Chapter 10 A Simple Interview
Li Shen looked at Wei Yan's anxious expression and said with a feigned air of profundity.
"You haven't forgotten about that return order incident before the New Year, have you?"
"How could I forget, but what does that have to do with President Chen?"
Wei Yan's expression was confused. He was one of the victims of that return order incident, so how could he forget?
Those were his customers. Because the quality of the clothes was much worse than before, they ended up returning all of them.
There were tens of thousands of returned clothes, and now they are all gathering dust in the warehouse.
"Of course it's related."
"You said there are tens of thousands of pieces of clothing in the warehouse that haven't been dealt with, yet you only think about going out to get new orders. Which boss would be happy with that!"
"Look, President Chen has been talking to you about internal company matters. He's clearly hinting at you."
Li Shen analyzed with a serious air.
Upon hearing this, Wei Yan felt as if enlightened, instantly realizing the truth.
He excitedly slammed the table.
"That's right, why didn't I think of that? So President Chen wants me to deal with those piled-up clothes!"
But soon, his excited expression darkened again.
"But the quality of those clothes is too poor. Even if I want to deal with them, the customers might not want them!"
"Why don't you try a different approach? You can find other sales channels."
"You have a way?"
Wei Yan looked at Li Shen expectantly.
Li Shen smiled without speaking, pointing to his empty wine glass.
Seeing this, Wei Yan quickly opened a new bottle of wine and filled his glass.
Li Shen picked up the full wine glass and took a big gulp.
"You can find those who sell clothes at stalls. I've seen that the quality of the clothes they sell isn't great either, but the main thing is they're cheap. A piece of clothing is only around ten to twenty yuan."
"You can find several stall vendors. Don't sell for much, just five or six yuan a piece. I don't believe those vendors won't take them."
As Wei Yan listened to Li Shen's explanation, the more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
He decided to find a few stall vendors tomorrow night and give it a try.
"Good brother, I owe you a lot this time. I'll toast you."
Saying this, he picked up his wine glass, clinked it against Li Shen's, and downed the drink.
"Drink!"
Seeing this, Li Shen also happily drained his glass.
After drinking,
Wei Yan looked up at Li Shen.
"Do you think I should discuss this with President Chen first?"
"No need for now. After you've dealt with the backlog of clothes, then inform President Chen and give him a surprise."
"Alright!"
…………..
The next day.
Chen Mo woke up early, washed up, and left immediately. He didn't go to the company today but went directly to the municipal government building.
There was a job fair at the municipal government building today, and he was going there to try his luck and see if he could find a few suitable people.
Arriving on the third floor,
Coincidentally, he met that family again.
The woman was helping the man straighten his collar at the entrance, seemingly giving some instructions.
Seeing him come downstairs, the man took the little girl and went down first.
Looking at the backpack the man was wearing, he was probably taking the little girl to school.
Going downstairs to the community entrance, he hailed a taxi and headed straight for the municipal government building.
Municipal Government Building,
Chen Mo registered with the administrative staff, paid some fees, and secured a recruitment spot.
Due to the rush, he hadn't prepared any recruitment tools.
Compared to the posters and banners of other companies, he only had a handwritten recruitment advertisement placed on the square table in front of him.
Changfeng Clothing Factory is hiring talented individuals at high salaries.
Recruitment positions: Boss Assistant, Finance, Accounting, Clerk, Worker, Sales, etc… positions.
Moreover, his location was quite secluded, in a corner of the entire recruitment area.
A little over half a day passed in a flash,
Chen Mo was resting his head on the table, feeling drowsy. In a whole half-day, he hadn't managed to recruit a single person.
Almost everyone looking for a job just glanced at the recruitment advertisement and then completely ignored him.
"They're hiring clerks here."
"There's not even a decent poster. It's definitely not a good place, maybe even a scam company."
"Then… let's go look over there."
Two girls stood in front of the table, talked for a couple of sentences, and then walked away directly.
"Shallow!"
Chen Mo looked at the two girls who didn't even bother to ask, muttered a complaint to himself, and then lay on the table to take a nap.
He had come to understand that he probably wouldn't be able to recruit anyone today.
…………..
"Your education is good, we can hire you."
"Really?"
Shen Rou looked at the interviewer with some surprise.
The interviewer looked at the surprised Shen Rou, smiled slightly, and spoke again.
"However, you wrote that you haven't graduated yet and are in the internship phase, so you cannot become a full employee before you graduate. The salary can only be two thousand a month temporarily, and as for the five thousand yuan salary advance you requested, we cannot fulfill that."
Upon hearing this, Shen Rou's surprised expression instantly darkened. She looked at the interviewer and pleaded.
"I really urgently need a sum of money right now. Can't you really advance it? Don't worry, I can sign a contract, and I will definitely work hard."
"Sorry, the company does not have a precedent for salary advances."
The interviewer's attitude was firm.
Seeing this, Shen Rou turned and left in disappointment. She didn't know which company this was that she had interviewed with, but not a single company was willing to advance her salary.
What should I do!
She really needs money right now.
Shen Rou walked past company after company with a heavy heart, looking for a suitable job.
Since she had another job in the evening, she had to find a daytime job that wouldn't affect her evening work.
In a morning, she had almost walked through the entire recruitment area. This was already the last row, and if she didn't find a suitable job, she would have to work as a temporary laborer.
Her gaze swept over the recruitment advertisements of the companies in the last row one by one, and her expression gradually became disappointed. The positions offered by the companies in this last row did not meet her requirements.
It seems she can only look for temporary work, but temporary work is not a long-term solution after all.
Shen Rou's expression was downcast. Just as she was about to leave, her gaze swept over a recruitment advertisement on a square table in the corner.
Hiring Assistant, Finance, Clerk…
She majored in business administration in college, and she could handle several of the positions listed in the advertisement.
But looking at the simple recruitment advertisement and the recruiter who seemed to be asleep on the table, Shen Rou hesitated a bit.
Is a company like this really reliable?
She had walked through the entire job fair, and this was the first time she had seen a recruiter sleeping on the table.
Shen Rou stood there hesitating for a long time, but finally walked over. She decided to give it a try.
After all, her requirement was a salary advance. If this company wasn't reliable, it wouldn't be possible for them to advance her salary, would it?
With this mindset, Shen Rou came to the square table and spoke softly, looking at Chen Mo who was sleeping soundly.
"Hello, I'd like to interview."
