Chapter 354 Strange Cycle



After dealing with the affairs of the company and the crew, Yang Ruoqian went home as usual, ate, took a shower and rested.

"What are you looking at?"

Yang Ruoqian blew his hair clean and walked into the living room. He saw Chang Zhiqing looking at the tablet with great interest and asked curiously.

Chang Zhiqing double-clicked the screen to pause the playback, then turned around and said with a smile, "It's a job-hunting variety show. Have you forgotten... Didn't you ask Lu Shuyuan from the HR department to participate?"

"Oh yeah, there's actually this." The busy CEO Yang immediately remembered, "I almost forgot about it. Does it look good?"

"From the perspective of the show's effect, it's pretty good." Chang Zhiqing's analysis was relatively objective. "The program team should have carefully selected many different 'talents' from different fields, and even deliberately selected some... well, people whose self-confidence and ability didn't quite match to go on stage."

Yang Ruoqian nodded: "It's normal. After all, it's a variety show, not a normal social recruitment or school recruitment. Serving the audience is still the first priority."

Chang Zhiqing gave Yang Ruoqian half a space and continued, "Sometimes, when you see a job seeker who is so amazing, you wish all the guests would attack him and dampen his enthusiasm; sometimes, when you see a job seeker who is obviously very good, there are just one or two guests who deliberately find fault with him... In short, the program team has done a good job in attracting the audience's emotions."

It sounds good... I just don't know if Lu Shuyuan can listen to me and recruit more "heaven-defying" people.

Everything about Kuiguang Group is good now, except that it lacks people who hold it back.

Of course, what Yang Ruoqian needs is someone who is very confident but lacks ability. If someone is deliberately trying to disgust others, there is no need to recruit him into the company. It is a bit disgusting to see a villain succeed.

Moreover, most of these people have no ambition at all, are unwilling to try, and are unwilling to work hard... If they don't even try, how can they come up with some big projects that can lose money?

Just eating the empty salary and canteen food is just a drop in the bucket for the Kuiguang Group.

Yang Ruoqian sat on the sofa, took the tablet, used Bluetooth to project the contents on the screen directly onto the TV in the living room.

"Let's watch it together."

"You watch this kind of variety show, too?" Chang Zhiqing moved a little, "Or do you really want to recruit some people for your company from this variety show?"

"Maybe?" Yang Ruoqian didn't say yes or no, "Our company recruits people in an unconventional way, and they always bring me surprises in all kinds of unexpected places. Maybe this variety show can also be a good choice."

Chang Zhiqing joked, "Just don't break your undefeated golden body."

Break it quickly...

Is this the aura of a reborn protagonist? But Yang Ruoqian really doesn't need this aura of a protagonist!

"Haha, failure is normal. How can anyone in this world have smooth sailing?" Yang Ruoqian shrugged. "No matter how powerful a person is, he will definitely encounter some setbacks."

Chang Zhiqing glanced at Yang Ruoqian oddly and said, "Isn't that you? Apart from the small loss you made when you first started selling equipment, have you encountered any setbacks?"

The last time the university counselor contacted Yang Ruoqian, hoping that he could help solve the employment problem, Yang Ruoqian waved his hand and directly recruited everyone.

The result? Even these students who had been screened had a "private customization" project after being recruited into the company.

The most important thing is that this project also attracted Shao Yiqi's father, who specially brought in a lot of big bosses to come over, and they would always come up with a big deal.

Frustration? There really was no frustration at all.

Mr. Yang: "... Let's not talk about this anymore. How far has this variety show progressed?"

Chang Zhiqing crossed her legs and smiled, "This is the first episode of the variety show. There aren't that many hot spots yet. The first one is about a relatively standard job seeker. He graduated from a mediocre 211 university, with mediocre grades and abilities... Actually, this is already pretty good in the job market, but this is a variety show, you know."

"You can also go to the audience and take a look. As the boss of Kuiguang Group, the production team must be eager for you to go there."

Yang Ruoqian shook his head: "Tsk, they don't want me to go there, they want me to see the reaction of Yuefu Group after I go there... The conflict between our two companies is already known to everyone."

"By the way, how did the conflict between us and them arise?"

"I've long forgotten about it... I think it's a combination of multiple factors."

For example, Lin Cao, the anti-Yuefu demon, would have a stress reaction and behave irrationally whenever Yuefu Group was mentioned...

As she spoke, Chang Zhiqing double-clicked the screen and the variety show continued playing.

In the guest seats, several guests in different attires sat upright, looking at the job seeker who was giving a speech on the stage with scrutiny.

Among the seven guests, there are Lu Shuyuan from Kuiguang Group, a leader from Yuefu Group, and even the general manager of Gaoyao Group.

Unlike in the past, Sungwoo Group did not join the variety show this time.

It is enough to have two companies that are diametrically opposed to each other. If there are more, it will affect the impression.

"Tsk tsk, Shao Yiqi's father actually wanted to put someone like the general manager in a variety show?"

Chang Zhiqing said as she watched, "He heard that our company was also going to participate, so he arranged for the general manager to come... You don't know how many people want to take a peek at our recruitment standards."

Other companies want to know the recruitment standards of Kuiguang Group to see how they are able to recruit so many talents so accurately.

Job seekers and viewers, especially those who have been rejected by Kuiguang Group, are very eager to take a look at the recruitment standards of Kuiguang Group.

At this point, Chang Zhiqing suddenly paused, revealing a thoughtful expression: "By the way, what exactly are our company's recruitment criteria?"

As the boss's wife, she suddenly realized that she didn't seem to know much about Yang Ruoqian and the Human Resources Department's recruitment criteria.

The company has never issued any documents or had any rigid standards.

For example, academic qualifications, work experience, or something else.

Not only were there no regulations, but even Yang Ruoqian's own actions were not understood by anyone in the company.

Sometimes, you can see Yang Ruoqian recruiting people with highly educated degrees and impressive resumes into the company; sometimes, he recruits people who have no idea what they are doing into the company to be responsible for very important projects.

For example, the deputy producer in charge of "The Richest Man in Jinhai City" was hired casually by Yang Ruoqian during a meal, without even asking about the most basic academic qualifications and work experience.

It is wishful thinking to expect employees to find any pattern from Mr. Yang's behavior.

Yang Ruoqian looked at the screen and said nonsense casually: "There is no hard and fast standard. As long as the candidate is suitable for the position, we can hire him no matter how bad his conditions are. If he is not suitable for the position, we will not hire him no matter how good his conditions are."

"What you said..." Chang Zhiqing couldn't help but complain, "Isn't it because the cost of confirming whether a person is suitable for a position is too high, so there are various rigid requirements?"

From a personal perspective, students who graduate from higher education institutions may not necessarily have better working abilities than job seekers with lower grades.

However, from a statistical and probability perspective, the probability of selecting suitable employees for the position from people with good grades is greater than others.

If we set a hard standard first, the screening cost will be much lower.

While Chang Zhiqing was complaining, the variety show on the screen was still playing.

“…”

"Dear guest teachers, the above is all my personal information. I believe in my ability, and I hope you will give me a chance!"

Now is the first stage of job hunting, when companies select people.

If the company head is unwilling to recruit him, he can simply press the light-off button on the table, which means direct rejection without any chance to regret.

If the company guest is willing to recruit him, he can put forward his own conditions, give the job seeker a position, press the "favorite" button, the light will change from pending white to green, and wait for the next stage. There is no chance to regret.

When the number of companies willing to recruit this job applicant is greater than or equal to two, the recruitment process enters the second stage, and all guests reveal their recruitment benefits and positions.

Job seekers can choose their favorite job and sign a labor contract on the spot, which means they have successfully found the job.

A guest from a company that provides classified information service platform was the first to press the "Favorite" button.

Compared with other companies present, although many people have heard of their company, its scale and financial resources are not that large. It just so happens that the person in front of them is more suitable for their new project, and his conditions are not particularly outstanding. Overall, the cost-effectiveness is relatively high.

For a company like Kuiguang Group, which has large projects worth tens of billions or even hundreds of billions, it is actually very powerful.

After seeing someone press the "favorite" button, Lu Shuyuan no longer looked at the job seekers on the stage.

She always kept her boss's orders in mind - only those who were unwanted by any other company would be considered.

However, considering the applicant's face and the reputation of Kuiguang Group, Lu Shuyuan did not press the reject button immediately. Instead, she planned to wait until the countdown was halfway through before pressing it. This way, she would not reject too quickly and hurt the applicant's self-esteem, nor would she reject too slowly and waste time.

The host looked at the company guest who had chosen to recruit and asked, "Mr. Liang agreed very quickly. What did you see in our job applicants?"

The company guest spoke quickly: "To be honest... the conditions you provided can only be considered average in this program, not particularly outstanding. But our company is currently carrying out a new project, and your ability is a perfect match for the previous position."

"But don't underestimate yourself. Your grades show your learning ability, and your ability to be on this stage also proves your mental ability."

"It's your luck that our company launched a new project. It's your strength that you were chosen successfully."

"You have to be prepared. The position I offer you requires you to grow and hone yourself from the beginning."

"That's all."

“…”

The job seeker was obviously very excited. He nodded and bowed repeatedly: "Thank you, Mr. Liang, thank you."

After a while, no other company turned on the lights except this one.

So there was no second stage and both parties signed the labor contract on the spot.

After the first guest left, the host began to liven up the atmosphere: "The next job seeker... let's welcome him!"

After a round of applause, a young man who looked young but somewhat weathered walked up to the stage and bowed to the guests.

"Hello, teachers. My name is... I am from..."

After briefly introducing himself, the big screen behind the job applicant began playing a video.

The video shows a RV that is neither new nor old, driving on a winding mountain road.

The first sentence was a resounding "I dropped out of high school due to family reasons, but..."

"when!"

“Dang…dang!”

Before he could even finish the word "but", three lights in the guest seats had already been turned off.

After hearing about the academic qualifications, the guests lost interest in listening any further and simply pressed the lights-out button.

The job applicant's face turned pale, and his eyes, which had originally had a bit of confidence, were instantly filled with anxiety.

An introduction video like this usually has two or three parts. After each part, there will be a session for the guest to ask questions and the job seeker to answer them.

During this period, company guests can freely choose to turn off the lights or not.

Now, only the first three seconds of the first video have been played, and three companies have already chosen to turn off the lights... This is a very bad sign.

But no matter what the job seeker thought, the video continued to play.

“I have xx fans on xx platform…I usually share my life, shoot vlogs and write novels to make a living…I hope…”

After the first video was introduced, a guest asked him a few questions about his future plans and then decisively pressed the light off.

Now the only ones with lights on in the field are Kuiguang Group, Yuefu Group and Gaoyao Group.

The general manager of Gaoyao Group actually wanted to turn off the lights a long time ago, but before he came, he received an order from his boss Shao Changfeng, asking him to learn from Kuiguang Group... Seeing that the human resources director of Kuiguang Group had not turned off the lights, he suppressed his confusion and did not turn off the lights.

The guests from Yuefu Group had the same purpose - first, to learn from their competitors, and second, to see if they could snatch some people from Kuiguang Group.

Lu Shuyuan, who was on the far right, looked around with some confusion at the remaining two companies whose lights had not been turned off.

Why don't they turn off the lights?

In fact, Lu Shuyuan thought that this person could be recruited into the company to see if he could be made a column blogger or something, to promote the company and bring in products, which might bring some profit to the company.

But the boss said that if other companies want this person, Lu Shuyuan must not accept it. Only job seekers that all other guests do not want can be included in the consideration of Kuiguang Group.

Now the other two families have not chosen to turn off the lights, nor have they expressed their preference. It has been in this pending state, and she is in a bit of a dilemma.

In fact, no one knows that the current guest group has fallen into a strange cycle - if Lu Shuyuan doesn't make a choice, the other two companies won't make a choice either; and if the other two companies don't make a choice, Lu Shuyuan can't make a choice either...

It's just so awkward.

The host glanced at the three large groups whose lights were still on on the stage, and an unexpected look appeared on his face.

In the arrangement of the program team, this job applicant is actually just a supporting role and all the lights are turned off in one round.

Now it seems that this is not the case?

Is this person really a talent favored by so many big companies?

"Okay, there are still three guest teachers waiting to be determined." The host controlled his facial emotions and smiled, "Then let's move on to the second round of video introductions!" (End of this chapter)
