Can you really find a job in the "QQ group"? Beware of Traps
As the saying goes, “Birds of a feather flock together, and people flock together.” In the online world, people with the same interests and hobbies get together for a certain purpose, so "QQ groups" appear one after another. The reporter found that the "QQ group", which was originally for entertainment, is increasingly becoming a small channel for job recruitment. Some people post recruitment information in the "QQ group", while others use the "QQ group" to complete the job-hopping process. Some people call this recruitment method "circle recruitment." Due to the existence of a large amount of false information on the Internet, relevant people pointed out that there are many traps in "circle recruitment" such as "QQ groups" and job seekers should apply for recruitment through formal channels.
Industry group: QQ group job-hopping is rare
Mr. Zheng, who works in the media, established a QQ group in the "education and training industry" for the convenience of work. Over the past year, this QQ group has attracted a large number of people to join, gathering nearly 200 people from all levels of education and training institutions and becoming well-known in the education and training industry.
Recently, Mr. Zheng discovered that some people in the group began to post recruitment information and paste the recruitment notices in the "group sharing". Since everyone knows the people and institutions in the group, they are familiar with the recruitment information. They all believed it to be true.
In the QQ group, two women actually completed job-hopping. They were spotted by the boss of another organization in the group and were poached with high salaries.
Reminder: It is very rare to change jobs through QQ groups. Firstly, there are very few industry groups with trustworthy foundations. Secondly, many companies are not allowed to use QQ during work, not to mention that many bosses do not know how to use QQ at all. This is not used, so it is best to change jobs through formal channels.
Job-seeking group: more common among college graduates
Today, the most diverse group is the job-seeking group of college students. Every year during the peak period of campus job fairs, many job-seeking groups will spring up like mushrooms after a rain. Some are set up by student clubs, some are set up by classes, and even are set up by individual college students to exchange their job-hunting experiences.
When Xiaoji graduated from graduate school, he joined a job-seeking group called "Jin1Jin2". This job-seeking group was named after the school dormitory. There are some recruitment information released, and the icons are flashing all the time. Although I don’t know whether the information is true or false, I still see a lot of hope. It is understood that QQ groups have been accepted by more and more college employment guidance departments and are used to "make suggestions" for college students' employment and provide professional guidance.
Reminder: The biggest benefit of college students using QQ groups is that they can exchange job search experience and share job search information. For the information published in the group, you must distinguish between true and false. You must refer to the information published by the school's employment office. If you go to apply for a job interview, you should also be careful.
Company Group: First come first, first served
There is always something in the QQ group that will surprise you from ear to ear. Some job seekers take a different approach and decide to apply for a company. They often get the company's QQ group through various channels, and then "lurk" in the group for a period of time. After getting familiar with everyone, they then go to the company to apply for jobs.
It is reported that Wang, a student from a university in Nanjing, wants to go to a foreign-funded communications company. I pay attention to this company's recruitment information every year, "diving" in the company forum for a long time, and even inquired about the company's internal QQ group. After three years, Wang actually made friends with many people in this company, and eventually Enter the company.
Reminder: Job seekers who "lurk" in the company's internal QQ group are not only unpopular, but can also easily arouse the resentment of company colleagues. It is best not to try this kind of "taking the wrong approach", lest you "lose your wife and lose your troops".
White-collar groups: Beware of scams with attractive names
Reporters found that with the increasing number of QQ groups, there are also some groups with the names "gold-collar", "white-collar" and "blue-collar". " is the group labeled.
Taking "white-collar" as an example, there are dozens of groups that can be searched, including "Guangzhou White-collar Dating Heroes Club", "Guangzhou White-collar Happy Park", "Guangzhou White-collar Blue Collar Gray Collar", "Guangzhou White-collar Paradise", etc.
Since the "white-collar group" is a mixed bag, it is inevitable that some people with ulterior motives will use this name to deceive or blackmail members of the group. The reporter once joined a "white-collar" group, and the group owner held some parties.
Later, some group members posted in the "group space" to expose the group leader's extortion behavior. It turned out that the group leader did not bring any money to every activity, and borrowed 200 yuan from the group members when he was about to check out. The group members Because of the bad reputation, everyone couldn't bear it anymore and gathered together to expose the group leader. Eventually, the group disbanded.
Reminder: The white-collar group is the most unreliable. There are often no white-collar people in the "white-collar group". Job seekers must not take it seriously when seeing recruitment information in such groups. When participating in such group gatherings, you must also pay attention to personal and property safety and beware of being deceived.
hr group:
Say hello to colleagues when there is a shortage of people
Not only job seekers like to get together to exchange job information, HR also likes to join different types of " "Human Resources Group", especially the QQ groups set up by some mainstream institutions. This newspaper’s job search plaza has opened several industry HR groups. Among them, the “Real Estate Industry HR Group”, HRs from major real estate companies like to say hello to their peers in the group when one or two people are temporarily vacant. See if there are any talent reserves that you can recommend. Group members also share various difficult problems faced by HR in their work.
Reminder: Every HR belongs to a different company, and every company hopes to recruit the best talents. Therefore, in the HR group, good talents will not recommend each other, and ordinary talents would rather be placed in the reserve talent pool and will not be shown to others.
Reporter’s Notes:
Be wary of recruitment traps in virtual space
QQ groups have broadened people’s scope of communication. In this virtual space, many things are not restricted. , and there is no supervision. Whether the recruitment information in the QQ group is true or false is really unclear.
Most of the people who use QQ group when applying for jobs are college students. First, because college students have active minds and have many thoughts and experiences that they want to share with others for their first job search; second, they have a practical foundation and can set up groups at various levels such as classes, majors, schools, societies, etc., and repost information from the employment offices of various universities. information.
But the QQ group is just a tool. To achieve high-quality employment, you need to improve your competitiveness and be wary of various recruitment traps. ;
