Although things didn’t go as smoothly as I expected, I told myself not to panic. One day, I saw a 1010job advertisement on a bus and I registered, hoping to get some job leads. I did receive a lot of job recommendations from other members, and also got a three-month internship at the company.

　　On my first week, I basically acted like an assistant. I helped the sales department look for new clients and update information. It was a bit boring. The following week, I began doing customer service-related work and gradually understood the whole process, from buying an advertisement to publishing it on our site to making contracts.P/oz}y:kM

It not only needed patience to deal with trivial matters, but also good interpersonal skills, since you’re communicating with all sorts of people. I didn’t well at the beginning and wasn’t sure I was right for the position. However, I told myself the more challenges I faced, the more experience I’d bring to my future work.I think the company recruited me not because I’mclever or exceptional, but because of my attitude to work. If I were a boss, I’d rather hire an enthusiastic person even if he or she isn’t outstanding, rather than someone talented but lazy 　As an intern in the customer service department, I admired people in the headhunting department; I thought their work was prestigious and exciting. Whenever I saw senior consultants talking with job candidates and doing in-depth analyses of various industries, I told myself to work hard so that one day, I’d become one of those consultants too. After college, the company gave me a call, offering me a five-month internship with the headhunting department. They said they noticed my previous good performance and thought I’d do well at headhunting. That period taught me a lotand made me grow up fast. I was transformed from an ignorant graduate to a person knowledgeable in the industry, especially in the finance and purchasing sector. I met many senior candidates in the industry, who’ve broaened my outlook in life. Some of them have even become good friends.

　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.

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.

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..R]-J:?$V{0Z

　　I want to share with students the lessons I’ve learned so far. If your boss gives you work, whenever you finish it, tell him or her immediately, instead of aiting to be asked about it. Be proactive, enthusiastic and tell your boss about your ideas.t NihgqKe+Q

　　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.?{[a#gIWx)c

　　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.

Comments from Sally: Wan’s interview gave me the impression that he’s serious and meticulous, so I assigned e resume work to him. Given such a trivial job, Wan never displayed any impatience or dissatisfaction. He lives very far away from the office but everyday, he’d arrive half an hour early and immediately start work. Thismoved me, and was an important factor in our offering him a job.
