the same.
According to the test, the jumping height of fleas can generally reach about 400 times of their bodies, so fleas can be called the champion of high jump in the animal kingdom. Next, the experimenter put the flea in the cup again, but this time, a glass cover was added to the cup at the same time. Bang, the flea hit the glass cover heavily. The flea is confused, but it won't stop, because the flea's lifestyle "jumps" and it is hit again and again. The flea began to get smart. It began to adjust its jumping height according to the height of the lid.
After a while, I found that the flea never touched the lid again, but jumped freely under the lid. An hour later, the experimenter began to gently remove the cover. The flea didn't know that the cover had been taken off, and continued to jump at the original height. Three hours later, she found fleas still jumping there. A day later, I found the poor flea still jumping in this glass-in fact, it couldn't jump out of this glass.
In the process of job hunting, many people are also living such a "flea life", trying to succeed again and again, but often backfiring and failing again and again. After several failures, they began to either complain about the unfairness of the world or doubt their abilities. Instead of pursuing success at all costs, they lowered the standard of success again and again-even if all the original restrictions were lifted. Just like the "glass cover" just now, although it has been taken off, they have been scared by the collision and dare not jump any more, or they are used to it and don't want to jump any more. People are often willing to endure the life of losers because they are afraid of the high limit of success. Can a flea really not jump out of this cup? Absolutely not. Only after several collisions, its heart has acquiesced that the height of this cup is insurmountable.
The way to make this flea jump out of this glass again is very simple, just take a small stick and suddenly hit the glass hard; Or take an alcohol lamp and heat it at the bottom of the cup. When the flea is too hot to stand, it will jump out with a bang. As Sun Tzu's Art of War said, "After death."
People are like this sometimes. Many people are afraid to pursue success in the process of finding a job, not because they can't pursue success, but because they silently recognize a "psychological height" in their hearts, which often implies their subconscious mind that it is impossible and there is no way to go to this company. I remember six years ago, a friend of mine went to the south to apply for a job. According to her expertise and talents, it is not a problem to manage a department. I wrote a letter of recommendation to a classmate who is a chief engineer in a telecommunications company and asked her to make an appointment for an interview.
I didn't expect her to say that she hadn't worked as a supervisor in such a big telecommunications company. I was afraid that she would fail or do badly in the interview and affect her friend's face. Had to "settle for second best". She first submitted resumes to several employers and waited for half a month. The result was nothing. Then, she went to the district-level talent market or employment agency and met several employers. The result is "high is not low."
Finally, she called my classmate in the telecom company, and the secretary of the office answered the phone and asked, "Who are you looking for?" She replied, "I'm looking for manager Yu." Secretary: "Sorry, Manager Yu is in a meeting. Can I take a message for you? " ? She was embarrassed to leave a message. A week later, she came to tell me the above situation. I told her the above "flea story" and told her some of my own experiences. When she came to work the next day, she was relieved to call, and the secretary of the general office called again, but she called my classmate by her first name. The secretary dared not neglect her and quickly answered the phone.
Now my friend has become the design director of the company. President Yu said to me many times, "I should thank you." The colleague you introduced to our company is honest, capable and has the fastest progress. " . It can be seen that there is a psychological problem in the job search process, which is the "psychological commanding height" that ordinary people flinch from. The greater the job search space and success rate.
