Chapter 1: The Way of Job Hunting (3)
"Hello, what major are you studying?" the reporter asked politely.
"I'm a fourth-year student majoring in computer science at the School of International Relations." The boy answered in very ordinary Mandarin. This speech was like branded goods, and one could tell it was a product from the coastal region as soon as they heard it.
"What position are you applying for?"
Foot washer.
The female journalist was shocked by his words. With a keen sense of smell sharper than that of police dogs, she sensed that there was potential for further exploration in the situation before her eyes, so she continued to probe: "Washing feet is very hard work, are you willing to continue doing it?"
"This line still has a lot of development prospects, I think it can be persisted." The foot-washing job has great prospects - anyone can hear that it's not sincere, the tone is hollow and lacks confidence. Fortunately, the young man has already grasped an important rule in the workplace - speaking clichés. It will be useful for the rest of his life.
The female journalist nodded to indicate the end of the interview, thanked her and walked up to a girl. Compared to the previous boy's stiffness, this female classmate had obviously undergone many trials and tribulations, speaking in a smooth and sincere tone: "Hello, journalist. I am a student from the Foreign Language Department of Capital University of Aerospace and Aeronautics, here to apply for an administrative management position. I know that many people look down on this line of work, but I think it's an industry that can be developed and strengthened. My goal is to become a lobby manager, but I don't mind starting from the bottom. Without grassroots experience, it's impossible to do a good job as a lobby manager. I believe that through my own efforts, I will quickly become familiar with the work and get promoted, ultimately achieving my dreams."
The female student's fluent and articulate responses left the female journalist very satisfied, thinking that cultured people are indeed different, unlike those so-called celebrities whose interviews need to be edited a dozen times before they can barely be broadcast.
After interviewing two students, the female reporter turned her attention to a person who claimed to be a manager at the booth. As soon as he had the opportunity to face the camera, he immediately began to advertise: "Our Emperor Group is one of the largest entertainment groups in the country, with over 50 nightclubs, clubs, sauna centers and bars under its umbrella, owning more than 1,200 elegant KTV rooms and over 500 leisure massage rooms. We strive to meet the needs of guests from all over the world, exceeding their expectations, and provide them with high-quality services. This time, our group is recruiting for hundreds of positions in 13 companies in Hailin City, ranging from grassroots service staff to assistant general managers, mainly targeting college graduates. Our requirement is that whether it's a management position or a grassroots job, you must start from the grassroots service position, such as washing feet and massaging feet, to accumulate experience. We are not doing this for hype, but to do something for society and cultivate our reserve forces." The manager was clearly well-prepared and spoke eloquently. However, the female reporter frowned slightly after listening, thought for a moment, and then approached the manager to discuss something with him. The manager suddenly had an epiphany, like Sakyamuni under the Bodhi tree, and continued to speak in front of the camera: "We are not doing this for hype. This requirement is to cultivate our company's reserve forces through practice, while also correcting the arrogant attitude of college students, letting them leave their ivory tower, enter society with a humble attitude, and solve the employment difficulties of 'high but not successful, low but not employed'."
