The so-called recruitment interview refers to the process in which human individuals completely abandon their personal dignity in order to make a living, turning themselves into a commodity called "labor force" and actively selling it to the market.
On this special occasion, human beings are no more noble than a cabbage, and buyers and sellers will engage in sincere and sharp bargaining based on the candidate's use value.
Specifically, the employer will put on airs, find fault with resumes, criticize character, comment on clothing, and use all overt and covert means to undermine the applicant's self-confidence, thereby lowering the applicant's expected salary; and if the applicants are not well prepared, If he is unable to demonstrate his usefulness in a short period of time, he will be greeted with cynicism that is devoid of all dignity and an extremely cold send-off.
Everyone's first interview is a big test from society.
And even the resume was filled out in a blur on the spot. I didn’t even know what kind of job I was recruiting for, so I just walked into the examination room unprepared with a bird on my head.
The result is predictable - the girl behaved in a mess in front of the interviewer, and ultimately fell into deep self-denial.
"Girl, you are not suitable for the work of raising Pokémon here. While you are young and beautiful and have not yet become short-sighted, go and find a job in a nearby electronics factory. Tightening screws is also a delicate job, and the income is stable. It is very suitable for people like you. A quiet girl..."
The aunt from the human resources department put down the materials, raised her gold-rimmed glasses to her forehead, and gave such "kindly" advice to the weird girl with the bird on her head.
Yes, yes, Bi Lan is such a useless person.
She has never even attended a serious junior college, nor has she obtained a decent certificate. Apart from being able to assign Pokémon to battle, what other advantages does she have?
He is just a non-staff assistant working for Dr. Oki and a semi-finalist in the 10th Quartz Alliance Conference. What qualifications does Bilan have to work in their noble iron factory?
.
"Sister Xiaolan, don't listen to those people's nonsense. Those interviewers tell everyone the same thing. Real strength will not be printed on diplomas and certificates. You have to believe in yourself."
Dou Zi patted the back of Bi Lan, who was standing blankly, to calm the senior's emotions, and winked at the detective, asking Hugo to say some words of comfort.
However, Hugo remained indifferent, frowning and lost in thought.
After thinking for a while, just before Dou Zi could not help but complain, the detective in the white coat came back to his senses.
He raised his face, faced the two girls and said seriously: "Don't you think it's strange?"
"What's weird?" Douzi tilted his head in confusion, and even Bilan turned his attention to the detective.
"The queue of trainers in front of us obviously still had so many people, but when the interviewer faced an applicant like Bilan who obviously did not meet the recruitment requirements, he did not kick her out immediately. Instead, he pretended to interview her. It lasted nearly half an hour, and in the end he gave a long speech...Don't you think these actions of the other party are too deliberate?"
"Are you saying they are delaying time on purpose?" The girl with a high ponytail thought quickly and expressed her suspicion.
"They are indeed stalling for time, but their purpose is not just that..."
Hugo stopped mid-sentence because he saw Bilan's renewed fighting spirit, so he decided to give up the right to speak to his assistant——
"Bi Lan, it seems you already know the answer."
"Yes, Mr. Director." Bilan smiled, "This is actually a very simple deductive reasoning."
At this time, the girl's eyes were no longer empty. After her brain, which had been trained for a long time in the office, was working rapidly, she came to an obvious inference.
"Wasting time on me is just a tactic. The interviewer's real purpose is to extend the time required for each interviewee, so as to reduce the total number of people interviewed today."
"Why did the interviewer do what he did?" Douzi asked Xiang Bilan cooperatively.
"My first reaction was that these companies actually didn't want to accept Pokémon trainers. But this idea was immediately rejected, because the right to interpret whether to accept or not is in the hands of the company. If the boss wants to There is no harvest from this job fair, they can just throw everything into the wastebasket, there is no need to do such a small trick at the job fair."
Listening to Bilan's words, Hugo nodded lightly. This was exactly his guess.
"So, is it because the HR manager who interviewed me has any plans in private? Is it because she hates me personally? This is impossible. The breeder hired by the factory has nothing to do with the business of the HR department, so there is no robbery. Conflicts of interest such as job opportunities. And I just arrived in Liyong City for the first time today. I still don’t know the local customs, let alone have anything to do with the steel mill.”
"But if that's the case, why did that aunt scold Sister Xiaolan so hard?"
Douzi looked at the detective and his assistant who were obviously connected with each other and was completely confused.
"It's to avoid seeing someone in the queue behind me." Bi Lan said quietly——
"What the supervisor was actually thinking was - as long as the interview time of each interviewer is extended enough, today's recruitment day can be fooled, and before the mysterious troublesome person comes to her, Leave work and avoid possible conflicts.”
"avoid confict?"
For some reason, Douzi remembered what Hugo said before -
Two creatures with clear opinions but unable to convince each other would be better off not meeting each other, otherwise they will most likely quarrel.
But the girl still couldn't believe it. It was clear that Sister Xiaolan was just scolded by the interviewer, so how could she deduce so much information? Could it be that he made it up on the spot to escape reality?
"I didn't make it up on the spot."
Bi Lan read her feelings at this moment from the expression of her junior. So just like detectives often do, they used their mind-reading skills to the point——
“It wasn’t until just now that I recalled that among the candidates in front of me, some of their interviews were successful and some were unsuccessful, but without exception they all took far longer than normal – this is what I have never done. I heard it in the comments of passers-by. Combined with my own personal experience, I clearly accidentally entered the job fair, but I was still dragged into the interview for half an hour - the delaying tactics of the interviewer's aunt were clearly revealed. Yes! There must be something fishy behind this!"
"But it seems that the interviewer's delaying tactics failed."
Hugo looked at the queue in front of him again and suddenly said -
"There are many people here who have applied for interviews with different companies at the same time. The queue at this ironmaking company is so slow that more than half of the applicants have already left. By a strange combination of circumstances, the one who scares the interviewer People may have already been lined up in front of her..."
Before the detective finished speaking, the crowd in front of the team suddenly started boiling like boiling water.
People's exclamations came from the distance...
"It's not good, the supervisor was beaten! There's a lot of nosebleeds... Hurry! Send him to the hospital!"
