Little Tadpole Series: Routines and Anti-routines of Soft Questions in Interview (Part 1)

Preface

Recently it was a job-hopping season, and I found that some friends did not answer very well on some non-technical soft questions.

As we all know, programmers have low emotional intelligence, and these soft problems are precisely deceptive and boasting. For straight male cancer with poor acting skills, it is simply a natural nemesis.

In fact, don't worry too much, there are often only a few soft problems. With a little training and preparation, you can become a high-end ape.

Question 1: Talk about your own shortcomings

Acting test: 4 stars

This question hides the killing of chickens everywhere, and many small partners will put their hearts to the bottom and honestly tell all their shortcomings, such as: "I have a bad temper", "I am slow in learning things", "I am greedy for money and good sex."

Everyone has this shortcoming, but there is no need to say it.

Many friends said, I will be a real man, do you like it or not. The people outside are all fascinating swordsmen pretending to be beep, so I want to be my true self.

In fact, this is not your true self at all, this is low emotional intelligence. I don't know how to act on the spot, and I don't know how to say the right words on specific occasions.

So, how to say a shortcoming, but not exactly the shortcoming of the shortcoming, can also make people think that this is the shortcoming of the advantage

You should act like this:

He sighed, smiled, tilted his head 45 degrees and looked towards the ground, saying: I occasionally get tired late at night because of technical problems specializing in research. In the future, I will pay more attention to the balance between technical learning and work status.

Here are a few details pay attention to the following

"Tilt your head 45 degrees and look towards the ground" behaviorally makes you feel like you have no arrogance and are humble and easy to get along with.
In the answer, the verbs such as "make", "make" and "tired" were used many times to make people feel that you are not artificial and grounded.
I said that my shortcomings are because I love learning too much. It's like saying that my shortcomings are because I am too rich. This is not a shortcoming at all, but an advantage. It's just another way of saying it and go directly to Tianrilong.

This is the legendary anti-routine, the high-end game between the programmer and the interviewer, the top pull

`Question 2: What do you think about working overtime?`

`Acting test: 3 stars`

This question is really easy to be asked about fried chicken. First of all, no one likes to work overtime. However, as long as there are "agile development" and "talking about overtime views", it is most likely a company that often works overtime.

I think normal overtime work is acceptable as long as it is not in the famous black factories in the industry.

After working in Dachang for 8 years, I summarized several reasons that caused me to work overtime:

Don't like thinking
Not capable
Playful and good.
poverty
I can’t say the fifth point, I understand everything I understand

In the past 8 years, my mentality towards overtime has ranged from early resistance, to mid-term patience, to the present initiative. I found that more you don’t want to work overtime, the more overtime you will come to you. It’s better to take the initiative to attack and learn skills. , Actively think about the optimization points in the work.

By developing some engineering and automated tools to replace repetitive tasks, you will gradually find that your work will get twice the result with half the effort, and you will no longer be so passive. It is really much better than being forced to work overtime by holding your head.

Xun once said: 16100b67480c74 "Work is like a strong J. Instead of resisting, it is better to close your eyes and enjoy." It is very sad, but it is also the way for middle-aged diaosi to survive.

So, this question has a very good answer:

`如果是工作需要我会义不容辞加班。但同时，我也会思考工作中的优化点，将重复性工作，通过开发一些工程化、自动化工具去代替，提高工作效率，减少不必要的加班`

`Question 3: Why did you leave your previous job?`

`Acting test: 2 stars`

There are several points to note. When talking about the reasons for resignation, there are several taboos:

I can’t say that you are arguing with the last leader
Can't say that I was fired
I can’t say that my last company has turned off, so I changed my job

Remember, anyway, don’t speak ill of the previous company or leader.

The correct performance should be to show the interviewer with a grateful attitude, no matter what your family does to you. It is because of some irresistible factor that caused you to leave

There is a regular answer: previous company's platform tends to be stable. I think of a bigger platform to broaden my horizons, better show my strength, and let myself create greater value.

I have seen a few funny answers: "My wife is about to give birth, and I want to go to a company that can leave work on time", "I'm broken in love and want to go to a place to start again", hehe, but Lao Tie still doesn't answer that way. it is good

`Question 4: How to deal with hr and the interviewer making things difficult`

`Acting test: 5 stars`

This situation is what I really encountered. The second company in my career (a well-known big factory) was made difficult by hr at the time.

She was very arrogant and despised me. She said a few words that impressed me

Your background is very average. The last company is a small company. We generally only need candidates who have experience in large companies.
We all recruit 985 graduate students, your overall quality is not as good as I expected
The few project experiences written in your resume are all too common and don't have any popularity. Why do you think we will want you?

After the interview, I was actually very angry. I felt that there was a problem with the character of that hr, but I resisted it from beginning to end.

The last thing is weird. . . I also got an offer, got the salary and rank I expected. . . . .

I asked her why she interviewed candidates like this a long time later

Her answer is to the effect: "HR usually makes things difficult for you. They want to suppress your momentum, make you frustrated, and make you feel unworthy of us, increase your success rate of accepting offers, and increase your initiative to negotiate salary in the future. right."

This is definitely a kind of manipulation of human psychology. . . .

The second point is particularly important. "Test your emotional intelligence. Those candidates who are irritated, retort madly, and lose control of their emotions at random stimulation are absolutely unacceptable. People who can bear it all the way, are neither humble nor overbearing, and maintain self-confidence. Prove your ability to withstand stress and ensure that you can handle all kinds of work relationships and extreme situations in your work in the future."

Her answer inspired me. It may be that I have typed too much code. I have never thought about it. It turns out that human nature can be measured and proven just like code.

Since then, I have been quite recognized for the hr professionalism of Dachang

Of course, this kind of trouble may also be the early buds of pua, and it is extremely scary to think carefully. . .

So how should candidates behave and answer the situation in which candidates are made difficult during the interview?

Everyone can think for yourself

I put the answer in github and will post it later. If you have a better idea, you can also leave me a message: first tadpole

`Summarize`

The above 4 questions expose some of the routines and anti-routines in the interview, and show the skills of acting and acting on the spot. Many people may think this is hypocritical.

Here is another quote from Xun: 16100b67480f94 "When turbidity becomes a normal state, innocence will also be a crime."

Hypocritical people are sometimes a kind of self-protection.

Perhaps this is not hypocrisy, but a law of survival, because if you don't, you will be fooled by those who do it.

I hope you can trigger some thoughts, summarize yourself, and improve yourself in response to the questions raised above and the corresponding answers. This is not only for interviews, but also at work.

Due to space limitations, the answers to several other soft questions will be announced in the next issue:

1. In the workplace, your technical plan is not in line with your colleagues, how to deal with it?
2. If your plan is not in line with the leadership, how to deal with it?
3. What is your plan for the next five years
4. What do you think of ppt culture
5. What value can your entry bring to us
