Working Prophet

The interview took place in the conference room where I answered the question last time. But this time, there was only Li Yu, and neither the mustachioed man nor the sleep-deprived woman was there.

Before the interviewer entered the room, Li Yu adjusted his suit.

Although it is not advisable to judge people by their appearance, first impression is still very important in the workplace.

Forget about the first round of interviews, which are usually conducted by HR. The interviewer in the second round is likely to be your direct boss in the future. If the other party has a bad impression of you, then you will most likely be eliminated.

Even if the company is seriously short of people right now and you are recruited, future promotions and evaluations will be affected.

Of course, things like impressions can be reversed, but the easiest way is to establish a good image from the beginning.

After Li Yu confirmed that the tie's position was not crooked, his shirt was tucked into his waistband, and the zipper was unopened, he picked up the mineral water bottle on the side and took a sip.

Just to moisten his throat, Li Yu didn't drink more in order to prevent him from wanting to go to the toilet during the interview.

After returning home yesterday, Li Yu collected some information related to the third era. As a result, the more he read, the deeper his doubts became.

The company has been around for almost three years and has barely changed in size.

There have been several rounds of recruitment before, but each time the number of people was very small, like one or two. When the economic situation was good, there was no expansion. When the economic situation was bad, everyone tried their best to reduce expenses. There was no movement in the third era. .

In fact, after searching Maimai, Li Yu found that there was no news related to layoffs in the third era.

Common answers are that the company offers good benefits, no overtime, and daily work is interesting and not boring.

I don’t know if it’s because the public relations department is too powerful or because of some other reason.

In addition, Li Yu noticed an electronic clock on the wall behind the front desk when he came for the last interview.

Different from the common electronic clocks used to tell time, that electronic clock actually displays a countdown...

Li Yu didn't think any more because the door of the conference room had been pushed open.

A woman about the same age as Li Yu, wearing a khaki linen shirt, nine-quarter wide-leg pants, and retro loafers, walked in quickly from outside.

She placed a folder and a mini can of Coke Zero on the long table in the conference room, then stretched out her right hand, "Long wait, Xu Mengyuan from the Human Resources Department."

Li Yu stood up and shook hands with the person opposite him politely. Then Xu Mengyuan pulled out a chair at the square table and sat down with Li Yu one after another.

"First of all, congratulations on passing our company's written examination."

"Thanks."

"You answered a total of seventy-five of the one hundred questions, and thirty-two of them had correct answers."

"Well……"

"Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm complimenting you. This score is very good, because there are about forty questions and we don't know what the standard answers are. Some people say that the biggest difference between science and theology is the willingness to admit one's ignorance."

"..."

Li Yu didn't know what to say for a moment.

The conference room fell into a brief silence. After about a minute, Li Yu took the initiative to speak, "How about I introduce myself first?"

"No need." Xu Mengyuan said with a smile, "Don't underestimate the work of our Human Resources Department. The company has already collected almost all the necessary information about you."

"Background investigation? Shouldn't it be done after the candidate is selected?" Li Yu raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion.

"Well... our company is indeed a little different from other companies in terms of process." Xu Mengyuan smiled, opened the folder in front of him, knocked the gel pen in his hand on the conference table, and popped out the pen tip.

Then he leaned forward slightly and his expression became serious, "Mr. Li Yu... the company is very satisfied with your written test results and basic situation, but I have a few additional questions that I would like to confirm again. I hope You can answer truthfully."

Li Yu nodded.

"Do you have any religious beliefs?"

"What?"

"Are you a Christian, a Jew, a Buddhist, a Taoist, or someone who worships ancestors..."

"No, I'm a materialist."

"Very good," Xu Mengyuan sketched on the paper, "Don't get me wrong, Third Age respects every employee's freedom of belief, but if you have beliefs, it may affect your future work. The company must We will conduct a comprehensive assessment of the situation in this area, but if you have no faith, you can skip this step, which also saves me a lot of trouble."

After Xu Mengyuan finished speaking, he continued before Li Yu could speak again, "Second question, how much do you know about gods?"

"Sorry, does this have anything to do with the position I'm applying for?" Li Yu frowned, "The position you wrote in the recruitment information is junior analyst, mainly responsible for information collection and analysis, and providing strategic planning, organizational structure adjustment, etc. to customers. solutions..."

"Yes, these are all your work, there is no doubt about this, but your knowledge and understanding of gods will also greatly affect the progress of your work." Xu Mengyuan smiled at Li Yu.

"I still don't quite understand. Are we serving the Pope in the Vatican?"

"Of course not. However, the experience of your predecessors can provide you with valuable experience when you are in trouble. It is good for you to write on your resume that you have a strong learning ability. This is also the trait that the company values ​​most."

Seeing that Li Yu was silent, Xu Mengyuan took the initiative to calm down the atmosphere, "Well, you can ask the question later. Let me tell you first the basic salary and benefits you can enjoy after joining the company."

"Trouble." Li Yu said.

"The company's grade classification for you is P1. Every newcomer who just joins the company must start from the most basic level, no matter how beautiful their past resume is. Of course, this is only temporary and will be adjusted according to your performance in the future. .

"Our promotion system is very transparent. Just like when you play a game, there is an experience bar. When the experience bar is full, you can be promoted to the next level. There is no human intervention in the whole process, and you don't have to please anyone."

"Okay." Although Li Yu was a little surprised, he still nodded.

What surprised him even more was what came next.

"Your current level fixed salary is 1w7 before tax, 13 salary, five insurances and one fund, all at the highest level. As for the bonus, it depends on the income of the project. Don't worry, as long as you are not fishing in the water all the time, This part of the income will be on top of the basic salary.

"In addition, the company strictly abides by labor laws. There are physical examinations and annual leave every year. Gifts are also distributed on holidays. Annual leave starts at ten days, and two extra days are added for every year of work. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to mention that our entire From top to bottom in the company, no matter which department works overtime, not even a day, so if you have very urgent work, it’s best to finish it during working hours.”

"Can't you take it home?"

"Hmm...I'm afraid not," Xu Mengyuan kept smiling, "Also, the company gives each employee the greatest autonomy. You don't need to submit work plans and work summaries regularly, and you don't need to report work progress to anyone. In fact, as long as you You can do whatever you want as long as it does not violate the company's basic rules, and the company also encourages employees to use their best methods to solve various problems encountered at work."

"…………"

Li Yu didn't know what to say for a moment. Although each of these benefits given by the Third Age were listed individually as the rights that migrant workers should enjoy, when they were all put together, they sounded a bit magical.

If Xu Mengyuan's look was not serious from beginning to end, his tone was sincere, and there was no hint of joking, Li Yu would definitely think that this was some kind of large-scale social experiment, or a prank spoof of a reality TV show.

The camera might be hidden somewhere where he couldn't see it, and the celebrity guests in the studio were talking enthusiastically about his behavior.

Xu Mengyuan was not surprised by Li Yu's reaction and gave the latter some time to digest before continuing, "If you are worried, the conditions I mentioned before can be written into the contract."

"Why?" Li Yu asked back, "Don't the shareholders of your company have requirements for profit margins?"

"Of course there are requirements. We are a company, not a charity, and we are born to pursue profits. But our business is quite special. The board of directors believes that an excellent working environment and reasonable income distribution will help increase the motivation of employees and provide The company creates higher returns." Xu Mengyuan explained patiently.

"That's what I say, but now there is an oversupply of labor and the economic environment is not good. Why should we spend this extra money when we can obviously recruit people at a lower price?"

Li Yu still doesn't believe that there is a company in this world that would show such kindness.

"Because the talents we need are very special, and we will always respect special talents to the maximum extent." Xu Mengyuan said, "Mr. Li Yu, the Human Resources Department has put you on the watch list for a long time."

"I know, you did a background check on me."

"No, no, we observed you much earlier than that. Whether you believe it or not, the recruitment information you received more than a month ago was not sent randomly." Xu Mengyuan said meaningfully.

"What do you mean by this?" Li Yu frowned.
