Singles Day falls on every November 11th, and as the name indicates, this relatively new holiday is one exclusively for people who are still living the single life. I was a bit surprised when I googled Singles Day on the Internet, to find that China is the only country in the world that has set aside a special day for singles to celebrate their lives. To find out more about this celebration, read on.

Origin of Singles Day 节日起源

Betting 打牌

An old story goes that once there were four single men, leading very boring lives. None of them were married, or had lovers, or did anything exciting. They just sat around all day and played Mahjong.

One day they played Mahjong from 11 in the morning until 11 at night. During the game, no matter who won, the winning card was always the four columns card (the card shows four independent, parallel columns in two lines). Even more of a coincidence, it was Nov 11, or 11/11. In order to commemorate the day, they nicknamed it Singles Day.

故事从四个过着单调生活的单身汉说起。他们没有人结婚，连女朋友都没有，日子过得无精打采，终日打麻将度过。

有一天他们打麻将从早上11点打到了晚上11点。奇妙的是，不管谁赢，都赢在了“四条”上。更加巧合的是，这一天正是11月11号。为了纪念这一天，他们给它命名为“光棍节”。

导读：自我介绍是每一个职场中人都必然要经历的一件事情，只不过，有的人一年用不上几次，而有的人则一个星期可能需要做N次。众所周知，自我介绍是日常工作中与陌生人建立关系、打开局面的一种非常重要的手段，因此，让自己通过自我介绍或得到对方的认识甚至认可，一种非常重要的职场技术。

个人单独面试基本上都是从开场问候开始，开场问候很重要，它有可能决定整个面试的基调，求职自我介绍。开场问候是给面试考官的第一印象，从言谈举止到穿着打扮将直接影响到你被录取的机会。进门应该面带微笑，但不要谄媚。话不要多，称呼一声“老师好”就足够，声音要足够洪亮，底气要足，语速自然，总之彬彬有礼而大方得体，不要过分殷勤，也不要拘谨或过分谦让。

接下来就是面试自我介绍；面试中一般都会要求考生先做简单的自我介绍，自我介绍的时间一般为2-3分钟左右。自我介绍是很好的表现机会，应把握以下几个要点：首先，要突出个人的优点和特长，并要有相当的可信度。特别是具有实际管理经验的要突出自己在管理方面的优势，最好是通过自己做过什么项目这样的方式来验证一下；其次，要展示个性，使个人形象鲜明，可以适当引用别人的言论，如老师、朋友等的评论来支持自己的描述；第三，不可夸张，坚持以事实说话，少用虚词、感叹词之类；最后，要符合常规，介绍的内容和层次应合理、有序地展开。最后，要符合逻辑，介绍时应层次分明、重点突出，使自己的优势很自然地逐步显露，不要一上来就急于罗列自己的优点。

有一个笔试分很低，并且只有4年工作经验的考生被录取，其中一份6易其稿的个人介绍底稿起了关键的作用，因为在将近25分钟的面试时间里，面试老师的提问都是围绕着您个人介绍以及基于这个介绍制作的一个ppt图进行的。现整理该底稿如下，仅供大家参考：

《自我介绍的概要》

各位老师好，我叫邓小群，1998年毕业于哈尔滨工业大学，同年分配到北京工作，现在就职一家外企亿书堂公司市场部部门经理。

(下面我想从两个方面介绍一下我自己。)

工作业绩：

1：1998年7月分配到北京*****公司重点实验室；

1999年4月作为首席代表组建并运作上海办事处，一年就为公司实现了***万销售业绩，自我介绍《求职自我介绍》。

2：XX年5月加入******公司，在市场部任商务经理，带领sales人员，推动中小企业的网站建设。

3：XX年元月份，加盟美资企业亿书堂科技发展有限公司，任职市场部部门经理，主要负责培养销售团队，带领我的客户经理人及销售人员推广我们的软件系统。

其中最大的成绩：

在亿书堂公司，作为市场部部门经理，带领客户经理，面对包括北大方正等竞争对手，最终将我们的软件系统与惠普、康柏、恒基伟业四大随身电脑硬件平台捆绑成功！使我们的软件成为该行业的一种标准！

(实例：去年华纳与联想fm365合并后，由于我们的成功，他们希望收购我们公司，为此我们还专门给联想总裁柳传志做了一场融资报告，其中的产品竞争对手分析以及未来市场预测两部分就是我负责的！)

个人的几个特点：

在个人求职自我介绍中有几点值得读者来探讨体会的：

是你需要深造还是你值得名校录取？

自我介绍必须非常简洁地回答清楚这样一个问题“我需要得到来名校来深造的机会，同时我也值得北大选择我”。很多同学的介绍里都急切地表明无论从哪个方面讲都到了急需充电，急需到最高学府深造，往往都忽略了前面这个问题。记得在参加265-269分段第一次面试时，王教授就曾直接问过我：“你们都需要到北大来，可是北大今年只有260个招生名额，能否谈谈北大为什么要选择你，你有哪些工作业绩，有哪些潜质？”北大的招生原则就是宁缺勿滥，北大希望录取的考生是全国最具有管理潜质的青年。所以介绍的核心是你值得学校录取，而不是你需要深造！

重在个人经历介绍还是个人品质和能力？

在写自我介绍前，要静下心来想一想，自己这些年的所有发生的事情，从十年寒窗到每一年的工作经历，自己到底拥有哪些优秀的品质，哪些事情反映了这些品质；在本章第一节的自我分析一定要当作一个重要的事情去做。

自我介绍要用事实说话，切忌使用含糊的字眼，要知道主考老师都是有很强的辨别能力，比如：你的第一学位学校在很大程度上反映你学习新知识的能力，你在很短的时间内被提拔为部门经理在很大程度上反映你工作方面的能力。所以在写自我介绍时候要用个人的经历来证明自己的品质和能力！

露出马脚还是流下伏笔？

作为考官都有很强的鉴别能力，对你面试中的表现出的不严密的地方，能够很快感觉到，从而进一步提问，很多考生就乱了阵脚。漏洞更多。其实自我介绍对突出业绩的介绍要精炼，要点到为止，必要的时候要为主考官设置一些案例伏笔，引起主考官对你进行提问，然后你才将早已准备的内容娓娓道来。

Sakura is the Japanese name for ornamental cherry trees, Prunus serrulata, and their blossoms. Cherry fruit (known as sakuranbo) come from a different species of tree.

Sakura, a well-known and ubiquitous symbol of Japan, are represented on all manner of consumer goods, including kimono, stationery, and dishware. Cherry blossoms are an enduring metaphor for the ephemeral nature of life, and as such are frequently depicted in art. There is at least one popular folk song, originally meant for the shakuhachi (bamboo flute), titled "Sakura", as well as a number of pop songs. "Sakura" is also a common Japanese female name.

Sakura is indigenous to the Himalayas and east Asia. Some trees can be found in China and Korea but the largest number and variety of sakura, more than 305 species, can be seen in Japan. Many of them were artificially hybridized or grafted by the Japanese many centuries ago.

"On the other hand, in China, cherry blossom is the symbol of feminine dominance, female beauty and sexuality. Additionally, the cherry blossom is the Chinese symbol of feminine principle and it also symbolizes love in the language of herbs. Interestingly, cherry blossom is the flower of the April in China, whereas in Japan, it is wisteria." Spring flowers of Japan

Japans most beloved variety is the Somei Yoshino. Its flowers are nearly pure white, tinged with the palest pink, especially near the stem. The flowers bloom, and usually fall within a week, before the leaves come out. Therefore, the trees look nearly white from top to bottom. The variety takes its name from the village of Somei (now part of Toshima in Tokyo). It was developed in the mid- to late-19th century at the end of the Edo period and the beginning of the Meiji period. The Somei Yoshino is so widely associated with cherry blossoms that jidaigeki and other works of fiction often depict the variety in the Edo period or earlier; such depictions are anachronisms.

Other categories include yamazakura, yaezakura, and shidarezakura. The yaezakura have large flowers, thick with rich pink petals. The shidarezakura, or weeping cherry, has branches that fall like those of a weeping willow, bearing cascades of pink flowers.

Annually, the Japanese Meteorological Agency and general public track the sakura zensen, or Cherry-Blossom Front. Nightly forecasts follow the weather segment of news programs. The blossoming begins in Okinawa in January, and typically reaches Kyoto and Tokyo at the end of March or the beginning of April. Then it proceeds north, arriving in Hokkaidō a few weeks later. Japanese pay close attention to these forecasts. They will go to parks, shrines and temples with family and friends and hold a "flower viewing party" known as hanami. Hanami festivals celebrate the beauty of sakura, and for many, it is a chance to relax and enjoy the beautiful view. Hanami custom in Japan dates back to many centuries ago. It is witten in Nihon Shoki that the Hanami festival were already held in the 3rd century.

Most Japanese schools and public buildings have sakura trees outside of them. Since the fiscal and school year both begin in April, in many parts of Honshū, the first day of work or school will coincide with the cherry blossom season.
