????備用方案事實上就是失敗方案。擁有方案B，雷伯曼表示，“等于是告訴自己，你追求夢想的努力可能會失敗，絕對不應該有這樣的想法。全力以赴，你就會得到自己想要的東西?！?/p> ????得到夢想工作要比其他工作更容易。為什么？因為你對它充滿了激情。雷伯曼稱：“雖然我申請其他競爭不那么激烈的職位都沒有成功，但我年紀輕輕就在NBA獲得了一份管理工作，其中一個原因就是我非常想要這份NBA的工作。”這看上去可能有違直覺，但他相信“人擁有更高目標時，成功的可能性更大?！?/p> ????獲得夢想工作的最好辦法不是找工作，而是找人。很多職位空缺都不會打廣告，而是通過人脈關系和推薦就找到了合適的人。雷伯曼指出，擠入“‘隱形就業市場’的唯一辦法就是結識希望進入行業的業內人士，和他們多談談。”就你的情況而言，為什么不從實習時認識的人開始？ ????人脈不等于“所有認識的人”。雷伯曼認為這是傳統觀念欠缺的地方?！叭嗣}其實是喜歡你、看好你的人，”他解釋道?！霸诎涯阃扑]給其他人或給你提供某個機會前，聯絡人會自覺或不自覺地考慮：‘我看好這個人嗎？把他/她介紹給我的圈子會不會毀了我的名聲？’” ????“如果答案是否定的，這樣的人脈毫無幫助。如果答案是肯定的，你往往就能贏得任何人的推薦?！边@也是另一個原因，為什么對你來說，聰明的做法是從那些認可你實習表現的人開始，從你們老師可能掌握的業內聯系人開始。 ????追求夢想工作的兩點建議：第一，沒有什么工作是完美的，我們的預期不能脫離現實。雷伯曼說：“從來沒有哪份工作永遠精彩紛呈，沒有沮喪，沒有不足?！?/p> ????第二，他說：“不要給自己太大壓力”。如果你最終進入電影圈后發現這和你想象的不一樣，“要記住，一份工作并不等于無期徒刑。隨時可以換個方向。其實，，大多數人一生中都會多次換工作，甚至完全轉變職業方向?！?/p> ????祝你好運。 ????反饋：你畢業后是如何得到第一份工作的？今天你還在這個行業里做嗎？或者你后來改變了職業道路？請在下面留言。 ????譯者：老榆木 |
????A back-up plan is actually a plan for failure. By having a Plan B, Leibman says, "you're telling yourself you might not succeed at your real search, which is exactly what you shouldn't be thinking. Hold nothing back, and you will get what you want." ????It's easier to get your dream job than most other jobs. Why? Because you're genuinely passionate about it. "One reason I got a front-office job in the NBA at such a young age, while being turned down for other openings where there was less competition, is because of how badly I wanted that NBA job," Leibman says. Counterintuitive as it may seem, he believes that "you're more likely to succeed when you aim high." ????The best way to get the job you want is to stop looking for jobs and look for people. Because so many openings are never advertised anywhere, and are filled through personal contacts and recommendations, "the only way to crack the 'hidden job market' is to talk to people working in the industry where you want to get hired," Leibman notes. In your case, why not start with the people you already know from your past internships? ????Networking is not "all about who you know." This is one point where Leibman says the conventional wisdom falls short. "Networking is really about who likes you and who respects you," he explains. "Before referring you to someone else or letting you in on an opportunity, a contact is consciously or unconsciously deciding, 'Do I like and respect this person enough to put my reputation on the line by introducing him or her to my inner circle?' ????"If the answer is no, networking will get you nowhere. However, if the answer is yes, you can usually get almost anyone to open his Rolodex." This is yet another reason why you'd be wise to begin your search with people who liked your work at the companies where you interned, and the industry contacts your professors may have. ????Two more thoughts about pursuing a dream job: First, nothing is perfect, so keep your expectations in line with reality. "No job will ever be exciting and free from frustrations and drawbacks 100% of the time," Leibman notes. ????And second, he adds, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself." If you end up working in the movie business and at some point decide that it isn't what you hoped, "remember, a job is not a life sentence. You can change directions at any time -- and in fact, most people change jobs, and even careers, a number of times throughout their lives." ????Good luck. ????Talkback: How did you get your first job out of school? Was it in the same field where you work now, or did you later change direction? Leave a comment below. |
