How to get an interview in 1 + 1 media

What is his “own man” for 1 + 1 media

Each company has its own ideas about the ideal candidate. There are such in the media holding:

“Our ideal candidate for professional vacancies, first of all, should have abilities and talent in his professional sphere. In addition, he must be able to use his talent, being hardworking, responsible, and also have the courage to constantly develop and grow, question the generally accepted, imagine and realize the impossible, and have the courage to admit mistakes. The age and gender of the candidate does not matter to us, ”says Anna Tkachenko.

The personal expectations of trainees in 1 + 1 media have the same expectations, but at the same time, there are no strict requirements for work experience.
Stages of interviews in 1 + 1 media

In 1 + 1 media, all candidates, without exception, are interviewed with the head and HR manager.

“The form of the interview depends on the specifics of the vacancy for which we are considering candidates. On average, a candidate goes through two to three stages of interviews. On “office” vacancies, as a rule, you can get by with a standard conversation with the head and HR manager, but on “creative” ones there can be additional selection stages, such as a video resume, a test or creative assignment, and an assessment center, ” says HR Director 1 + 1 media.

The most interesting selection for the internship program, where all candidates go through 3-4 stages of selection. It is clear that in the case of students, the standard written resume says little about it, since it does not have a list of roles in high-profile projects and companies. That is why we have a special selection process.

The first stage is a video summary - a short video about a person, his character, skills, motivation. It is this video that allows you to stand out in a huge number of internship applications, because we have no restrictions on its content.

The second is a group game, where a group of students under the guidance of a coach performs various tasks that allow to determine the personal and behavioral characteristics of the participants. At this stage, we look at how many people correspond to our values ​​and corporate culture, and are ready to teach the rest.

The last stage is an interview with the leader. The requirements and expectations from the interns differ for different managers, therefore, the final stage of the selection is a personal conversation with a future mentor.
About stressful interviews

Non-standard interviews justify themselves when it comes to creative professions, where the requirement from the candidate to “be stress-resistant” is not ordinary, but really important. This is confirmed by the experience of 1 + 1 media:

“Usually we do not practice stress interviews, since such interviews are not always able to reveal exactly the qualities that we are looking for in candidates. But sometimes there are exceptions, and just such an exception was the participation of candidates for the vacancy "PR specialist in promoting stars" in the internship program. That is why, going to an interview with us, you need to be prepared for anything and ready for new challenges, ”concludes Anna Tkachenko.

4 tips on how to take work on time

Why do we break deadlines Any task will take as much time as you devote to it - Parkenson's law. That's why sometimes we wonder how quickly we can do something. For the same reason, we often end up at the limit of opportunity in the last minutes of what has been allotted for several days or even weeks. The word dead-line used to mean the line around the prison, for which prisoners could not be interceded neither day nor night in fear of immediately getting a bullet. Now the deadlines are associated exclusively with work, and their failure does not threaten the execution of the entire department. But the essence remains the same: deadline - life or death for your productivity or project. Our thinking is arranged in such a way that we put as much time and money into the plan as necessary, if everything goes according to the best scenario. But obstacles are often encountered along the way, and the scope of work may increase. Then we explain the deadlines by the fact that u

How to get out of the shadow of your boss

What kind of bosses are we talking about In principle, we can also talk about such chiefs, from whose shadows it is also necessary to come out:     charismatic bosses outshining their deputy;     malicious bosses standing in the way of the career growth of a talented subordinate;     tyrants who simply say “no” to any proposal;     bosses who appropriate all the merits;     political bosses, very nice with subordinates, but not letting them grow, promoting only their career interests;     hooligan bosses who keep everyone in fear. But the situation is much more complicated when you are interdependent with the boss: the boss changes your job and takes you with you, in the disorganization of the leader, it is you who substitute your shoulder and help out when you need to talk to the leader — you are those “free ears”. Only the laurels are still given to the boss, but not a spotlight. Such a symbiosis needs to be torn. Too much of a boss’s place in life acts like a parasite o
