The thunder people of the interview examine: Tang Monk master and apprentice, who is suitable for selling?

Caricature: Liu line big and recent, Beijing some tension, this year's graduate of university, employ one the intersection of foreign capitals and advisory company. In the course of applying for, besides written examination, interview, he has also accepted strict psychological test, all topics are in English, he has spent 4 hours finishing.

Last week, China Youth Newspaper Office transferred the centre and passed Sina Web, an investigation discovery done on 1192 people, 40.3% of the people have ever accepted square psychological test of recruiting while hunting for a job, person up to 75.8% per cent thinks the foreign enterprise will usually test in recruitment using psychology.

Enter domestic talents to choose the course slowly in psychological test

When finishing Wei Miss Li, staff member of accounting firm Ma's looking for a job, once participated in the written examinations of several large-scale accounting firms, interview, "some companies really include the psychological test of the job in the written examination, I can find out at one glance what is probably wanted to examine in some questions, such as team unity and loyalty to enterprises,etc.. Most applicants will be chosen the answer that the enterprise hope, I suppose. "

In fact, many applicant will square post require to change own behavior according to recruit. In the investigation, 63.9% of the people say, will try hard during application to demonstrate that apply for the required quality of post; 26.0% of the people will try hard to show one's own strong point; 7. 9% of the people will try hard to hide one's own weakness; Meanwhile, can have 25.6% people say too " whether show oneself in an all-round way, strong point and weakness" .

" it is possible to lie in psychological test " . Founder of A Yao consulting network, Zhu NingNing of professional doctor of psychological surveying introduce, some test, such as college entrance examination or intelligence test, can not lie, but the topics of some investigation personalities, even if you do not know why it ask in this way, you can not answer according to the true idea either. That is to say, if the applicant does not cooperate, does not want to let enterprises find out about one's own true psychology, also totally possible.

The investigation reveals, if accept psychological test, 57.9% of the people express willingness to totally answer the question according to one's own true feeling, 33.5% of the people think that is hard to tell, 8. 6% of the people say that unwilling. As to the result of psychological test, 25.0% of the people do not think psychological test can measure people's essence, the people of 18.0% be able to think, person up to 57% per cent think that is " hard to tell " .

"Enterprises invest cost, time to test, it is in fact for helping the staff to be chosen the suitable position too for the staff, let the staff work under better psychological condition. This will improve enterprise's whole working performance, promote both sides of the labour and capital to get along harmoniously. " Zhu NingNing says.

Personnel director Wendy of Medical Apparatus Co., Ltd. of Johnson & Johnson says, the applicant takes strong job hunting to hope, will unavoidably demand to change one's own behavior and talk according to the recruitment of enterprises, demonstrate some tendentiousness, this is very normal. But according to long-term career, the most important one is not to find a job in a short time, but choose a most suitable job. Demonstrate in test one's own truest idea and values are the most important.

Psychological institute professor Xu Yan of Beijing Normal University thinks, the professional and academic level can prove whether the applicant is suitable for a job technically, these condition Israels are very clear. "But the personnel department faces a large number of strange applicants when recruiting, can not grasp the applicant's psychological condition within short time, the fastest method is testing using psychology. Abroad, the application of psychological test is very general. In psychological test enters domestic talents to choose slowly, this complies with the inevitable trend of international trend. Now, the employment situation is severe, enterprises will be stricter, prudenter when choosing talents, through psychological test being the enterprise's right to choose the talents that match with oneself too. "

Think NingNing Zhu,some enterprise with test question may actually for recruiting and be designed, used for recruiting improperly directly. Some test tools and relatively prevail, everybody takes back and uses, it is apt to go wrong in validity and stability of the test. If enterprises have only bought software of a set of psychological test, but not used, managed by professional personnel, then it is very apt to misapply tools, it is fair, effective to do too.

The psychology professor proposes that the professional organization operates psychological test

In the face of psychological test, the applicant's psychology presents the diversification too. In the investigation, 44.3% people think, matter 24.2% of the persons will be nervous, 24.2% of the persons feel curious, 16.6% of the people feel relaxed, 10.8% of the people will worry, 6. 9% of the people say happily, 2.6% of the people feel afraid.

Mr. Song taking office in an overseas-funded enterprise accepted psychological test too during application, "personnel department concentrate on an independent room applying for staff at that time, the person who stops question sheet exchanges with external world. " He has spent more than one hour finishing 120 questions, some questions let him think that does not know how to answer, for example there is a question: "The leader arranges a ad assignment, need team unity and could be finished, there are n members in the group, members' administrative ranks are all the same, but position and responsibility in the group differ. At work, because everybody had different views to produce the contradiction, made the work stagnate. Excuse me, you support or object to the executive, or get around a executive to report to higher authorities, or keep silent? "

And some questions, for example " where liking goes to spend holidays on weekend " Wait, is thought " reasonless humour " very by him . Later, Mr. Song exchanged with the person who applied for a job, found finally though everybody thought that answered the question seriously, honestly, but the person who lets question sheet of this set of topics is very impatient, a colleague refuses to answer the question simply.

As to this, Professor Xu Yan thinks, enterprises must rely on the help of the scientific organization while adopting the psychological test tool, if but enterprises compile the topic, or tested tools using the scientific one, it is very difficult for this kind of test to elect the talent that matched with post accurately. Introduce psychological test out of question, the key lies in the choice of the tool and explanation of the test results. The intersection of psychology and specialized technical staff could scientific operation tests tools only, and the normal procedure will make applicants accept psychological test gradually. The really specialized test tool can well prevent the person examined from lying too.

Dr. Zhu NingNing says: "A set of good psychological tests can be verified and examined repeatedly. Have many interesting to test on Internet, like prevail getting so-called recently? Wish the peaceful Yu's nice food of man of worried nice food bath of the third constellations of Ken to accumulate crack of oxime of Guo 's ant The emperor robs the jealous deer's 's mirror and imitates M 4 Ze protruding is tried best Fierce in Quan large bamboo or straw hat with a conical crown and broad brim knife Ji Sheng If you can't glitter, dry up legendary bird with poisonous feathers shelf door frame Bo Conner spoon level ground Feies protruding Hui where deceive hole persimmon like to feed to support benzyl orphan sting arm change Lang jealous of is the s difficult to be last Qiong after lasting chimneyinging after swearing to Yu shelf Shelf Liang C It wave on core Yao Ji shelf couch Mao feed to which last mus of Ao source mow Yun trade falcons rapid for the Yu shelf linden emperors pretty to keep fit bridge oves peacefuls after lasting P still! ?

If the applicant's professional skill is very outstanding, but the psychological test result is unsatisfactory, should enterprises employ such a person? In the investigation, 27.1% of the people think that should be employed, 17.0% of the people think that should be employed, 55.9% of the people say that " non- OK " .
