I love my current work. I’m an energetic and talkative girl and I can’t imagine doing repetitive office work. What I’m doing now awakens my fightinpirit. Whenever candidates become successful because of my recommendation, I feel happy. As I like to put it, “In headhunting, when yo achieve, others achieve along with you.”However, our work’s very difficult and stressful. Working overtime’s common even on weekends. I also come across disheartening circumstances like the client company or the candidates changing their mind. In such a situation, I’ll need to do a lot of troubleshooting. When I spend a lot of time looking for suitable candidates but don’t succeed, I also get depressed thinking I’m not accomplish my goal.

4 @, C" L i$ c7 x5 L( ~5 R4 Z" z My advice to graduates is not to send out their resume at random. That’s just going to be a waste of your time. Think carefully what kind of work you want to do and remember to practice your Englih. If possible, make the Top 500 Companies your priority. If that doesn’t work out, then choose a big European or American company. Afterwards, moving from an established company to smaller company will be easier. What’ most important, though, is to be happy with your job. If your classmates have already received a job offer or an internship, don’t get anxious. Anyway, God is fair and everybody will get what he or she works hard for.

My responsibility as an intern was to input candidates’ resumes into our database. It was an easy but vital job, since the resume is a core element ofour website. I really cherished the work. Two months later, the company boss evaluated my performance and transferred me to the membership department. There, I dealt with resume checking, statistical data and website forum maintenance. The move gave me more room to show my talents.$ M/ R. @4 _5 Y" L9 w9 k

Despite your busy schedule, don’t neglect your colleagues. If you want to become a member of a ‘corporate family,’ you mustke an effort to become part of the team. Say ‘hello’ to everyone when you arrive in the morning and join others for lunch. When others point out your mistakes, don’t say ‘I believe’ or, ‘I guess,’ if you’re realllt. On the other hand, don’t keep on explaining or making excuses. Just avoid making the same mistake again.

Comments from Sally: Liang’sa very diligent girl. Her boss also told me that whatever task’s assigned to her, once she’s finished, she’ll always give feedback. If she doesn’t understand something, she’s going to ask about it until she understaShe doesn’t just keep silent, which has demonstrated to her boss her abilities.

Comments from Sally: I was impressed when Zhang asked, “How much do you get?” Her question showed that she’s a girl who shows responsibility not only for herself, but also the company. During her internship, she was very pati in the face of difficulties, and gracious even to clients who weren’t so polite. |
