Foreword:Unknowingly, the 2023 autumn recruitment has ended. The author was lucky enough to get dozens of offers that were pretty much the same in the autumn recruitment, including: Top-level AIGC, industrial control Leaders, domestic MCU original manufacturers, medical equipment, new energy vehicle companies, etc. All in all, I am very satisfied with the overall situation of the autumn recruitment. Of course, the salary may be a little lacking. Considering the economic downturn and the special situation of salary cuts and layoffs in all walks of life, the author himself can understand it! At the request of fans in the group, I wrote a post summarizing the autumn recruitment and learning route planning!
1. Embedded engineer school recruitment experience
1.1 The author has something to say
[Disclaimer]The author is currently just a student. There may be great subjectivity in such general and instructive blog posts! I hope all readers will view this blog dialectically!
To be honest, the current employment pressure for embedded engineers is very high. Major training institutions are crazy about the popularity of the embedded industry, causing a large number of people to pour into the embedded industry, causing the industry to quickly become saturated and involuted! In the past, the educational threshold for embedded engineers was very low, and from the author's point of view, it was very unprofessional. But now in slightly better companies, embedded engineers must have good academic qualifications and schools (985, 211, QS100, etc.).
The depth and breadth of industry technology are also increasing. I vaguely remember that when I was an undergraduate, I could play 51 microcontrollers and get exposed to STM32, and I could find a good job. Now, Qiuzhao, your situation is completely inadequate! Therefore, if you want to stand out in the autumn recruitment, you can only use your own skills and experience!
1.2 Resume for autumn recruitment
Resumes are very important as a stepping stone to employment opportunities. An excellent resume needs to be continuously optimized (dozens of times). The author optimized his resume 16 times in total during the autumn recruitment process, and even customized several resumes for his favorite companies! Spending a lot of time to create a resume that suits you is very important and worth it!
Recommended resume composition: (1) Personal information (2) Educational background (3) Professional skills (4) Project experience (5) Certificates and honors
1.2.1 Personal information
In fact, the most important thing about personal information is to leave yourpersonal contact informationThis is very important. Secondly, a>Personally, it is recommended to delete your birthplace. Many HRs are particularly concerned about whether the birthplace matches. If it does not match, they may be passed directly! ! ! For personal information, the author's starting point is that the simpler the better, especially for private companies, it is OK to provide age and contact information! ! !
1.2.2 Educational background
Educational background is also the academic qualification threshold. Those who have excellent grades during school can also write down their grade point ranking! ! !
1.2.3 Professional skills
Professional skills are the point at which HR and interviewers can quickly identify whether you are suitable for the job. They are also skills that you will most likely need to use when working. For this point, you can go to major recruitment apps to check the job requirements and fill them in based on your actual situation!
[BOSS Direct Recruitment] lists the recruitment skill requirements of famous companies. Readers and friends can also learn specifically from companies when learning skills. Find out what the recruitment needs are, and learn what you want. In this way, you will basically not be unemployed after graduation! Of course, in addition to the basic skills threshold for a good company, academic qualifications and life experience are also very important assessment points! ! !
【Professional skills routine】
1.2.4 Project experience
As a position in the hardware industry, embedded engineers are very demanding of project experience. Many companies now hope that fresh graduates can start working as soon as they join the job, so project experience is very important! The author's personal suggestion is to "use competition as a substitute for training". Gaining project experience through e-competition is the most cost-effective solution for students. Of course, if you are unable to participate in the competition due to various factors, you can try to reproduce some embedded projects online as project experience!

1.2.5 Certificates and Honors
Certificates and honors are generally what HR pays more attention to on resumes, especially competitions with high gold content, such as: ACM, CCF, Huawei Cup, National Digital Analog Competition and US Competition, Undergraduate Electrical Competition, etc.!
The above are the awards for electronic competitions and digital simulation competitions in the study career (watermarked to prevent misappropriation by unscrupulous people), among which there is a water competition There are also some competitions that I personally feel are pretty valuable!
National College English Level 4 and 6 (IELTS and TOEFL), National Computer Ranking Examination (Language Level 2, Embedded System Design Level 3, Embedded Engineer Level 4), Computer Software Test, etc. can be included in your resume. have to! Certificates are always Han Xin’s encouragement, the more the merrier!
1.3 Interview skills for autumn recruitment
1.3.1 Self-introduction
1.3.2 Technical eight-part essay
Here we directly recommend the author’s interviews:http://t.csdnimg.cn/Hym4F
1.3.3 Comprehensive aspect of HR
There are too many uncertain factors in the comprehensive aspect of HR. This matter depends more on personal qualities and temporary decision-making, so I won’t go into details here!
2. Learning route planning
2.1 Basic learning
[Elementary stage]Professional knowledge: digital electronics, analog electronics, C language, circuits; learn various types of sensors and complete small demo programming;
[Intermediate stage] Take the common STM32 as an example to learn various communication protocols and peripherals; choose an RTOS to learn, such as: FreeRTOS, UCOS-II, RT- Thread;
[Advanced stage]Learn Linux drivers and Linux applications, learn Qt, and learn deep learning deployment and lightweighting;
2.2 Advanced Advancement
The above basic learning is the conventional route for embedded engineers. In fact, there are many branches of embedded engineers,such as: electrical control engineers, embedded AI engineers, Internet of Things engineers (IOT), Android engineers, etc.;
3. Final words of blog
3.1 Fan base
Embedded technology exchange group (1): 958820627 (may be full); Embedded technology exchange group (2): 876919359; Welcome to join the group, if you have any questions, you can ask in the group Share technical exchanges (you will basically answer if you see it), and there will be many large manufacturers recommending codes or internal quotas for autumn recruitment and spring recruitment. Hope everyone can discuss technical knowledge in a friendly manner! ! !
3.2 Feelings
Don’t you hear that time is like a galloping horse, the sun and the moon are like falling flowers and flowing water, and the former Kong Yiji finally needs to take off his long robe! In the blink of an eye, the author has been engaged in embedded technology for 6 years. In these 6 years, he has gained a lot, but also lost a lot, and his youth has been missed! I hope that latecomers can persevere and strive on the front line of embedded and open source. The future generations will be formidable! If the spring breeze takes pity on the flowers, can you allow me to be young again?
