找工作面试为什么过不去
演讲者:Regina Hartley
Your company launches a search for an open position. The applications start rolling in, and the qualified candidates are identified. Now the choosing begins. Person A: Ivy League, 4.0, flawless resume, great recommendations. All the right stuff. Person B: state school, fair amount of job hopping, and odd jobs like cashier and singing waitress. But remember -- both are qualified. So I ask you: who are you going to pick
你的公司发布了一个公开招聘的职位。申请表开始滚滚而来,合格的候选人已被挑选出来。现在开始挑选。候选人A:常春藤盟校,绩点4.0,完美的履历,出色的推荐信。所有好的要素都具备。候选人B:公立学校毕业,碾转于各种工作之间,甚至包括做收银员和唱歌的效劳生。不过请记得;; 两位都是符合要求的。所以,我要问问你们:你们会选择哪一位
My colleagues and I created very official terms to describe two distinct categories of candidates. We call A &the Silver Spoon,& the one who clearly had advantages and was destined for success. And we call B &the Scrapper,& the one who had to fight against tremendous odds to get to the same point. You just heard a human resources director refer to people as Silver Spoons and Scrappers --
我和我的同事创造了一些非常正式的术语,来描述这两个不同类别的候选人。我们把 A 称为〞;含着金钥匙(直译为‘银汤匙’)的人〞;,一个明显具有优势,而且注定会成功的人。我们把 B 称为〞;拳击手〞;,必须努力冲破重重难关才能实现同样的目标。你们刚刚听到了一个人力资源总监将应聘者比作 银汤匙和拳击手;;
which is not exactly politically correct and sounds a bit judgmental. But before my human resources certification gets revoked --let me explain.
这听起来在政治上不太正确,而且还有些武断。但在我的人力资源证书被撤消前;;让我来解释一下。
A resume tells a story. And over the years, I've learned something about people whose experiences read like a patchwork quilt, that makes me stop and fully consider them before tossing their resumes away. A series of odd jobs may indicate inconsistency, lack of focus, unpredictability. Or it may signal a committed struggle against obstacles. At the very least, the Scrapper deserves an interview.
一份简历讲述了一个故事。过去的那些年,我了解到那些经历好似拼布床单的人,会让我在把他们的简历扔掉前会停下来认真地考虑一下他们。一系列杂乱的工作可能意味着易变,不专心,难以捉摸。或者,它可能标志着努力挣扎跨越障碍。至少,〞;拳击手〞;应该得到一次面试时机。
To be clear, I don't hold anything against the Silver Spoon; getting into and graduating from an elite university takes a lot of hard work and sacrifice. But if your whole life has been engineered toward success,how will you handle the tough times One person I hired felt that because he attended an elite university,there were certain assignments that were beneath him, like temporarily doing manual labor to better understand an operation. Eventually, he quit. But on the flip side, what happens when your whole life is destined for failure and you actually succeed
不过我要强调一下,我并不排斥〞;银汤匙〞;;能够被精英大学录取并顺利毕业,同样需要付出很多心血和牺牲。但是,如果你的一生都被设计为走向成功,你要如何应对困难的时刻呢一位我曾经雇用过的人认为,因为他毕业于精英大学,某些类型的工作对他而言是低下的,比方短时间从事体力劳动以更好地了解公司运作。最终,他离开了。但是,另一方面,如果你的人生注定失败,而你却成功了,这是怎么回事呢
I want to urge you to interview the Scrapper. I know a lot about this because I am a Scrapper. Before I was born, my father was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, and he couldn't hold a job in spite of his brilliance. Our lives were one part &Cuckoo's Nest,& one part &Awakenings& and one part &A Beautiful Mind.&
我会建议你去面试〞;拳击手〞;。我很了解这些, 因为我自己就是一个〞;拳击手〞;。 在我出生之前, 我的父亲就被诊断为精神分裂症, 他无法继续工作 尽管他很有才华。 我们的生活就像〞;飞越疯人院〞;, “;无语问苍天〞;, 和〞;美丽心灵〞;的合集。
I'm the fourth of five children raised by a single mother in a rough neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. We never owned a home, a car, a washing machine, and for most of my childhood, we didn't even have a telephone. So I was highly motivated to understand the relationship between business success and Scrappers, because my life could easily have turned out very differently. As I met successful business people and read profiles of high-powered leaders, I noticed some commonality.
我是一位单身母亲五个孩子中的第四个,我们在纽约布鲁克林一个混乱的街区生活。我们从未拥有过一个家,一辆车,或是一个洗衣机,在我童年的大局部时间,我们甚至没有一部 。因此我有很强的意愿去理解生意场的成功和〞;拳击手〞;的关联,因为我的人生很容易就会开展出不同的结局。我见过成功的商人,也阅读过具备出色领导能力的人的资料,我发现了其中的一些共性。
Many of them had experienced early hardships, anywhere from poverty, abandonment, death of a parent while young, to learning disabilities, alcoholism and violence. The conventional thinking has been that trauma leads to distress, and there's been a lot of focus on the resulting dysfunction. But during studies of dysfunction, data revealed an unexpected insight: that even the worst circumstances can result in growth and transformation. A remarkable and counterintuitive phenomenon has been discovered, which scientists call Post Traumatic Growth.
他们中的很多人经历过早年的困顿,可能是贫穷,被抛弃,亲人的早逝, 也可能是学习障碍,酗酒和暴力。传统的思维认为创伤会导致痛苦,而且还重点强调了失败的结果。但在我研究这些不成功的案例期间,得到的数据却揭示了一个出乎意料的结论:即便是最糟的境遇也能导致成长和转变。一个显著但有悖常理的现象已经被发现了,科学家们称之为〞;创后成长〞;。
In one study designed to measure the effects of adversity on children at risk, among a subset of 698 childrenwho experienced the most severe and extreme conditions, fully one-third grew up to lead healthy, successful and productive lives. In spite of everything and against tremendous odds, they succee
