(2015年8月27日,/Hroot.com/)招聘专家瀚纳仕提醒求职者,即使你想要给面试官留下一个好印象从而在面试中脱颖而出,你也不应该在领英或者微信上联系他们。
社交媒体是非常重要的社交和调查工具,但也有一定的局限。招聘专家认为,求职者在面试前后都要注意合理运用社交媒体。
“对于求职者们来说,从公开的信息中做面试的前期调研是无可非议的,”瀚纳仕亚洲区执行总监Christine
Wright说道。“但从一个积极地为面试做准备的候选人到一个给人压迫感且强势的候选人有时只有一线之差。”
“如果候选人在面试前或面试后马上在领英上和面试官建立联系,这种行为一定是越界的。在你真正得到这份工作前,这么做会让人觉得你是一个自以为是的人,因为面试官和你并没有那么熟悉。
“同样的道理适用于各种社交媒体工具——所以也不要向你的面试官发送微信好友请求。这会被视为非常不职业的行为,让你显得非常缺乏经验,”
Christine说道。
那你能够做些什么呢?瀚纳仕认为,你完全可以在社交媒体上通过如下途径了解你的面试官:
- 推测你所应聘的职位和面试官之间的联系——这能让你更好地了解如何回答问题,比如你应该侧重技术方面还是实施过程方面。
- 企业文化——你可以感觉到该企业更喜欢哪种类型的员工。
- 项目和客户——你可以去了解该企业正在运营的项目以及他们合作的客户。
- 共同认识的人——你可以找找是否有前同事在这家公司工作。如果有,可以询问一下他们关于该企业的信息。
- 已出版或刊登的博客和文章——阅读你的面试官撰写的博客或文章,这能让你了解他对目前所在领域发展趋势的看法。
- 评论——你可以评论一两篇他撰写的和该行业相关的博客。如果你的评论有独到的见解,那么你的面试官或许会在面试中认出你的名字,但是不要过分表现。
Hays survey: it it’s not okay for jobseekers to connect
with your interviewer on Social Media
(Aug. 27, 2015,/Hroot.com/) You want to stand out and make a
good impression in your next job interview, but recruiting experts
Hays warns that sending a LinkedIn connection or we-chat friend
request to your interviewer is not the way to do
it.
Social media is an important networking and researching tool,
but there are boundaries and experts say that jobseekers need to be
aware of the appropriate way to utilise social media before and
after a job interview.
“It makes sense for jobseekers to look at publicly available
information on social media as part of their pre-interview
research,” says Christine Wright, Managing Director of Hays in
Asia. “But there is a difference between researching in order to
prepare for your interview and crossing the line from an
enthusiastic candidate to a pushy and aggressive
one.
“That line definitely gets crossed when a candidate sends a
request to their interviewer before or immediately after an
interview to connect on LinkedIn. If you get the job by all means
connect, but until then it can make you seem presumptuous as you
are implying a level of familiarity that doesn't exist.
“The same rule applies to all social media – so do not send a
we-chat friend request to your interviewer. It is not inappropriate
and more than anything points to your inexperience when it comes to
professional business conduct,” says Christine.
So what can you do? According to Hays it is perfectly
acceptable to research your interviewer on social media, provided
you focus on:
- Determining how her or his role
relates to the role you have applied for – this can give you a
better idea of how to focus your answers, for example on the
technical aspects or on the implementation process.
- The culture of the organisation – you can get a feel for the type of person who is likely to excel in the organisation.
- Projects and clients – you can go into your interview understanding the type of projects or clients the organisation works on and with.
- 1st degree connections in common – you can check if you have any former work colleagues in common. If you do, ask if they can tell you anything more about the company.
- Published blogs or articles – read any published blogs or articles written by your interviewer. It’ll give you an insight into his or her point of view on current industry trends.
- Comments – you can comment on one or two of her or his industry-related blog posts. If you make an insightful comment your interviewer may recognise your name when it comes time for your interview, but don’t overdo it.
