关键是套到manager的电话，再打给manager。

roman(异形)

和manager的开场白一定要事先准备好，并练熟（我当初是打在电脑屏幕上读了一便）。开场白要简洁，不要有客套话，在对方感到厌烦之前讲出你的专长（他所需要的），如：

My name is XXXX, I'm skilled in XXXXXXXXX, have XXX years of experience in XXXXXXXX, do you have position for person like me?

(我打的那次manager开始都每听见我叫什么，只听懂了我的专长，然后再问我的名字。所以关键是说出他想要的，manager对他主管的专业名词会特别敏感。）

如果没有机会，可以问他可否把简历发过去，以便以后要人时优先考虑。

如果manager那儿实在没有工作，可以问他是否知道有别的地方需要你这样的人,因为都是一个圈子里的人。

反正脸皮厚一些，最多被拒，不会损失什么。

good luck.

工作学习 / 事业与工作 / Tough, tough!没打之前无所谓，打了以后才觉得，只要有一个receptionist kindly enough给我留下一个contact information,我都有种受宠若惊的感觉，cold call真不是容易打的 -tongcd(不明真相的总是群众); 2003-1-10 (#967889@0)

没事，放松一些，最近大势不行，前台们也没啥事，闲着也是闲着。：） -fatboy(大胖墩儿厨); 2003-1-10 (#967894@0)

我估计A字头公司的电话都被人打烂了，从那些前台说话的口气我就能听出来。有一个我才问他能不能留个contact，他马上说我们不找software development, NEVER EVER,吓得我赶紧撂电话 -tongcd(不明真相的总是群众); 2003-1-10 (#967939@0)

But it increases your chance to land a job. For those failed contacts treat them as language practices. You will get better and better after each call. Try to find some ways to outsmart those receptionists. -1499728inc(bank); 2003-1-10 (#968054@0)

Thanks for your encouragement. When the receiptionist says they don't have openings, they really don't have it, right? in this case, I don't have to insist to have my call transfered to a technical manager, right? -tongcd(不明真相的总是群众); 2003-1-10 (#968123@0)

Not really. The manager is the one who knows whom, when they need. The key of cold call is to find that manager in charge and then contact that person directly thereafter. -1499728inc(bank); 2003-1-10 {481} (#968221@0)
At your first call, you can say: "I would like to send my resume through fax. Could you please tell me to whom should I write attention?". This is one way to get around receptionist.

Follow up call is equally important. "Hello Ms. xxx, my name is yyy, I sent my resume 2 weeks ago, just like to follow up with you to see if you've had a chance to take a look at it?"

Don't believe the receptionist. She just wants to get you off her face. The manager's word is final.

thank you very much for your clear answer. I am going to give it a try. If I felt pissed off, I would come to rolia and yell at anybody jump on my face (kidding) -tongcd(不明真相的总是群众); 2003-1-10 (#968251@0)
looks to me you know it inside out, buddy. -patpat(乃胡侃而已); 2003-1-10 (#968261@0)
It worked for me though. -1499728inc(bank); 2003-1-10 (#968272@0)

but you started up your own biz? -patpat(乃胡侃而已); 2003-1-10 (#968275@0)

? How did you know me? -1499728inc(bank); 2003-1-10 (#968292@0)

偶打cold call的时候，有个公司说他们到2004年都不可能招人，还有的公司说正在laid off，砍人要砍到christmas（那时5/6月份），有的公司说只有他一个人和一个part time的员工，不招人。@@ -henhen(哼哼,MISSing); 2003-1-10 (#968355@0)

我知道你那是去年的事，绝对不容易；我这次打很多过去直接就是voice mail，是不是那公司小得只有一个人了；另外你是不是想尽办法让receptionist转到technical manager那里？ -tongcd(不明真相的总是群众); 2003-1-10 (#968414@0)

有时人家给转到HR，有时不转，就说不要人，不过，偶打得不多，一起workshop的有一个打了600个，找到工作，不是IT的，也有打三个电话人家就要的，反正IT的人家态度特差，可能打得人多了。 -henhen(哼哼,MISSing); 2003-1-10 (#968433@0)

同感同感；态度是比较差，幸好刚来的时候没试，那时候操着那一口破英文去打还不得把我的所有自信心都打到安大略湖底去 -tongcd(不明真相的总是群众); 2003-1-10 (#968443@0)

注意啦，偶觉得你自己的态度是很重要的，别让他们影响你，真的，想想假如你处在他们的位置对无数抄一口怪腔的电话会不会不耐烦？当然会的，所以不要把别人的冷漠当根葱，想着有朝一日位置倒过来你....，这样就好了。 -henhen(哼哼,MISSing); 2003-1-10 (#968450@0)

说的是；everything needs practice；问问那位打了600个打了多久？1个月？ -tongcd(不明真相的总是群众); 2003-1-10 (#968468@0)

不止吧，大概50到六十来天，他天天是人力资源那“上班”，把找工作当full time工作的。 -henhen(哼哼,MISSing); 2003-1-10 (#968496@0)

很佩服他的勇气与耐心。 -lazycat(孤独的长跑猫); 2003-1-10 (#968509@0)
