Failed interview, employee went home and called the manager, 30 days later the manager called him to work
An interview can be a turning point in one's life. For many people who have just entered the society looking for a job, a good platform with a high starting point is much more developed than an ordinary job in the future. In the past, people often asked me, should I get a job first and then choose a job, or should I choose a job first and then get a job? For this problem, if you can afford to wait and your personal ability is good, of course, it is recommended to choose a job before getting a job. Many people's first job is very ordinary, and the life trajectory after that is on the ordinary road for a lifetime.

A friend who is a HR director in a large company shared such a story with me. He has interviewed countless job applicants, but only one really impressed him, not because of his outstanding talent, but because of his attitude towards work and people, which made him very satisfied.
My friend was working for a listed company with thousands of employees. For a period of time, the company vacated two senior designer positions. The salary of this position is not bad, with an annual salary of more than 200,000. One day, the company received a resume. The information on the resume was a 30-year-old, average-looking, ordinary university graduate, who once worked as a design supervisor in a small design company, with an annual salary of 100,000.

Originally, the company was not very interested in such a very ordinary resume. However, this job seeker was very persevering and sent resumes several times in succession. In the end, he didn't know where to know the manager's phone number, so he called the manager directly and said, "Because of the situation at home, I really hope to be given a chance for an interview, even if I don't pass. Not resentful either. With a very sincere tone and a humble attitude, the manager finally agreed to give him a chance.
At that time, the company screened 40 job applicants for interviews from hundreds of resumes, and there were only 2 vacancies in total, and the competition was fierce. There were a total of 3 rounds of interviews. The young man performed well and entered the last 10. At that time, the director interviewed. Compared with the other 9 job applicants, the young man had almost no advantage, and in the end, as expected by the manager, he failed the interview and was eliminated. At that time, the young man smiled and said goodbye to the director and manager sincerely after hearing that he was eliminated, thanking them for their invitation.

After returning home, the young man specially sent a text message like this to all the interviewers who interviewed him: Thank you very much for giving me the opportunity to interview, spending a lot of material and manpower. Although I failed in the interview, I have learned a lot and know my own shortcomings. If I have the opportunity, I will try my best to improve myself and serve your company again. Thank you! It was a simple thank you text, but almost everyone who interviewed him left an impression on him. Because after each interview, he would send such a text message, which made them feel respected and moved.
After this interview, less than 30 days later, another designer of the company left the company due to physical reasons. When the manager and the director discussed candidates, they did not expect this young man to be the first thing that came to mind. So the manager called directly to ask if the young man had found a job, and if not, he was welcome to come to the company. The young man was surprised when he heard it, and agreed very happily.
Conclusion: My friend said at the end that this young man was one of the few job seekers who could be truly sincere during the recruitment process, and then sent a text message to express his gratitude afterwards. Most people just pick up their stuff and walk away after failing an interview without even a single thank you.
