1.1 ppt preparation#
1.1.1 Personal Introduction#
- Introduce your past experiences
- Introduce what you were responsible for during your work
- Break down what you were responsible for from a larger perspective. Analyze the relationship and differences between what you were responsible for from a higher perspective and the horizontal systems. For example, you can analyze the services provided by the third-level department you are in based on the second-level department. When introducing, you can also give the judges an overall impression of the system you will talk about later.
1.1.2 Project Introduction#
what
- What is the project you want to introduce?
- What are its responsibilities and boundaries?
- What kind of business does it support?
- What was the history before it?
why
- Why is the system in this form?
- Why can business requirements be decomposed into such systems?
- Why not use other similar existing systems?
how
- If it is a new or old reconstruction, compare the new and old
- Business abstraction
- Overall architecture of the system
- Data interaction
- Solution selection (including understanding how similar systems are implemented within the company and the industry, and why we ultimately chose ours)
- System challenges
- How to ensure idempotence, consistency, robustness, and scalability
result
- Business and technical benefits after the system goes live
1.1.3 Conclusion and Outlook#
- Avoid single-point planning and try to make your plan look more comprehensive. For example:
- Add xx benefits × Build benefit center √
- Increase batch configuration function × Explore higher efficiency in terms of personnel and money √
- Clearly summarize your strengths and achievements during your work
2 Speech Preparation#
- After writing the ppt, prepare a speech manuscript by referring to the ppt. Don't worry about the speech manuscript exceeding 15 minutes at the beginning.
- Find a meeting room and continuously practice your presentation using the speech manuscript, making modifications to unclear parts.
- After memorizing the speech, time yourself to see how long the overall presentation will take and how long each module will take. Avoid spending too much time on a small module (unless that module particularly showcases a certain ability).
- Anticipate questions that the judges may ask while referring to the ppt.
3 Q&A#
- The judges listening to the defense may have no understanding of our business, so they may ask questions by comparing it to systems on their side. Therefore, it is necessary to have some understanding of similar systems.
- Many judges will ask about the relationship between the system and horizontal systems, as well as the relationship between horizontal businesses. For example: What complementary relationships exist between various systems? Why don't you use a specific system for viral growth? Therefore, it is necessary to have a more comprehensive understanding of the business and horizontal systems.
- Also consider the technical aspects and whether there are any common or abstract points that can be combined.
4 Conclusion#
In daily work, you can actually prepare for promotion in advance, such as:
- Have an overall understanding of your business: What role does my system play and what are the conflicts and complementary points with other horizontal systems?
- Understand business goals and why the business has chosen them as goals.
- Learn more about horizontal businesses and other companies in the industry. How do they achieve the same business goals through systems?
- Dig deeper into the challenges of your system, identify bottlenecks, and develop reasonable response plans.
- Accumulate documents, diagrams, etc. in your daily work.
