Since I am studying a professional master’s degree, according to the requirements of the school when I entered in 2019, the schooling period is 2.5 years, 2019.9-2022.3, so the timetable for job hunting is somewhat different from that of the 3-year students, that is, we only have the autumn semester starting around June 2021. Recruitment, there are very few opportunities for spring recruitment in March 2022, and the time coincides with graduation, so it may not be in time.
My supervisor has relatively loose requirements for me, and I need to find the direction of the graduation thesis by myself. At that time, I arranged to do an internship first and then write the thesis . From September 2020 to July 2021, I was doing an internship at Station B (I took 4 months off in the middle and came back to write the opening report). As a result, I have been preparing papers from July 2021 to November 2021. I have no time to concentrate on preparing for autumn recruitment, and I have missed the golden age of Internet job hunting for autumn recruitment.
After I finished writing my thesis and passed the blind review, the autumn recruitment of major Internet companies has basically come to an end, and there are very few opportunities. In addition, the internship department gave me an offer, so I only tried some state-owned enterprises, public institutions and foreign companies.
State-owned enterprises and institutions
I did not adopt the Haitou strategy, but made choices based on the characteristics of the company and I mainly delivered some securities and financial companies. The positions recruited by these companies are mainly C++. There is no Go position that I am personally familiar with. I have to study 计算机专业specially 上海市金融城市定位Basic knowledge of C++. Fortunately, during the interview, comprehensive technical knowledge is examined, and C++ knowledge points only account for about 30%. Take some books and the summary on GitHub to get started quickly and prepare for the interview.
The interview process of state-owned enterprises and public institutions is relatively uniform and fixed, basically:
To submit personal data and resume on a certain page, you need to fill in a lot of basic information such as name, place of origin, ID number, etc., which can be specially organized, copy and paste to save time
Line test + psychological test, to examine the individual's basic logical ability, mental health, stress tolerance, etc.
If the process 2 is passed, there will be a telephone interview. This step will really start to examine the technical knowledge. The chat will last about 30-60 minutes. Usually it will be self-introduction and some basic technical knowledge. own understanding
If process 3 is passed, it will be an on-site interview. This step is usually conducted by multiple interviewers. These interviewers include the recruited team leader (leader after joining the job), department heads, and some big bosses at the company level. They will inspect the individual's comprehensive ability together and decide whether to hire
At this point, it is HR communication offer,
国企事业单位相对稳定，不会裁员，招聘薪资是固定的it is difficult to argue
In the end, I received offers from 4 state-owned enterprises, and the monthly salary was more than 1W, plus the year-end bonus, the annual pre-tax was about 25W. As for whether there are some invisible benefits, I asked many people and they said no. The advantage of state-owned enterprises is that they are stable, do not lay off employees, and can provide employees with a long-term career development expectation, so that employees can devote themselves to work and develop themselves with confidence, but some will also work overtime, depending on the situation.
Foreign companies
The competition from foreign companies is really fierce! ! !
In 2021, layoffs and introversion will prevail, and many fresh graduates will start to focus on 重视员工发展和福利foreign companies 工作强度低于互联网that are not yet available. 综合待遇不低Companies such as Microsoft, ARM, AMD, Intel, and Morgan Stanley Information Technology have a lot of people delivering, which intensifies the competition for autumn recruits.
I tried to deliver to several foreign companies by myself, but my English is weak. I did not perform well in self-introduction in the interview, and basically failed by phone. There are too many voters like Microsoft, and even if you pass the written test, it is difficult to get interview places and opportunities.
Later, through a friend’s referral, I got a supplementary interview opportunity from a foreign company, but it was a pity that I was given cabbage in the end, which made me very entangled. Finally, after communicating with my good friend SH and the counselor, I decided to go to the Internet company for my internship. However, about a month later, the HR of this foreign company contacted me again and matched me with a higher salary. Although it is still not as high as the Internet, it is already the highest they can give. After thinking about it, I still declined. After all, the three parties had signed the contract and the house was about to be rented, 换offer需要时间和信用成本，太麻烦了so I didn't consider it.
However, if you choose a foreign company, you may not only care about salary. Instead, use it as a springboard to strive for future development in foreign technology companies and expand your horizons and experience.
The interview at a foreign company probably goes something like this:
submit resume
written examination
1-2 rounds of re-examination
HR sends offer
Now there are a lot of people investing in foreign companies, the best and most efficient way is to refer internally , and it must be referred early. If the internal referral is late, everyone will start to refer internally, and the competition will become fierce again.
offer selection
The choice of offer should be made in combination with one's own economic foundation, salary and treatment, and personal development planning. If you have a partner, you should also take your partner into consideration. For example, many fresh graduates from Shanghai are more inclined to choose state-owned and foreign companies with relatively easy and stable jobs. If the economic foundation is average, the salary should be given higher weight . If the other conditions are similar, choose the one with the highest salary.
As my counselor told me:
You are a boy, you will have a lot of burdens in the future, you still need to earn more money
My friend SH also told me:
Now you think it’s good for foreign companies to lie flat. When you have a wife and children and need money for a lot of expenses, you will know how important it is to make money
If there is not much support from the family, it is quite difficult for me to settle down in Shanghai. After I realized this, I changed my mind: first work hard to make money and improve myself, and if I can’t stay in Shanghai in the end, I should at least make some money and leave .
The above is my autumn move and the change of my final thoughts. It is for your reference only. If any readers have their own ideas, please leave a message to discuss together.

There is a small partner in the Byte AI Lab. There is a shortage of people there recently, and social recruitment internships are required. The internship requires more than 6 months. He is a machine learning training platform. Recently, there is a high chance of admission
State-owned enterprises and institutions
The recruitment information of such enterprises is often very scattered, and there is no centralized place to display it. For example, the public account Guozi Xiaoxin will have some social recruitment information of state-owned enterprises. For school recruitment information, you can follow the official public accounts of some universities, such as:
Summarize
To clarify the goal of postgraduate study, whether to do research or development, if you choose the latter, it is best to go out for an internship early
The graduation requirements for a master's degree are very important. The sooner you complete them, the better, and you will have enough time to do what you like
Autumn recruitment is serious, and the recruitment time has started to move forward. It basically started in June of that year. You still need to prepare as soon as possible to find a job.
Job hunting is based on students' comprehensive ability. Even if there is no internship, you can find a good job if you work steadily. I know two classmates. Because the instructor does not allow internships, they review carefully at the end. The autumn recruits both got SP and above positions.
