STAR rule
During both the resume writing and interview processes, you need to describe work experience or personal experience. Excellent interviewers often use the STAR rule to establish personal events, so that the interviewer can better judge your personal abilities and potential through your past experiences.
Let’s review the four elements of the STAR Rule:
- Situation: Scene - what the scene was like at that time;
- Task: Task - what is the task at that time;
- Action: What action did I take;
- Result: What result was achieved.
Most students often directly introduce what they have done and the implementation process as soon as they come up. The organization is relatively clear and the content is quite technical. But many students easily overlook the Situation and Result parts, which are the background and results. Or you may panic easily when the interviewer asks for more details. These reasons are often due to the fact that the ins and outs of one's experience were not explained clearly before the interview and the summary was not comprehensive and in-depth enough.
The background and results are very important to the interviewer. You must provide sufficient reasons and value to convince the interviewer. Otherwise, even though you have invested enough energy in this project, it will not add points to your interview evaluation in the end. This is very serious. pity.
At this time, some students will also think: My project is just a personal/school practice project, and I can’t imagine that the project results will be very eye-catching. So at this time you might as well talk about what you learned in the project. For example, in this Webpack plug-in example, you can talk about:
- Compiler and Compilation and their differences;
- How does Webpack realize the relationship between plug-ins and ensure their orderliness?
- When developing plug-ins, you need to make the next decision based on whether the current configuration uses some other plug-in. How to determine which plug-ins are currently used by Webpack;
- In the process of developing the plug-in, I borrowed ideas from other plug-ins and my understanding of the source code of this plug-in;
- Etc., etc.
Most of the above will be encountered in the actual development of Webpack plug-ins. If you record and summarize these problems, they can also be used as results.
During the interview, if the interviewer asks you to describe a project that you are proud of, remember to follow the STAR rule when answering. For example, in order to integrate xxx business (S), I assume the role of xxx and am specifically responsible for xxx (T). Did xxx things (A), and finally produced xxx results.
Then the same is true when describing the highlights of the project, for example:
Due to project xxx reasons (S), I need to make xxx improvements (T), and then performed xxx processing (A) , and finally the xxx result was produced, and the data comparison was xxx.
Overall, it will appear that you are very thoughtful and capable of action, and can create value for the company. This is also one of the most critical indicators for interviewers to evaluate candidates.
in conclusion
Interviewer's Routines
There are basically two types of questions asked during interviews: concrete questions and open-ended questions.
Specific questions will basically be answered according to the STAR rule with reference to work experience, mainly to understand basic literacy, technical depth and potential.
Open-ended questions basically test the ability of divergent thinking and the depth and breadth in a certain field. They are basically asked in combination with technical questions or in combination with work content.
For example: n ways to implement a certain technology? The implementation principle of a certain technology? What are the advantages and disadvantages compared to what? What are your thoughts on this technology?
Responses for interviewers
1. Answer based on the actual situation. When preparing, be more divergent, think more, and summarize more. This is a bonus item that you can prepare yourself.
2. Divergent problems mainly depend on your daily accumulation. First of all, the basic knowledge must be solid, and at the same time, you must understand the latest technological trends. When faced with this kind of questions, remember not to go off topic by answering questions that are not what they are asked.
3. What are your career plans?
Answer tips: HR will ask this question generally to understand your motivation for job hunting and your thoughts on your mid- to long-term career development, and of course to confirm your career stability.
The three-step answer routine: clarify your career positioning, confirm your career goals, and break down the time points for your career goals.
4. What are your salary requirements?
Answer tips: If your salary requirements are too low, it will obviously belittle your ability; if your salary requirements are too high, it will appear that you are overweight and cannot be used by the company.
Answer sample 1: I have no strict requirements on salary. I believe that your company will handle my problem properly and reasonably. What I focus on is finding the right job opportunity, so as long as the conditions are fair, I don't care too much.
Answer sample 2: If you have to name a specific number yourself, don't say a broad range, that way you'll only get the lowest number. It's best to give a specific number to show that you have done research on today's talent market and know the value of employees with your own education.
5. What are your views on overtime?
Answer tip: In fact, many companies ask this question, which does not prove that you must work overtime, but just wants to test whether you are willing to contribute to the company.
Answer sample: If work requires me, I will work overtime without any hesitation. I am single now and have no family burden, so I can devote myself to work wholeheartedly. But at the same time, I will also improve work efficiency and reduce unnecessary overtime.
6. What should you do if you have difficulty getting along with your colleagues at work?
Answer tips: (very routine)
1. I will obey the leadership’s instructions and cooperate with my colleagues’ work.
2. I will look for the reasons within myself and carefully analyze whether my work is not done well enough to dissatisfy my boss.
3. Also check to see if you are not doing well in dealing with others. If so, I will work hard to correct it.
4. If I can't find the reason, I will find an opportunity to communicate with them, ask them to point out my shortcomings, and correct them in time if there are any problems.
5. I should always focus on the overall situation. Even if my leaders and colleagues do not understand me for a period of time, I will do my job well and learn from them humbly. I believe that they will see that I am working hard and one day I will be able to succeed. Smiling at me.
7. What difficulties do you find in this job?
Answer tips: ① It is not advisable to directly state the specific difficulties, otherwise the other party may suspect that the applicant is not good enough.
② You can try roundabout tactics and express the applicant's attitude towards difficulties - it is normal and unavoidable to encounter some difficulties at work, but as long as there is a professional team, a good spirit of cooperation and careful and adequate preparation in advance , any difficulty can be overcome.

Analysis: The main purpose of this question is also to understand the applicant's work ability, planning and organization.
Answer tips: ① If the applicant lacks sufficient understanding of the position he is applying for, it is best not to directly state the specific method of carrying out the work.

9. In addition to this company, which other companies have you applied for?
Answer tips: Strangely, this is a question that many companies ask. The purpose is to get a rough idea of the applicant's job aspirations, so this is not an absolutely negative answer. Even if it is not convenient to name the company, you should answer "Sales of the same kind" "Product company", if other companies you apply for are in different industries, it is easy for people to feel that they cannot be trusted.
10. Do you have anything else to ask?
Answer tips:
This is usually the last question before the interview is about to end, and it can greatly affect the outcome of your interview. In addition to giving you the last opportunity to showcase, this question further reflects your concerns. Is it money, platform, or something else?
