On New Year’s Eve, the recruitment platform is lit up.
What kind of people are still thinking about finding a job on New Year’s Eve? It sounds very “roll”.
It is impossible to work part-Time, and the most common way to survive is to work. If there is a day in the year when you can not work openly, it must be New Year’s Eve. After all, it’s the “big New Year’s Eve”.
So we wonder what kind of mood people have when they log on to the recruitment platform on New Year’s Eve? What is their situation and where do they want to go? We talked to some people who are still active in the recruitment platform on New Year’s Eve. We tried to find the answers to the questions from them.
Some of them failed in their examinations and hope to find the future direction of their lives through the black and white offers in their mailboxes; some finally made up their minds to leave the North and the West and leave their careers, not letting go of any opportunity; some failed in their business ventures and are planning to start all over again. There are also active recruiters, some of whom regard 365 days as working days, racing against time in the name of growth and war.
We find that it is a question of the relationship between work and Life, and also a question of the relationship between a mortal body and eternal time.
Work is a bridge between human and society, and a means for many people to realize their value in life. Sometimes it means a car, a house, a ticket, sometimes it means a smile of peace of mind for the Family, and sometimes it simply means a sense of existence and value of being born as a human being.
The recruitment platform that was lit up on New Year’s Eve, some people will interpret it as the helplessness of playing workers inside the volume, while others will interpret it as the self-expectation of always being online. The interplay of views, the objective pressure of work and the anti-chicken-Soup self-deprecation of the “working man” are all reflections of our real life, and these seemingly contradictory opposites are combined in a spiral. These seemingly contradictory opposites spiral together to form the ATCG (DNA sequence) of our social life.
Recruiters offer a job to young people, workers engage in a mundane occupation, deliver a takeaway, shout “peanuts and mineral water” on the train day in and day out. …… These may not be any great Dreams or feats.
But I think, whether out of love, vanity, or survival instincts, each ordinary person in the name of work to make a little effort, always make the human race a little better, make the world a little better.
The following are their stories.
The most disdainful classmates took the big factory offer, and my salary jumped lower and lower

That kind of mood is like waiting for someone to give you the number plate of love. Whether it’s New Year’s Eve or 3:00 in the middle of the night, when I see the message, I will open it in seconds and return it.
What’s better than that situation is that I can be the “King of the Sea”: try to communicate with more bosses, HR, headhunters, the probability of receiving a reply will be much higher.
If you don’t count the New Year, I changed 3 jobs in 2020. 1.
The last one was a quarrel with the boss, and I resigned a week before the regularization period. At the beginning of the year, the main thing to do is more boring than expected.
The savings in hand will last until the end of March, and there are a lot of fixed expenses for rent and pets. There was not much time left for me.
My school was very, very mediocre. When I graduated, my offer was in the upper middle of our class, an Internet medium factory, which was successfully listed shortly after I left. At that time, those who could go to the Internet were in the minority, and many students went to do insurance sales.
A communication reached on New Year’s Eve (Source: Interviewee)
Three years after graduation, people were going uphill, only I was going downhill.
There was a person in my class who liked to talk badly about B to A and badly about A to B when I was in school. The point is, A and B are good friends. When doing a project, he said “I’m great” when the teacher praised him, and when he criticized him, he said “I said this is not good”.
I was particularly annoyed with this person, and now he has entered BAT, I changed from a company of 1000 people to a company of a dozen people, and finally was laid off.
This incident had a big impact on me, and I was definitely not convinced. I really think he is like him, why can find a job? Or do I need to become such a person in order to enter the BAT, all the way to promotion and salary?
Recently received some phone interviews one after another, some interviewers are very good, talk about this matter will be from their point of view to explain to me this matter, such as things may not be what I thought, big companies also have blind spots and so on.
More importantly, I received some advice, such as staying longer in the next job, accepting the boring part of the job, learning “upward management” and so on.
These can partially relieve my anxiety, because in the end, I feel that this is also a free opportunity to meet people.
I think everyone in the workplace is thinking about how to get promoted and how to do business. I, on the other hand, have been following my feelings. The cost is actually a bit tragic. Looking back, I realized that the lower the salary jump, it is better to stay in the first company.
Anyway, I hope to find a job where I can sink my teeth into soon in the New Year, wish me well.
My mother lost her phone and blamed herself I think it’s time to go Home
Job Seeker
Rui Liu is 36 years old and has 11 years of experience in data operation in Internet companies.
The boss returned to me on New Year’s Eve, so I rushed to talk to him.
If I can get a few interviews before I go back on vacation, I’m not so embarrassed when I change jobs.
Prospects, career these things are naturally rational, and often emotional when making decisions, as I arrived home to start preparing for a job.
I am in a TO B service company doing data operations, a year income of about 300,000-400,000, in these cities in the north, in Guangzhou, in the Internet company is not high. More overtime, limited upward mobility, and no future in sight.
The first two years I considered whether to go home to take the civil service forget, dragged to the age does not meet the application criteria, but also has not turned over the application tutorials.
The night before going home, my mother called and said she lost her phone, she was very upset and kept chattering repeatedly, “How can I forget my phone there? The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of how much money you have.
I took her home to buy a new phone, but she was still struggling with how she could have forgotten something so important.
At that moment, I suddenly realized that she was not upset about losing a $3,000 phone, but about being old.
Mom is the kind of woman who is very strong. When I was young, I said that my aunt’s roast pork next door was delicious, so she practiced roasting it for a month. I rarely eat roast pork now either.
I am 36 years old and she is 59. My grandmother passed away at the age of 64. My mother has been in good health, but the time to see and be with her is getting less and less as time goes on.
I started to update my resume in the evening and decided to go back to my hometown to work.
I thought about one question: If I didn’t spend more time with my Parents and didn’t insist on doing this job, which would I regret more after 10 years? The answer is the former.

There are more Internet-related jobs than I thought, although many of them are BD (business development) and sales posts, but they are far more than I expected.
In our city, the most mainstream jobs are still teachers, doctors, banks, career and civil servants.
The positions on the platform can’t be said to be purely counterpart, but they are not a little bit stronger than going directly to traditional companies.
I burned up my savings in 2021 and want to start all over again.

Li Lei is 30 years old and has been working in key account sales for 10 years.
Last New Year’s Eve, I was also on BOSS, and my identity was still the boss at that time.
In 2017, I went on a trip with my friends and played a secret room together, which I found particularly interesting. At that time, secret rooms were more common in big cities, but the market in our small city was almost blank.
At that time, my job was not as good as I wanted it to be, I was working in a local catering company as a key account sales, although the performance was good, but because I did not deal with the boss, I always had the idea of leaving.
After returning from a trip, a few people together, we invest together, I am in charge of the operation and operation. So the first escape room in our city was opened. I didn’t expect to step on the so-called windfall, the store has not finished renovating, the first weekends of the opening was basically booked up.
I made a lot of money throughout 2018 and 2019, and I ended up sharing it all according to the percentage of shares I had at the beginning. Others were working part-time and I was working full-time, and there was still an imbalance in my heart.
In the middle of 2019, I sold my house, plus my previous savings, bought all the shares of several small shareholders, and used the remaining money to invest in new stores.
Chinese New Year is the peak season of our industry, worried about people taking time off then, before the year has been recruiting people, New Year’s Eve also did not stop.
The first half of 2020 was basically no income, the remaining partners did not even want to invest the money directly out, the new store can only surrender the rent, the renovation was all wasted. I always felt that I would be fine after this wave, so I borrowed another sum of money from my parents to pay the rent.
In January 2021, the first store was officially closed.
I went back to work as a laborer.
The brother who lent me the money knew my situation and didn’t press me for New Year’s Eve. There are people who ask me if I have money for New Year’s Eve. I don’t think too much about New Year’s Eve, now I just want to find the right job as soon as possible, as long as the money is right, marketing, sales-related posts I may join as soon as possible.
I am now the overall state of mind and state are okay, not a song lyrics are “if the heart in the dream is in, there is true love between heaven and earth, see success or failure life is heroic, just start over again “.
Race against time, there are still people onboarding on New Year’s Eve
Recruiter
Ding Rong 27 years old city development manager for 5 years
I am on the platform to recruit people.
After starting this business, there is no concept of Saturday or holiday. As planned, I have to pick up a new colleague on New Year’s Eve.
Yes, we are doing the legendary community group buying.
The Spring Festival in small cities starts in January. The sound of firecrackers scattered in the middle of the night, the incense, wax, paper and candle stalls set up outside the couple’s store, the brand new Spring Festival couplets on the door, the lanterns hanging on the street, the long queue at the entrance of the fried goods store, all of these are constantly reminding you that it’s New Year’s Eve.
New Year’s means more people need to buy fruit and vegetable fresh, household goods, supermarkets are a lot of people, considering the convenience, cheap, safe perspective, will be willing to try community group purchase, once a year war opportunity can not be delayed.
So for me and many colleagues, New Year’s Eve is more like a “special” working day, with extra meals in the evening.
The work content in addition to communication arrangements suppliers, partners, and is constantly recruiting, recruiting, recruiting.
The biggest threshold of community group buying business is actually the scale, the scale up, the supply chain costs will fall, will also force the supply chain to accelerate the upgrade.
So in fact, from the beginning to the end, we compete with the competition is to open the city speed. Maybe today you are still the first in the province, sleep up the rival has exceeded you.
With “race against time” to describe, is not too much.
Empty time will generally go to brush BOSS direct recruitment, to see if there is a suitable person. Individuals rarely consider 985, 211 these bright background, generally like to recruit local hard-working, smart young people.
My principle is to recruit their own people with their own, to help the horse, send a ride. One day when I leave, he can continue to repair the walls and do maintenance in the local area.
The main reason is that I don’t think I’ll be doing community group buying for the rest of my life, and this job still has objective requirements for physical energy.
At that time, when I came to be a city development manager, I mainly considered two points.
First, the community group purchase may be the biggest business change in China in recent years, e-commerce was born Ali in the supply of iron army, takeaway war was born Meituan ground push, community group purchase may also come out of a “xx topper “.
This experience plus the name of the big factory, the future resume will be worth a lot of money.
Second, I personally like to use the number of supermarket fresh categories as a measure of the degree of retail development in the region, if every county in China, people can eat affordable Chilean Cheerios, Shandong cabbage, or a cool thing.
During the Epidemic, many of our colleagues were on the front lines of solving the Food supply problems of the residents. Although I wasn’t in those areas, I felt especially proud.
I usually talk about these ideas with people who apply for jobs, and I also introduce the work environment and working hours, which are practical. Sincerity is the best way to communicate, and digesting 996 these things is part of what this job is about. In the end, they make their own choice.
Say a little more, I’ll go to work.
