Chapter 3050 Campus Recruitment Has a Halo, Social Recruitment Must Be Downgraded

After talking for so long, Zhou Buqi finally understood the core theory of He Yang's outsourcing.

Ziweixing is developing too fast and employs too many people.

Ziweixing needs a group of core backbone forces with the most potential and development space, as the mainstay of the company's long-term development. This backbone force must come from campus recruitment and from people trained by the company itself.

However, the requirements for campus recruitment are too high, and we cannot recruit too many people in a short period of time.

  How to do?

This requires social recruitment to fill the labor gap.

However, people who are recruited from society have been working in the society for many years and may have been infected with bad habits in other companies, or they have become old hands in the workplace. Just like divorced women, they lack loyalty and a sense of belonging to their new family.

Therefore, this group of people recruited from society should be killed with one blow.

Ziweixing wants to keep all key projects and key development opportunities for its own people and for campus recruits.

However, if the work performance of a social recruit is equally good as that of a campus recruit, why should the campus recruit always be given the opportunity instead of the social recruit? Or, how can we avoid the campus recruit who lacks work experience and simply wants to get promoted by ability being bullied by experienced social recruits?

Therefore, a system should be designed in advance to "downgrade" the status of the social recruitment group and turn them into outsourced ones.

It's logically self-consistent.

Especially in recent years, Zhou Buqi has met many successful people and has increasingly discovered a truth, that is, the awesome people have already started to be awesome a long time ago.

If a young person fails to become a celebrity during school, and even fails to meet Ziweixing's standards when applying for a job and joins as a campus recruit, then his future achievements will most likely not be comparable to those of his classmates who joined Ziweixing as a campus recruit.

He Yang said: "I have concluded that among the current technology giants, without discussing crooked ways, only five types of people have the opportunity to rise step by step to the senior management level. First, people in the entrepreneurial team; second, industry leaders who were hired at a high price; third, people who were recommended by others; fourth, campus recruits; and fifth, social recruits under very special circumstances."

"Social recruitment with special circumstances?" Zhou Buqi was very curious, "What does this mean?"

He Yang smiled and said, "Recruitment is a two-way choice after all. Some people did not join Ziweixing during the campus recruitment stage. It may not be because Ziweixing did not like them, but because they did not like Ziweixing. They may have gone out to start their own business, or went to the United States to study for a doctorate, or went to the United States to work and join Google or Amazon. This is a very special group. Even if they are social recruits, they are different from ordinary social recruits. This kind of people will never do outsourcing."

This makes sense. Zhou Buqi nodded and said, "I thought about it and found that the current executives of Ziweixing are really the types you mentioned. There is really no one who started as an ordinary social recruitment position and then rose step by step to the executive level."

He Yang said: "Yes, there are statistics. I counted all the people who have been promoted to management positions above M3 or above or T9 in the company in the past five years. The largest group is campus recruits, which is the fastest growing and fastest improving group. On the contrary, it is really difficult for the social recruitment group in the early years to move up, and they have the highest turnover rate. This is not my choice, this is an objective display given by the data."

Hearing this, Zhou Buqi immediately felt sympathy for the outsourced girl named Xiang Shuwen.

She graduated from Nankai University's Department of Computer Science.

He can be said to be a child of destiny.

After graduation, she joined Qunar.com, which is not a super first-tier company, but at least a first-tier company and a listed company. She joined the company as a campus recruit. If she could be more mature and grow steadily there, she would definitely have more development opportunities.

However, many young people are not clear about the rules of the workplace and easily give up their status as fresh college graduates, and casually give up the halo of "campus recruits" which can give them great extra points in the eyes of the company's HR.

The workplace has a tolerance for campus recruitment.

It doesn't matter if you have poor skills, unstable personality, lack of experience, low emotional intelligence... The company cares about your potential and can spend half a year or even a year to train you, but will not care too much about how much value you can create in the short term. Without the halo of campus recruitment, it will be reduced to social recruitment, and that's it.

The requirements for social recruitment are extremely high. Companies are not interested in training social recruits. The requirement for social recruitment is "plug and play". Once you are recruited, you have to create value for the company. There is no tolerance. If you cannot create the expected value during the three-month probation period, then goodbye.

Xiang Shuwen is really a typical example. "I'm here to clean up the workplace, I'm going to fire the capitalists." It seems very satisfying and satisfying, but in fact, she is the one who suffers. A student from a prestigious university can only be outsourced.

He Yang said seriously, "My plan is that in the next three years, Ziweixing will complete this transformation in human resources, and achieve a 1:1 ratio between regular employees and outsourced employees. The composition of regular employees will mainly be campus recruits, supplemented by the other four categories. We will maximize the restrictions on social recruitment positions and push social recruitment positions to outsourcing. To put it bluntly, in extremely rare special cases, we will gradually give up social recruitment and turn social recruitment into outsourcing."

Zhou Buqi said: "The five types of people you mentioned, which are mainly recruited from campus, cannot complete all the work. We also need a large number of social recruits to meet the labor demand."

He Yang said: "In Ziweixing, employee performance scores are mainly divided into three categories. 30% are excellent, 60% are qualified, and the remaining 10% are unqualified and may face elimination. The data can also reflect that even among the five categories of people I mentioned, there are many who perform mediocrely in the workplace, and some even fall into the unqualified zone. Not to mention those socially recruited employees, the elimination rate is extremely high. Such a high elimination rate is not good for our company's image."

"what?"

Zhou Buqi was slightly startled.

He Yang said: "When Ziweixing has 4 employees, there may be 4000 people eliminated every year. How huge is this number? If it gets out that Ziweixing has laid off 4000 people, it will be a huge turmoil and even cause stock price fluctuations. Not to mention the huge cost of layoffs. Outsourcing is different. They are not employees of Ziweixing. Among the 4000 people laid off, there may be 3500 outsourced employees. They are not employees of Ziweixing. After the layoffs, they will return to the outsourcing company. This will not be counted as Ziweixing's layoffs. The actual layoffs of Ziweixing are only 500 people."

"That's it..."

Zhou Buqi now had a new perspective.

  Why is it that the more I listen, the more I feel what others say makes sense?

Is this how He Yang convinced the entire senior management team?

Ziweixing is a super giant. When a company like this lays off employees, it must be very careful. Because this not only affects oneself, but also affects the industry. Once the market finds that large companies like Ziweixing are laying off employees on a large scale, there may be a chain reaction.

Outsourcing makes sense.

Of the 4000 layoffs, 3500 actually just left Ziweixing and were returned to the outsourcing company, which does not count as layoffs. Even if the outsourcing company did not arrange another outsourcing job for them and laid them off, it was the outsourcing company's layoffs and had nothing to do with Ziweixing.

Ziweixing only laid off 500 people.

For a large company with tens of thousands of employees, laying off a few hundred people a year is nothing.

Ziweixing can not only free itself from labor disputes and huge layoff costs, but also stabilize the hearts of people inside and outside the company.

Zhou Buqi asked: "If we don't consider the last-place elimination, in the long run, can we gradually replace social recruitment with campus recruitment? Let the company be full of campus recruitment employees."

"It's difficult." He Yang shook his head. "Our campus recruitment standards are very high. The annual campus recruitment scale for technical positions is no more than 3000 people. However, the company conducts about 10% of the last-place elimination every year. This means that as long as the total number of employees of Ziweixing exceeds 3, the new recruits recruited from campus will not be able to fill the employment gap caused by the last-place elimination. We will definitely need social recruitment, which requires... outsourcing."

Zhou Buqi said unhappily: "Who told you that social recruitment must be outsourced?"

He Yang was so thirsty when he spoke, but he didn't expect the boss to still disagree. "If you want to prevent big company disease, you must take some strong measures. The development speed of domestic technology companies is much faster than that of technology companies in other countries. The existence of outsourcing does play a big role."

"Okay, I'll think about it." Zhou Buqi waved his hand and checked the time. "It's time for the meeting, right? Let's go to the meeting room. In my opinion, don't struggle anymore. If Secret Circle wants to be closed, then close it. If Weibo wants to be rectified, then rectify it. Now even Twitter is controlling speech, let alone Weibo."

The main recruitment model of today's major Internet companies is based on "campus recruitment + outsourcing", and social recruitment has basically been suspended.
