The 985 girl applied for Fat Donglai, but she didn't make it to the interview.
As soon as the news came out, not only the girl's mentality collapsed, but the majority of people in the workplace also broke their defenses.
In this recruitment, a total of 209 people were needed, and 31,593 resumes were actually received.
On average, 151 people compete for one position.
The girl said that she originally felt that her major was the right one, and she also had 3 years of work experience.
I also like Fat Donglai very much, so I submitted my resume.
I just didn't expect that I couldn't get into the interview.
Fat Donglai replied: Our recruitment will be comprehensively considered, such as academic qualifications, majors and work experience, and the best will be selected.
The reason why so many outstanding people choose Fat Donglai is because they are worth it.
Employees take 30~40 days of annual leave per year, and recently added 10 days of unhappy leave, and the working time is currently 7 hours, and the plan will be 6 hours in the future. They are equipped with Mercedes-Benz at the middle level, and more than 3 million cars at the senior level.
There are values and benefits, rest and benefits, which is simply the dream of people in the workplace.

Let's do a little quiz first:
You think of your working life as if you were a job and a career B.
Do you think your career is a sprint or a long run: A sprint, B long run.
If you choose B for both.
That's beyond most people in the workplace.
If you're the other answer, then check out the book Foresight.
The author has observed tens of thousands of excellent professionals, and basically missed them.
In terms of career planning, the author of this book, Brian Featherstone, has the absolute right to speak.
He has been researching career planning for nearly 20 years.
He also gave lectures on career strategies at Yale University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Harvard, etc., which were very popular with students.
So is he just talking on paper?
First of all, he is a professional bull himself.
He served as the global chairman and CEO of Ogilvy & Mather, a subsidiary of the world's top 500 companies, and has long-term cooperation with this company, including Nestle, Coca-Cola, IKEA, IBM, etc.
The world is changing so fast, is his advice still valuable?
Some. He is an advisor to several start-up companies, and has received the 2014 Caples Andy Emmerson Award (an award related to the advertising industry) and a Silver Apple Award (generally an award for contributions to the education industry after retirement).
The book has won several awards for outstanding workplace books.
This book is an excellent elder who has worked hard in the workplace, and passes on all his experience to his children's younger generations.
I hope to help Hou Lang and take the first step steadily on the road to the workplace.

Have you ever thought about how long your career lasts?
It's about 45 years.
So how to avoid constantly changing jobs due to short-sightedness and wasting time due to confusion?
We need a career plan.
The career can be roughly divided into 3 periods, each of which is about 15 years.
Tara, for example, is a master's student in the UK.
After graduation, joining the company is the beginning of the first stage, which focuses on learning and exploring.
Tara's preparation for her first job search began when she was in school.
When it comes to choosing courses, she chooses courses that help her develop problem-solving, teamwork, and intellectual curiosity.
In your spare time, you can participate in extracurricular activities, trips, and internships that enhance your core competencies.
Slowly, I got to know a lot of excellent people.
Tara screened out, removed those who misbehaved or didn't get along with her, and the rest treated each other with sincerity and seriously maintained long-term relationships.
Tara then develops a job search plan.
Think of your job search as a battle, plan and give it your all.
Tara made a list of the 20 companies she wanted to go to, and took the initiative to get to know the company or people in the same field.
Tara is also actively involved in school recruitment, which is a workplace novice village task that can develop skills to truly deal with the workplace.
Online recruitment Tara is not left behind, first select a few, remember the deadline, and apply directly online.
Before applying, ask experienced seniors to help guide the resume, even if there is not much feedback, Tara continues to submit.
Not for the perfect resume, just to learn to be more efficient and intelligent to express.
In terms of doing things, Tara is already very good.
But how do you network?
She made a list of all the people who could help, including acquaintances, strangers, and strangers.
Strangers can go to the alumni network and LinkedIn to find each other, send emails to each other, and try to get a chance to meet.
Do your homework ahead of time, make sure the conversation is quality, and ask someone to help her recommend someone who is more suitable for the direction she wants to turn to.
Tara finds interview skills: highlight what she needs to be good at in the company, and then find the right intermediary to recommend support.
Tara successfully entered the first stage of her career.

Dancer Rachel, 24 years old, suffered an ankle injury in an accident, and her first career ended, and Rachel had to start over.
After graduating from Brown University's Department of Philosophy, I still wanted to do something for art, so I was ready to become a lawyer.
A lawyer friend advised her: You might as well study business, help those artists survive, and let them concentrate on creation.
Rachel was empowered and went to the business school.
After graduating, she opened a company teaching ballet.
The first phase of the career was simply terrible.
Often due to lack of funds, good words with suppliers, constant friction with the board of directors and employees, and fierce quarrels in serious cases.
Even so, it had to be hard pressed to continue.
However, more than ten years later, the theater where she used to dance approached her and asked her to be a candidate for executive director.
At that time, she was the youngest, the only former dancer, and the only woman to be selected.
She was very good, she took this position, and she did a great job for the next 11 and a half years.
Finding what the world needs, what she likes, and what she wants to be good at, she successfully combines her passion with her strength, and devotes 10,000 hours to focus on polishing herself where she needs it.
This is the second stage of the career.

Mary Catherine Bateson, a well-known sociologist, said in a TEDx talk:
Over the past century, the life expectancy of people in advanced economies has increased by a full 30 years.
So, after retirement, the career has just entered the third stage.
Tim, who worked as a multinational president at Cleaner & Gamble before his retirement, said that he couldn't take a breather for a long time before retirement because the company wanted to be profitable.
The more you do what you are good at, the more they ask you to do it, and the more you do it, the less time you have to breathe.
Retirement is the perfect release for Tim, who can start anew.
Tim tried a lot of roles before he found the next thing to do: a member of the YMCA sponsored organization.
He loves kids and sports, he can raise money, and he can use it all.
Here, Tim perfectly completes the third stage of identity transformation: from organizer to advisor.
Retirement is like stopping the car and turning off the engine, be cautious and cautious, don't brake suddenly, don't drag it non-stop, and get off when you get to the station.
But when you get off the bus, don't stop the music, pave the way in advance, and exit gracefully.
Career occupies the longest part of life, so career planning is also life planning.
Finally, a sentence from Chairman Fat Donglai is for everyone:
We are always living ourselves and doing what we love. Like above all else.
