In the book "From Ullage to," it tells many small stories, implying the value of "one dollar." If you cherish all these "one dollar" opportunities, the value you will have in society and the market in the future will be immeasurable. This book will provide powerful help for countless fresh graduates to improve their job-hunting skills. Graduates with solid foundational knowledge and proficient job-hunting skills will be favored by thousands of renowned domestic and foreign enterprises that "51job" (Chengxu Wuyou) recruits.
The first step in job hunting is of paramount importance to one's career, and it cannot be overstated. In reality, this crucial first step requires early preparation. More preparation earlier, including skills, mindset, planning, and operational details. Most job seekers, especially students, are not well-prepared before entering the workforce. They do not know how to leverage their strengths, nor do they understand the criteria and preferences of hiring managers in talent selection. Let alone having a clear understanding of the industry they are entering, job hunting becomes a search for a specific job position rather than the starting point of an entire career.
This book innovatively combines perspectives from three different angles—hiring managers, mentors, and successful job seekers—through the analysis of vivid job-hunting cases. It integrates insights from all three parties—the position provider, the talent recruiter, and the job seeker—offering readers comprehensive and best advice throughout the job-hunting process. The first step in job hunting will not determine the success or failure of your entire career, but it will set the tone for it. If you enter the workforce in an industry you are adaptable to and enjoy, and in a company with influence, you will receive ample training, and your first job will provide excellent opportunities for your future development. Job hunting is an art, and most job seekers are not well-prepared before entering the workforce. They do not know how to leverage their strengths, nor do they understand how hiring managers select talent. This book provides best advice from multiple perspectives (the perspective of hiring managers, mentors, and successful job seekers) to guide you through the job-hunting process.
Written by Xu Guoqing, an expert in campus recruitment, and Li Guozhong, Director of the Student Employment Guidance Service Center at Peking University, this work is detailed, rich, authoritative, and compiled from the hiring managers of globally renowned companies, famous university employment counseling institutions, and first-hand real-life job-hunting cases of students. It offers multi-dimensional guidance from personal positioning analysis, preparing resumes and materials in both Chinese and English, tackling written exams, interviews, follow-ups after interviews, to the final decision on job offers. This book is the last training for students and the first textbook for entering society.
Details are the devil. Typically, how students handle details determines their victory or defeat at the recruitment checkpoint. The book presents practical techniques, but behind every trivial detail lies the way of a professional. Upon careful reflection, the essence is profound, making it a powerful tool for success in all endeavors.

This is the first job-hunting guide tailored specifically for college graduates, featuring 25 hiring managers from renowned domestic and foreign companies sharing their experiences, guidance from famous university employment counseling institutions, and compelling case studies showcasing the successes and failures of job seekers. It is detailed, rich, and authoritative.
