Chapter 8 Getting to Work



It was a new day, and the alarm went off at 7:50. Wang Yitong went downstairs for breakfast before heading back to the office. Manager He had already started arranging for veteran employees to mentor the new hires, teaching them how to find and communicate with clients.

Wang Yitong began studying with Wen Fang. Later, she learned that Wen Fang, three years her senior, had left school after her sophomore year of high school and gone out to work. This was Wen Fang's first job, and she had been there for over two years. Wen Fang, a very enthusiastic mentor, explained how she typically obtained contact information for her boss and HR department. She also explained how she communicated effectively. The company had basic communication skills, and the rest was just a matter of practice.

After the second week, the newcomers have already started to have their own official workstations, which are rearranged next to the corresponding master's workstations. In this way, if the newcomers encounter problems, they can seek help from the master in time.

Wang Yitong gradually became familiar with the work routine. She searched for recruiters on websites like 58.com, Ganji.com, 51job.com, and Zhaopin.com. She used Excel to record the phone numbers of companies she contacted, so she could clearly track the progress of her contacts. She also color-coded potential clients.

Wang Yitong's master has already opened 5 orders this month, and Yitong has also started to make progress. Two companies are willing to try one recruitment advertisement, but it is just a trial and no money will be charged. Moreover, the recruitment advertisement will be placed in the gap.

At this time, her master Wen Fang encouraged her that it was a good start. She could use these trial customers to practice, communicate more often, and the results would naturally come.

Wang Yitong felt the working atmosphere among colleagues was quite good, but the constant phone calls every day made her feel irritated, especially the rejections she received on the phone. This left her with a psychological scar. Every time she hung up, she had to muster up the courage to call again.

Fortunately, Wang Yitong will adjust and come again. She herself is a person who gets nervous easily, but fortunately she is not on field work, and she can still overcome her nervousness by communicating by phone and QQ.

A week later, Supervisor He arranged for Wang Yitong, Wen Fang and two other colleagues to be on duty on Saturday to distribute newspapers at the talent market. Of course, they would also hire people to distribute newspapers at fixed locations, such as newspaper stops, subway entrances with heavy traffic, and talent markets.

Wen Fang also told Wang Yitong that when there is a job fair, the company will send employees to the scene to help distribute newspapers. This is also an opportunity to get to know the employer, and employees from the field department will all go there.

On her way home from work, Wang Yitong told Chen Dong and Ah Huang about her trip to the job market this weekend to help out. Chen Dong suggested that Yitong print out a box of business cards and give them to the recruiting companies. She also gave them a job posting and told them to look at it and contact her if they had a chance.

After dinner, Chen Dong took Wang Yitong to the printing shop where they usually printed business cards. "Fortunately, today is Thursday. We can get it tomorrow and use it on the weekend," said Wang Yitong.

"I'll take your business card back for you after get off work tomorrow. Don't hesitate to hand your newspaper and business card to the employer over the weekend. Generally speaking, the newspaper company won't refuse. After all, it's a win-win situation. As long as you're not afraid and have a thick skin, clients will naturally come to you."

After listening to Chen Dong's speech, Wang Yitong felt a little timid. She wondered how other colleagues at the company were doing, what the job market was like, and whether she could make it with so many people. When she was working part-time as a flyer distributor, most people turned her down. She often had to motivate herself, believing that only by distributing flyers could she earn money.

On Saturday, Wang Yitong and Wen Fang met at the company at 7:20 before heading to the job market. Two colleagues were waiting for them near the job market, and the newspaper distribution staff arrived at 7:00. It was already 8:00 when Wang Yitong and Wen Fang arrived. After meeting with the other two colleagues, Supervisor He arranged for everyone to distribute recruitment notices in different areas of the street to job seekers arriving at the venue. They also needed to identify those attending the job fair. The notices were distributed around 10:00, and everyone could go to the job fair at about the same time. They gathered again at 11:30.

Wang Yitong and Wen Fang were on the left side of the street, a few meters apart. Wang Yitong first watched how Wen Fang distributed newspapers to others. After observing for a few minutes, she also started handing newspapers to others.

"Handsome, come and pick up the job posting. There are a lot of legitimate companies hiring on it. Take it and see if there are any suitable jobs."

"Beautiful lady, come here and get a job advertisement so you can find a job sooner."

......

Soon, around 9 a.m., a steady stream of people began arriving at the job market, most carrying bags or resumes. Without much ado, Wang Yitong handed them to passersby, quickly saying, "Recruitment papers, it's easy to find a job." Sometimes, she simply handed them to the recipient without even introducing them.

As the crowds slowly thinned, Yitong carefully observed the nearby shops. She noticed a printing shop that was quite busy, likely filled with people who needed to print out resumes first. She walked to the door and handed out resumes to everyone who arrived. Most of them put their resumes away, while others took them and began to check for suitable positions.

After talking too much in the morning, Wang Yitong took a break and went to the store to buy two bottles of mineral water. She walked over to Wen Fang and handed the water to her, "Sister Fang, here's a bottle of water for you. Take a break. You've worked hard this morning."

Wen Fang took the water and started drinking. "Yesterday, the two colleagues said that in order to avoid conflicts, they will go to the job fair on the first and third floors after 10 o'clock, and I will start from the second floor. Do you have a business card? If you don't have one, you can use mine and go to the second floor with me."
