Tencent recruited more than a month, there is a mixed picture bitter astringent, there are all sorts of unexpected in the meantime have expected it, tasting carefully drew much charm.
After graduating three years of work experience, whether technical or industry focus direction are very different. I remember at school recruit interview was technical director of Peak Youku asked me a very classic question: What are your career planning?
This is a almost every candidate in the interview process will not ask the question, but clearly and adhere to their own development path, not many people. Try to remember my answer, very fortunate to date has not deviated from.
I use three to five times as much exposure to different technical direction, widening knowledge and skills stack, during which the size of the company worth mentioning Ye Hao product types are secondary. Then after this technical field to select a vertical deep down, luck may also encounter their favorite industry direction.
I always think in the future must be rooted before now, career planning the same. Technology practitioner if you want to choose which areas deserve a lifetime investment, there must be a broad technical vision and a wealth of technical precipitation. My people stupid, so we need more time.
Fortunately, in the first five years of the technology I'm sure the field to join the two values: the first is a serverless; the second is a graphical programming for large data. Then both directions as the goal, I was fortunate to get Ali and Tencent together to put aside the olive branch.
Select is a very difficult thing, especially attractive to quite a second election. After some struggle eventually rejected the pay slightly higher Ali.
In fact, now that age and stage, you want to select more than just a talking to subsistence living, but in order to pay for life-long career. Salary naturally no longer a measure of the core elements of a job.
There are two selection Tencent reasons: The first is the development of Tencent cloud TCB team of the industry (not just domestic) Infrequent based peer serverless solution. This is enough to take the lead courage appealing; the second is due to the start-up team, and what to do in fact the industry has not completely serverless unified, so there is much room for development. Tencent has added more than a month I was fully aware of the opportunities and challenges in the business environment.
Special is that the team in Shenzhen, and I could not in the past because of family reasons in the short term can only be a temporary office in Beijing. In fact, because his wife had not thought asthma was transferred to the southern city of good air, but after all, this is a family affair, Moreover, there is a car Gouzi house. The final old Zhou Board of Directors agreed to stay out of the transitional period in the past year or so before Shenzhen, the fall of next year at the latest to move on.
This remote work before the candidates had been communicating with the team, for the team tolerance really surprised, after all, I have never experienced this kind of work mode.
But still some underestimated the difficulty of working remotely, although people of this age are accustomed to online communication (Two neighbors next to my brother stations have never spoken face to face, are meeting Tencent online chat ...), but some things still better to talk face to face. And the work is not only the feelings between the work itself, is also an important part of my colleagues, and online communication is no temperature.
I know this work mode must make some changes, you can not wait for others to send mission, must have a strong self-driven and dominant. Can not be too dependent on the help of the team, a person is a team.
In this regard, I would have been quite confident in Sogou promote reconstruction subway map and floor, webgl engine from data preparation to develop, although the final but unfortunately not on the line during the process is still very rewarding.
Tencent different.
There has been able to promote the technology in large part because people do not want to do this thankless thing in search dogs, as long as the stick must be very successful.
Tencent's team are top talent, especially in this innovative business never short of good ideas and landing capability.
A great challenge. The mode of teleworking further enhance the difficulty.
This past month, in addition to two and a half years of training new employees is easy, other times, whether working days or holidays, are highly nervous tension. Before joining Tencent, this state only in 2013 just to participate in the initial work I had an internship.
However, this sense of urgency but also I feel a bit excited, I'm glad I still had faced such a challenge at this stage. Come on, little (old) partner (home) sub (partner)!
The yard did not take care of the flowers for a long time, there are a few slices of dead leaves fall to the ground, yet the late autumn, is a water shortage.
