Chapter 1 Chapter 1 Corporate Animal Interview
"Is that all?"
Lu Kuo quickly flipped through the stack of resumes in his hand, and a hint of urgency and impatience inadvertently revealed in his words.
In the end, it was the HR manager who took the blame: "Yes..."
Facing the boss's commanding gaze, the manager gritted his teeth and explained, "Director Lu, we've been announcing our external recruitment for a week now, and we've called every major headhunting firm. The resumes of almost all the country's top talent are here... Why don't you just tell me directly: what kind of talent do you need? What kind of work do we want to do?"
Parasol is a well-known biopharmaceutical company with a long history and strong strength. It has the support of many governments and its influence is unfathomable.
——But just a week ago, Mr. Lu, who was originally in charge in the United States, suddenly came back with several senior executives as if his butt was on fire, and at the same time issued an order to recruit people at all costs.
Sun Umbrella is well-known for its generous treatment, and this time the treatment is particularly generous. High salary, insurance, holiday benefits are just a small amount. Director Lu directly said that those who work for a full year can get dividends from the company and become one of the shareholders.
As soon as this condition came out, top talents from all over the country immediately rushed to Shanghai. Unexpectedly, after interviewing so many people in a row this week, not a single one could satisfy Lu Kuo.
Lu Kuo pushed his gold-rimmed glasses and fell silent for a rare moment. After a long pause, he said calmly, "I need to... take care of a special 'patient'."
The manager was stunned for a moment. Seeing that Lu Kuo had no intention of continuing, she stopped asking and continued, "What kind of talent do you want? What major and education? What kind of qualities do they have?"
The accident happened so suddenly that Lu Kuo didn't actually have a specific plan. He was interviewing like a aimless fly for several days.
He frowned slightly: "I need..."
He recalled the interviews he had conducted in the past few days. All the elite talents he interviewed were highly intelligent, well-educated and ambitious. For these people, joining the company was definitely not to be a nanny for a patient, but to achieve great things.
But these so-called "ambitions" are exactly what Lu Kuo does not need the most. What he wants is an honest and diligent ox or horse that is willing to work hard without complaint, so as to avoid conflicts with the "patient" to the greatest extent.
Thinking of that 'patient', Lu Kuo's eye muscles twitched nervously and his fingers trembled slightly.
But he gradually formed an idea in his mind and calmed himself down: "Is there anyone who is hardworking and down-to-earth? It doesn't matter if she has a low degree, but she shouldn't be too old, preferably a recent graduate."
The manager tried desperately to recall, "I think I saw someone from a second-tier university submitting a resume before, but I just brushed past it..." She rummaged through the backstage area for nearly ten minutes before finding the person who had done that second-tier university. "Look, this person used to work for one of our outsourcing companies, so he should have some knowledge of our company."
Lu Kuo clicked on it and took a look. What came into his sight was a pretty fair-skinned girl with bangs and a few strands of hair on her temples. She had a gentle and peaceful temperament, which made people feel very close to her.
This is a fairly ordinary resume, unremarkable from academic qualifications to abilities.
He slid his fingers down, paying special attention to the past experience and family background sections, and raised his lower lip slightly: "At eleven o'clock, call her to come for an interview."
The manager was about to agree when he noticed the resume submission date and awkwardly reminded her, "Sorry, Mr. Lu, she submitted it a week ago. I didn't notice it at the time, so I'm afraid she's already been hired by another company."
"Daisy, I don't pay you to push your problems onto me."
Lu Kuo paused, his expression impatient, his tone indifferent: "I don't care what method you use, I want to see her in this office at eleven o'clock, do you understand?"
The manager's palms were covered in cold sweat: "Don't worry!"
Only after she turned and left did Lu Kuo retract his gaze, which remained fixed on the resume for a long time until his thoughts were interrupted by the ringing of his cell phone.
He saw the caller ID, his heart sank, and he made preparations before answering the phone: "Dad..."
An old, tired voice came from the phone, "The Ace of Hearts... just passed away. Like the previous six, her heart stopped beating in her sleep without any warning."
Lu Kuo's heart tightened: "Ace of Hearts... but he's an S-level psychic, one of the strongest in the company, and it's only been less than a week..."
"Yeah, an S-rank, but he only lasted two days longer than the others." The old man, who had been in the business world for decades, said with a trembling voice, "001 is truly terrifying. I should have listened to you earlier and shouldn't have underestimated 001 from the beginning. I, I even wanted to destroy him."
Despite being mentally prepared, Lu Kuo's heart still sank to the bottom: "I am also responsible for this matter."
Fortunately, he was an excellent leader and quickly adjusted his mood. He said in a deep voice, "It's not the worst yet. Activate plan B and let me take full responsibility."
......
When Chen Run received the call from the parasol company, he was eating clay pot rice noodles in his rental house, and he carefully saved two quail eggs for last.
In front of her was not the second-hand mobile phone she usually used to watch TV series, but a pirated success book "How to Become a Leader? Master Xu Takes You to Master the Workplace".
There are also several books scattered on the bed, including "Workplace Tricks", "How to Please Your Boss", "Teaching You How to Identify Unreliable Companies", and other workplace chicken soup books, which can be regarded as a guide for the advancement of office workers.
While Chen Run was studying seriously, he recalled his previous terrible work experience and was overwhelmed with sadness.
She graduated from university last year. With the great ambition of becoming successful and famous, and with the several thousand yuan of living expenses she had saved up, she traveled thousands of miles to Shanghai to find a mentor.
Her first interview was with a large outsourcing company. The boss promised that if she performed well, she would be able to become a regular employee of the large company. Shen Run was so excited that she took this huge promise at first gulp. After starting work, she worked diligently and radiated her enthusiasm. She was the first to arrive and the last to leave every day. She was even the first to take out the trash in the office.
When she first joined the company, her colleagues and superiors were all kind and friendly to her. However, she didn't expect that this company was nepotism and everyone was related to each other. She didn't know how she offended a small leader in a certain department, and as a result, most of the people in the company ganged up on her and excluded her. Even the few people who usually got along well with her wanted to avoid her when they saw her. Shen Run almost developed a mental illness.
What's even more frightening is that the economy has been in a downturn in the past two years and the company's operations have also encountered problems. Profits plummeted at the beginning of the year and salaries could not be paid for several months. The overall environment was not good and Shen Run was almost depressed and did not dare to resign. As a result, last month, the boss's boyfriend suddenly parachuted into the company as a department manager and harassed Shen Run openly and covertly.
Honest woman Shen Run finally couldn't stand it anymore and asked to resign on the spot. Unexpectedly, the company did not give her salary and compensation on the grounds that she resigned voluntarily. When she tried to contact the person in charge of the former company, she found that she had been blocked by the other party.
The total amount of salary and compensation is tens of thousands. She is reluctant to spend the money and wants to apply for labor arbitration, but because the process is lengthy and complicated, she now owes a lot of foreign debts and can hardly pay the rent this month.
——What's even more terrifying is that she has lowered her work standards to serving dishes in a hot pot restaurant, and this job was snatched away by the owner's brother-in-law yesterday.
Thinking of this, she raised her hand to wipe away the sad tears, took out her mobile phone and played a song "If the Moon Has Not Come Yet" for herself.
Her phone suddenly vibrated. She pressed the answer button and heard a gentle and kind female voice from the other end: "Hello, Miss Shen, is it convenient for you to talk on the phone now? I am Ren Qian, the HR manager of Sun Umbrella Company..."
Shen Run shuddered and immediately became alert.
The outsourcing company she worked for before provided services to a parasol company. When the former company was deceiving her, it promised her that she would have the opportunity to become a regular employee within two years. So much so that she dreamed of signing the regularization contract for a while.
It was only after she left her job that she found out that the Parasol Company rarely recruited outsiders and had extremely high requirements for its employees. It was said that the lowest rank for workers there was C9. It could be said that she would have no hope of getting a permanent position even if she worked there until her death.
Later, when she saw that the parasol company was recruiting, she simply randomly threw in her resume, just like when she applied to Tsinghua University for college - the important thing was to participate.
There was no way the parasol company would even consider her. Besides, the job she was applying for wasn't a management position, so any calls would be made by HR. Why would the manager need to contact her so formally? Anyone with a modicum of common sense would know these things.
Ah...are scammers nowadays so unprofessional?
Considering that the other party knew her real phone number, she said cowardly: "Actually... that... sister, I only have a few dollars left in my card, which is not enough for you to make this call. How about, how about..."
She originally wanted to appeal to his emotions and reason with him, but unfortunately her eloquence was not good. She mumbled "or" for a long time before finally saying, "or let it go..."
Ren Qian, who was considered a liar: "..."
Fortunately, she was not the kind of person who would argue with a child, and her voice was still as gentle as a spring breeze: "If you don't believe me, Ms. Shen, you can add me on WeChat, and I will send you my ID card and information." She blended a smile into her voice: "It's like this, I've read your resume, and I think you are very suitable for our position. Today at 10:30, can you spare time to come to the company for an interview?" She deliberately left half an hour to prevent any accidents.
Chen Run was intimidated by her friendly and professional attitude, and his heart began to waver: "...You...uh...you really are not a liar?"
"Of course." Ren Qian smiled and said, "Why don't you add my WeChat and I'll send you the information and address right away."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Run added her on WeChat with a try-it-out attitude. The other party actually sent her ID card and various information, and also downloaded a formal interview invitation letter on the recruitment software.
Shen Run was dumbfounded.
I was shocked, it was actually the parasol company!
She jumped up, quickly crawled under the bed, and took out her best professional suit - this was the one she had bought with all her savings when she graduated, costing nearly eight hundred yuan.
She hurriedly dug out some cosmetics that she hadn't used for a long time and clumsily put on some light makeup.
She looked in the mirror and saw that it was almost ten o'clock. She gritted her teeth and used Huabei to call a Didi for herself. Finally, she arrived at the parasol company at ten thirty-five.
Sun Umbrella is financially strong and owns an entire building in the land-scarce Shanghai, where CPD owns a building. The exterior of the building is inlaid with silver-gray metal reflective glass panels, which has a bit of a cyberpunk feel. To be honest, she has worked in Sun Umbrella's outsourcing company for so long, but she has never been to the headquarters once and has always stayed in the old and shabby office.
Chen Run, a low-level office worker, was shocked and rushed into the company, bowing and apologizing: "I'm sorry, Manager Ren, I'm late!!"
Ren Qian was waiting at the front desk. She was wearing a custom-made professional suit, with a gentle demeanor and a friendly attitude. "It's okay, Miss Shen. I informed you a little late. Please come this way."
Chen Run walked into the elevator with her trembling. Ren Qian directly pressed the button for the elevator reserved for senior executives. She was stunned for a moment and became suspicious again: "Manager, are we going to...an interview?" Do you need to meet with senior executives to interview an ordinary employee?
Ren Qian smiled but said nothing (in fact, she didn't know what was going on). She brought Shen Run to a spacious and magnificent office and said with a smile: "Miss Shen, this is it. Please go in."
When she looked up, the five big words "Chairman's Office" blinded her.
Chen Run: “…”
The chairman of the world's largest pharmaceutical company came to interview her, a corporate slave from a second-tier university?
Wan La, she is going to be tricked into going to Ga Yao Zi La in northern Myanmar!
