Zhihu's 29.7 yuan consultation

Hello, I am why.

Didn’t I say that someone mentioned a consultation to me on Zhihu.

I sorted it out today, and after desensitizing the key information, I shared it with everyone.

But in the process of writing, I actually wanted to give up several times.

It feels like this thing is written like a life mentor. I didn't really understand it myself. How could He De be someone else's mentor?

So what needs to be explained in advance is that the response to this question is purely based on personal limited life experience and career, plus some of my own observations, and the answer from my own perspective.

Everyone's perspective on the problem leads to very different answers in the end.

It doesn't matter, rational communication, civilized openness.

problem

Hello, I was the person who chatted with you on Zhihu last night.

I have gone through the postgraduate entrance examination twice myself, but failed to pass the entrance examination. This year I am a little bit worse. In particular, I would like to ask you whether your postgraduate qualifications are important in your future work.

I myself graduated from xxx university (211) in software engineering, but I am afraid that my academic qualifications will prevent my development in the future.

Because I lost my identity as a freshman this year. After facing for half a month, I have only found a 12k job opportunity. I want to ask how I should prepare the technology myself, the java direction I have been taking.

SSM SpringBoot SpringCloud But now I have forgotten a lot of things.

Do you have any suggestions for me at the moment?

I have a deep feeling after reading your story, and I have been very tortured these days. I really disturb you!

Reply

Hello, thank you for your trust.

First of all, I regret your postgraduate entrance examination. It is indeed a pity.

Then, from my personal point of view, to answer your first question:

Is the postgraduate degree important in future work?

Yes, it is important.

But the importance of this depends on the direction of future work. If it is a postgraduate degree in a public institution, it is a great bonus, or a necessary item, in most cases.

But if you are in the Internet industry, in my opinion, the most important thing for a postgraduate degree is the year of graduation from the school, and the period of time when the school is recruited, it is your stepping stone to enter the big factory.

Therefore, I generally recommend that students who have the ability to impact graduate students in good schools try their best to impact.

However, as your work experience improves and the number of years of work increases, the advantages or disadvantages brought about by your academic qualifications will gradually fade.

In your case, the impact failed, it doesn't matter.

Your undergraduate degree is 211, which is also a counterpart major. You are born in a class of Zheng Miaohong, and you want to work in the direction of Java R&D in the future.

If you look at the recruitment profiles of major companies, most of the requirements in the column of academic qualifications are "undergraduate or above".

The postgraduate degree is better, but the undergraduate degree is enough, and your undergraduate school is also very good.

So I think it’s a pity not to be admitted to graduate school, but the impact on the Java job you want to do is not very, very large.

Therefore, do not have to worry about academic qualifications, which prevents your own development.

In actual work, in most cases, it is ability. In the face of absolute ability advantages, academic qualifications are just icing on the cake.

It is true that a good degree will bring you to a good platform. But just because you missed this opportunity does not mean that you missed a good platform.

In fact, I think it's a pity that you have lost your identity as a freshman.

This is really a pity, because the interview points and the difficulty of the interview for school recruitment and social recruitment are very different.

From now on, you will be ready to take the social recruitment route, and you need to spend more time on technical improvement, brushing more common interview questions, which we also call recitation of eight-legged essays.

You said that you found a 12k job opportunity, which shows that you still have a certain technical strength, so you can go deeper and consolidate it.

On how to prepare for the Java interview.

I also analyze it from the perspective of when I am an interviewer.

The first is to polish your resume carefully. There are many articles on how to write a good technical resume. You can read more, learn from templates, wording, and typesetting.

Then, make sure that you have written the technical points on your resume. At least you have actually used them, know how to use them, and don’t need to be exhaustive, but at least you have your own in-depth understanding of one of these points to avoid the interviewer asking you on your resume. The situation that you are hesitating and unable to answer.

If you don’t know anything on your resume, you will lose points in this case.

The second is the items on the resume. Write as detailed as possible, but the purpose of the detailed part is to reflect more of the part that you are responsible for and optimization.

Regarding the items in it, you can even pack a little stuff in, but you can't pack it blindly. For example, for example, the optimization points of the project that can be done, but have not been done at all, can be written on the resume as having been achieved, as long as you can rationalize it.

The interviewer doesn't care what your project is about. What he cares about is what you have done in the project and whether there are any difficulties.

That's why this part is called [Project Experience]. Don't just write about the project, the important thing is the word "experience" at the back.

However, there is a special situation about this part that the project you wrote and the project you are interviewing for are very closely matched.

Even in this case, the difficulty of the technical interview will be lowered several levels, and the interview is mainly to exchange project details and difficulties.

You might even think that the interviewer is making plans.

Without it, this kind of person, project experience can be transferred, and after a little understanding, you can get started.

But this situation should not exist for you at present.

What I mean by this case is that the computer industry also has subdivisions. If you choose your own subdivisions, and if you continue to cultivate it, you will have unexpected surprises.

Then there is the question of some development frameworks in the interview. There is no skill in this, but I will work hard to study it myself. Take the demo, watch the official website, watch the video, read the book.

Finally, as far as I know, many interviewers now generally ask you: Is there anything you are good at, but I didn't ask about it?

You have to prepare this interview question well. The appearance of this interview question, in most cases, belongs to your normal interview performance, which can let you pass or hang you up.

Finally, I will give you a chance to show your enthusiasm for technology.

In fact, it is what I said earlier that I specialize in deeper and technically related areas.

But it has to be a common technical point in everyone's coding. It can be the understanding of the framework and the familiarity of the source code, but it does not have to be a framework.

I just give an example.

So, to sum up.

• The first one: In the future work, the advantages or disadvantages brought by academic qualifications will gradually fade.
• The second one: first polish your resume and prepare for social recruitment.
• The third: brush more interview questions, go crazy to see more interview questions, and read the interview.

Wish you find a satisfactory job. Come on.

Ask two questions

After that, the student asked two more questions. as follows:

Hello, thank you. I am also in the stage of looking for a job. I have two questions:

The first one is the direction of Java I studied during my university, and I also learned Android, and decided this direction after the front end. But recently I was looking for a job. There are several C++ directions that have the intention of giving offers. Java is clear. Finally, I asked if I have the intention to do C++. I would like to ask if the C++ direction is worth trying. I don't know much about this. How do job opportunities in Java compare with those in C++?

The second question is, I am also looking for a job in my own home now. I am a bit confused at the moment. I can’t be at home all the time. I always have to go to the city where I will work. Then, I should get the job during the interview. How much salary can I leave for my city in the future?

I know that the salary is determined by my own ability, but I can't keep looking for it. After all, the company wants me to go there soon.

Gold three silver four, for example, in Beijing, you can find the salary first, and you can leave after you find it. If you can't find it after April, you can reduce it to how much.

Can you give me a suggestion, after all, I have never been outside myself. First-tier cities and second-tier cities hope you can give me an opinion.

I really appreciate it!

replied as below

first question:

Since I mainly write Java, I don't know much about C++, and I don't have much contact with it. But from what I have observed, generally speaking, the salary of C++ is higher than that of Java, because it is a bit more difficult to get started. But Java has far more job opportunities than C++.

This is the current status of Java and C++.

I can't help you decide how to choose, you have to decide by yourself.

In fact, the development of language, after you have worked for a few years, you will find that it is just a tool.

Maybe you only know Java now, but as long as you have a programming foundation, it may be a bit painful to switch to the language in the early stage, but it will not always be so painful.

second question:

The controversy on this issue is very big. I really can't give a reasonable and clear salary. I can only say from my own experience.

Speaking of the minimum standard, 10k in the first-tier city of Beijing can go.

Chengdu 7k can also go to the second-tier city.

However, the two figures mentioned above are from a personal perspective. In fact, there are many programmers in Beijing with a salary of less than 10k, and they can live quite well.

I give the example of these two cities because I have stayed in them and they are basically the same, but other cities have different levels, so it's hard to say.

I think the first job should be that the platform is greater than the salary. The priority is to see if the platform is helpful for your future career, and then compare the salary.

From a good platform, the next job will be easier to find, and it is not impossible to double the salary.

Write at the back

This is part of the problem in this consultation worth 29.7 yuan.

In fact, the above problems appear every year among batches of young people who have just entered society.

While they are full of yearning for the future, they are also engulfed in fear.

I don't know where to step next. This kind of intermittent smugness will actually accompany you for a long, long time, even longer than your career, and accompany you into old age.

When will it end?

That's when you "know the fate of heaven", so what the ancients left behind is true wisdom.

Since ancient times, such questions have been raised countless times and answered countless times.

However, no one can answer this kind of questions about the future clearly. It can only be the people who come to express their opinions, so that you can listen and learn from it. These will not be and cannot be the standard answers.

If there is a person who can answer his own questions in the confused period, then this person will personally walk through this confused self, several years later.

For example, when I just graduated, I was full of yearning for the question of whether to go to Beijing, but at the same time I was trapped by fear.

No one can give me the answer, you can only give me suggestions from your own perspective.

Some people told me to go, and some advised me not to go.

After that I went and left again.

Now someone can give me the answer at that time, and this person is myself at this time.

So believe in time, time will give you the answer.

(What's the matter, it's like chicken soup anymore, don't write it, close it.)
