HR不會(huì)告訴你的10個(gè)秘密

1.If you call to check on the status of your résumé? and I ask, ‘What job did you apply for?’’If you don’t know, you’re done.

2.Someone might tell you to ‘Be yourself’ in the interview. Don’t be yourself. That’s the worst advice ever. We don’t want people who are neurotic or quirky or whatever else. All we care about is your skill and experience.

3.I was asked by one CEO to hire the long-legged girl with the long dark hair even though she didn’t have the right skills. Another time, I was instructed not to hire anyone with children because the company had too many people leaving for soccer games. That kind of thing happens all the time.

4.In interviews, everyone works well with others, and everyone learns quickly. Please tell me something else.

5.I know a lot more about you when you walk in the door than you realize. I’ll search for you on the web and often use my own personal network to do a pre-interview reference check.

6.Never accept the job immediately. Say you need to think about it overnight. Once you sign on the dotted line there’s no room for negotiation.

7.If we ask ‘What salary are you looking for?’say you’re flexible, or say it depends on the responsibilities of the job. Try not to name a salary unless we really push you, because that gives us a leg up in the negotiating.

8.Don’t ever tell me that you have to have this job because you’re going to lose your house, your kids have nothing to eat, your mother has cancer. Companies aren’t a charity.

9.Many people think, ‘If I work extra hard, I’m going to get noticed.’But it doesn’t work that way. Make sure your supervisor and your supervisor’s supervisor are well of aware of what you’re contributing.

10.If you have a question, come to my office. Don’t corner me in the bathroom.
