With the repeated epidemics, the unemployment rate in Hong Kong has dropped slightly, but it is still at a high level of 6.4%, making it difficult for graduates to find jobs.

3 The Hong Kong Trainee Executive Program (Management Trainee, MT) has recently started recruiting. Hutchison Telecommunications Hong Kong Holdings Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer Gu Xinghui said that the program received more than 1,000 applications last year. In four rounds of screening, 30 were selected. People join the program, "target local ginger, one of the social responsibilities, local graduates hire a job, it is the support of local companies." He revealed that one of the questions in the interview session is "real people", and candidates need to choose their own team members to "get out." , Emphasized that the focus is not on the answer, but on the response of the job applicant. Therefore, some interviewees who are "stuck away" can "resurrect themselves" and are shortlisted to work in the company.

Gu Xinghui hopes that the management will become younger and younger in the long run, and "the future will be the world of young people."

Candidates need to go through four rounds of screening

Gu Xinghui contacted 9 universities to promote the MT plan last year, and the response was overwhelming. He received more than a thousand applications, which exceeded expectations.

He emphasized that the company has no preset quota limit. After four rounds of screening, 30 of them came to the fore. They started working in July last year. The planned maintenance period is one year. The new round of recruitment has begun before the new round of planning.

He said that in the first half of the program, graduates need to take turns to experience in different departments, and will be in different departments; MT staff will participate in the "Mentorship & Reverse Mentorship" program, in addition to being assigned to a mentor, they will also transfer Come over and serve as a mentor for a senior employee.

In the second half of the year, I will concentrate on a job internship to deepen the work experience and knowledge.

Seeing that the plan is effective, I decided to continue the recruitment plan next year, hoping to find suitable talents.

During the interview, Gu Xinghui said that he would pay special attention to the personality of job applicants, including whether they have team spirit and ability to respond immediately.

The actual test reaction of the self-selected group members out of the game

During the interview, Gu Xinghui said that he would pay special attention to the personality of job applicants, including whether they have team spirit, immediate response ability, etc., and revealed that the group interview had asked questions, and each job applicant had to pick out one person (kick out). Everyone’s reaction is also very different. "Some people frankly say that they choose themselves, some people will use a more tactful way to express it nicely, and some people are more harsh."

Gu emphasized that the key point does not care about who is selected out. "It depends on their reaction, especially when they are selected to be kicked away by the team members." Some of the interviewees who were "taken away" were still shortlisted to work in the company.

Gu Xinghui said that the target of the MT program is local students and emphasized that one of the company's social responsibilities is to support local graduates to find jobs.

He pointed out that the trainees hired last year included students from different backgrounds, such as business, liberal arts, and engineering. "Target local ginger, one of the social responsibilities, local graduates to work, is related to the support of local enterprises. Second, if you go all the way. Living in Hong Kong, he must be familiar with the Hong Kong market," which will help promote the company's business.

When asked about the starting salary point, Gu did not disclose the actual amount, only that it would not be lower than the market level. He emphasized that the company does not only attract talents by salary, but experience and training. It is believed that young people should be balanced when they first join the society. "If you have the first job, you have to get the highest number of people in Hong Kong. In fact, it is not practical, and it is not the most needed."

However, he emphasized that it is not a certain age group, but the whole should be average. "Technology is changing fast. , Is to serve the future, and the future is the world of young people, so their needs and interpretation have a certain weight." The group does not see a crisis of layoffs in the short term.
