Looking back on the year 2021 in one sentence

A transfer, a naked resignation, a transformation, leaving the front-end ranks of 10 years+, and entering the brand new headhunting team .

Regroup

At the beginning, I entered Ant Financial as a CSS front-end expert. In the early stage, I did not less than CSS-related content. Later, I was mainly responsible for the extension components of Alipay applets ( mini-ali-ui ).

This extension component is a open source on github. As an open source, it must not be able to do statistics related to the buried point, and in the end some data can not be counted. As a long-term maintenance project, but there is no relevant and powerful data to rely on, what has been done, what is the value, it is really unclear.

In short, that's it in the end. Fortunately, I joined the business team during a communication and continued to give full play to my advantages in CSS.

During this period, TL gave a lot of opportunities, and the one that made me most happy was the CSS Trick . At that time, the whole thing was mainly to integrate some of the CSS effects that are often used in daily life, and output HTML/axml and CSS/acss in the form of configuration, so that it can be used in H5 and small programs.

Bare words

What I did after the transfer was actually quite interesting, and the whole team was also very nice, but due to various factors, most of which were due to personal factors, I struggled for a long time and finally chose to leave. At that time, I didn't think about what I would do afterwards. With my brain, I finally filled in the resignation application in the resignation system that I opened N times, and clicked submit.

After barely resigning, I pick up the baby from home to and from school. I usually read books and dramas, and I feel very relaxed. A friend said, Xiaozhi, you are now living in retirement.

However, after going through this life for a while, I felt like I was missing something, and I wanted to start working again. During the period, I tried to go to several companies, and some friends introduced me to work remotely, but in the end, I still didn't work.

Maybe this is the impulsive punishment that people of my age should bear...

Transformation

Plus a lot of rest during the search, after another talk some, always felt like Most recruiters just think of ways to get your resume, and then recommend to the company directly, then there is no then the. At that time very curious, do search work is taking resumes, resume simple push ?

A budding tree who wanted to learn more about headhunting was eager to sprout in his heart. So, my brain was hot, yes, and again, I told a headhunting friend, how about I go as a headhunter too. So, I started to communicate more about headhunting work. In the end, I joined my current company and became a headhunter.

Interested friends can read " a month, what is Xiaozhi, who has turned from front-end development to headhunting?" .

During the time as a headhunter

Since I became a headhunter at the end of October, I have added a lot of headhunters during this period. Yes, I didn't add many candidates. On the contrary, I have added a lot of headhunters. Later, when some headhunters applied to add friends, I just ignored them. It is better to reserve some "friends" places for the front-end friends in need.

During this period of time, when searching for candidates, I read a lot of resumes. Whether it is from a recruitment website or recommended by a friend, most of the resumes have no bright spots on the whole, and some of them are in the .doc , which can be viewed in macOS. to resume with the content like pages in a word containing IE6 seen a lot of CSS3 properties, is really too mess up!

CV is best to use PDF format documents, and note that the text in the PDF is best to copy .

When communicating with many front-end partners in the early stage, part of the work was to suggest revising and optimizing resumes, which lost many opportunities. Of course, there are also many friends who feel that the revised suggestions are acceptable and have made revisions and adjustments.

In short, thinking back to more than a month of communication, the frequency and frequency of external communication is more than in the previous two years of Ant Financial.

Of course, some friends around me asked: Xiaozhi, have you issued the order?

How do you say this, how easy is it to issue an order. recommendation of 161bde973067f2 → Interview process → Talk about offer → Entry → After the probation period , the whole process can be long, it takes several months. Any link in the middle may lead to the failure of the order. At this stage, most of me are still doing accumulation, and I am also working hard to make myself an order as soon as possible. 😆

A little look ahead

Failure is the mother of success. Although I have not succeeded in placing orders so far, I feel that I am an improvement overall. Efforts and persistence must be carried out. Since I chose this business, failure is inevitable, but I still hope that I can stick to it and keep my original intention of choosing this business. Well, I hope...

• Help companies find suitable front-end partners; help front-end partners find suitable positions;
• Help more newcomers understand the front-end and enter the ranks of the front-end smoothly;
• Discuss the bits and pieces of communication front-end career development;
• Become a qualified headhunter who understands front-end technology;

Do you still write code?

The front-end attention must be continuous, because now I am doing a headhunting in the front-end direction. As for whether to write code or not, this should be based on interest. Now that there is no KPI pressure, it is still possible to toss about it after learning.

At last

has passed by the 161bde9730691c front-end industry , welcome to find a headhunter at any time, and provide the best service in place.
