it's now 50 - 50

been the first interview, looks like positive response as they told will arrange a 2nd interview thru phone with the product manager in S'pore

nowadays i am not dare to have high hope until i get the real offer
there are experience that the interviewer telling me it is positive, but ends up was not getting the offer, and the HR told it is not good response from the interview session :S

so, i will just wait for next interview arrangement and hope for the best

我读<杜拉拉升职记> - how to be a boss

Excerpt from Chapter 31:
官僚的特点:
- 该做决定的时候吧,他思考;
- 遇到困难了呢,他授权!

Precisely, this is the boss style :)

我读<杜拉拉升职记> - about her recruitment standard

最近读着李可的<杜拉拉升职记>, 想写些读后感, 但是最近我非常不能专心在正经事上, 所以阅读的速度慢了很多很多.
(那我最近忙啥? 非常不好意思的告诉你, 我浪费很多很多的时间在网络上的通俗小说, 就是那些言情啦, 穿越啦等等等的没什么营养的小说)

好了, 回到主题, <杜拉拉升职记>在中国很火, 故事围绕着杜拉拉这没特别背景的女生在外企工作和攀升的过程.

这书不是告诉我们什么秘密, 但是它让我在某些方面有了另外的想法, 比如今天看到的这章:
Excerpt from Chapter 33:

拉拉定下了三条招聘原则:
一,这个人的专业技术是OK的程度,就是他能干得了活,但不出色;
二,这个人得平和而不求上进;
三,年纪小于30岁的不要,

这之前,拉拉把一位她觉得对她有威胁的人给干掉了(don't be so surprise, it is not kill, it's just fire :p)

这种招人的原则, 显示了招人的胸襟不大, 这情况之下
1. 如果想在一个公司混两口饭吃, 工作经历还算OK, 那就很可能拿到offer
2. 如果你还有很强的学习欲望, 热衷于金钱和'上位', 不用说, 肯定会被刷掉

Then, 如果你是 type 2, 面试失败后, 你需要觉得自己能力不好吗?
或者, type 2 的你, 要改变自己的追求去符合这招聘的原则吗?

所以呢, 自己的实力, 自己心里要有个底.
每次的面试的失败, 有时真的不一定是自己的问题, 因为双方都在找着适合的人
candidate 找着他要的工作环境和上司
recruiter 找着他觉得他能‘驾驶’的下属, 不是很多人能做到非常乐意的找个能力比自己强的人做下属, 那威胁性会很大的, 所谓的养虎为患啊

当然, 如果失败次数多了, 除了上述的可能性, 可能就是工资方面了.

今天就这么多...

情绪有点低落

我要努力的告诉自己,会找到更适合自己的,不要灰心

至少还活着,至少银行还有些钱能维持生活,没什么大不了

继续 click apply,继续努力联络 head hunter

Gambateh !!!

谢谢, A-Z can be very meaningful

有时,我会觉得我遇上的人还是算得上都是好人 (虽然...我本身不是什么好人...)

为啥突然有感触呐?
最近很努力的在到处乱投我的resume, 我真的很想赶快找到工作, 这样心里会踏实得多。
然后遇上个job agent.
她,给了我一些我从没想过得到的鼓励.
毕竟我一直觉得我们之间只是互取利益, 她帮忙我找合适的employer, 我拿到工作的时候, 她会得到应有的报酬.
当然,不是我直接付她钱. 这是她的工作bonus.

当她知道我工作还没着落是,发了我这封Email的内容.
虽然我貌似之前看过这篇东东,但是心里还是感动了一下.

待人真诚, 遇上对的人, 回报是让人感到happy的.
希望我能多‘吸引’这些positive sources, not for big success, but for a happy life with positive thinking :)

So, let's share this A-Z, very meaningful 的人生态度!

A = Avoid negative sources, people, places, things and habits
B = Believe in yourself
C = Consider things from every angle
D = Don't give up and don't give in
E = Enjoy life today - yesterday is done, tomorrow may never come
F = Family & friends are hidden treasures, seek them and enjoy their riches
G = Give more than you planned to
H = Hang on to your dreams
I = Ignore those who try to discourage you
J = Just do it!
K = Keep trying no matter how hard it seems - it will get easier
L = Love yourself first and most
M = Make it happen
N = Never lie, cheat or steal; always strike a fair deal
O = Open your eyes and see things as they really are
P = Practice makes perfect
Q = Quitters never win, and winners never quit
R = Read, study and learn about everything important in your life
S = Stop procrastinating
T = Take control of your own destiny
U = Understand yourself to better understand others
V = Visualise it!
W = Want it more than anything
X = Xcellerate your efforts
Y = You are unique of all God's creations, nothing can replace you
Z = Zero in your target and go for it
