Hard work will prepare you for the opportunities that may come along. Have
you heard of a saying “the harder you work, the luckier you get”? Many
people who are complaining about NO opportunities are simply not prepared.
They are just not able to walk through the door of opportunity when it
swings open.

Some on this board always complain that they are just not lucky enough to
get the jobs.
You just need to get prepared when opportunities come.
I passed CPA one year before my graduation, that put my resume on top of
everyone else.
When I interviewed with big 4 on campus, the partners just said WOW! Then we
just talked about very casual stuffs after my self introduction. No any
other tough interview questions. |

发帖数: 184 | 25 I am baffled by your comments. Not sure what is your point...for the first
job I got, it was exactly what I studied for. I got the offers because I
was the best candidate they could find for those jobs. Where did you get
the idea that I was interviewed by HR? In my opinion, HR never has the
final say in which candidates to hire. They sometimes do the first round
weed out to make sure the real hiring managers are not wasting their time.
If HR interviews are later in the game, those are usua

发帖数: 184 | 30 Yeah, that's what I did. I used my "industry" experience to differentiate
myself from other candidates. However, it is getting increasingly difficult
as very often I found myself competing with others with 25+ years of
experience in a field heavily dominated by Americans. In contrast, I have a
total of 9 years working experience...and that's ALL my working experience
combined from different careers!

发帖数: 1089 | 31 O I C. I misunderstood you in your previous post and thought your current
position had nothing to do with your engineering background. You made a
successful switch. It seems to me that your current job requires very high
level of communication skills which come down to language and personality.
Good luck on that. You can beat it!
