For the next two days, Mi Qing focused on submitting resumes online.
Of course, she chose to work in City A. She selected several large companies, then carefully excluded companies that might have cooperation with their company, and finally settled on three.
However, it has been two days since I submitted my resume, and I haven't received an interview notice yet.
She gnawed on the bread she bought downstairs and continued to browse job-seeking websites. When I was in school, the teacher clearly said that their major is easy to find a job, why doesn't she think so at all now
When he finished eating the last bit of bread in his hand, the mobile phone that was placed aside finally vibrated. Mi Qing coughed a few times from being choked by the bread, and hastily picked up her phone to look at it.
Sure enough, it was an interview notice, asking her to go to the company for an interview at two o'clock this afternoon.
Mi Qing jumped up from her chair and cheered as if she had won a lottery. She rushed to the closet, watching with great interest as she picked out the clothes for the interview.
Considering that she should dress more formally for the interview, she purposely found a pleated long-sleeved white shirt and paired it with a knee-length navy blue A-line skirt, which really looked like a white-collar professional woman.
She put on her plaid coat and looked at it again and again in front of the mirror. After she felt impeccable, she went back to the computer and started looking for some interview experience posts.
At noon, she happily made a bowl of instant noodles. Although she was about to find a job and reach the pinnacle of her life, these instant noodles would really expire if she didn't eat them.
After finishing lunch, Mi Qing packed up all kinds of certificates and materials, and set off from the house at 12:30—the person on the experience post said that arriving early would make a good impression on people.
After getting off the taxi, she stood downstairs in the company and felt it. This company was built in the city center, surrounded by tall buildings, very prosperous. But even in this environment, the company building is still very eye-catching.
Mi Qing breathed a sigh of relief, stepped on her high heels and walked in.
There is a sign at the entrance, which is specially for those who come to interview today. Mi Qing followed the arrows and found the interview place smoothly. She thought she had arrived early, but she didn't expect that there were already many people sitting in the waiting hall.
An employee with a work badge asked her a few words, and after confirming that she was coming for an interview, he gave her a form. Mi Qing filled out the form, handed it back to the staff, and was invited to the waiting room.
She observed that all the men and women who came to the interview were dressed in formal attire. In contrast, the clothes she had specially selected suddenly became casual.
Mi Qing comforted herself, it doesn't matter, although she didn't wear formal clothes, she must be the prettiest, otherwise why are they all staring at her
Facing many curious eyes, Mi Qing showed a standard stewardess smile to everyone.
The girl closest to her leaned against her and asked in a low voice, "Are you also here for the interview?"
Mi Qing said: "Yes."
The girl didn't speak any more, and distanced herself from Mi Qing again.
At two o'clock, the interview started on time. The order of the interview was according to the order in which everyone came. The responsible staff handed over the form they had just filled in to the interviewer, and called names one by one.
It was already an hour later when it was Mi Qing's turn. She straightened her hair and coat, and walked into the interview room.
There were three people sitting inside, only the one in the middle was a woman.
Mi Qing took out the materials she had prepared from her shoulder bag, handed them over, and sat on the chair in the middle of the room.
The female HR didn't read her resume, but looked at her for a while and smiled: "Miss Mi's family background seems to be good?"
Mi Qing didn't expect that she would ask this question, she froze for a moment and said, "Well, it's okay."
The other party said again: "I just looked at the personal information you filled in. Our company is not in the same city as yours. Does Miss Mi have relatives and friends in City A?"
Mi Qing said: "No, I rent a room here alone."
HR nodded: "I see." She looked down at Mi Qing's resume for a while, and then asked, "Why does Miss Mi want to join our company?"
Mi Qing was relieved to hear this question, which is a must-ask question for almost every company. She recited the answers she had prepared a long time ago, nothing more than admiring the corporate culture and spirit of your company, wanting to challenge herself and realize herself.
In this round of interviews, the female HR in the middle was almost always asking questions. Mi Qing felt that she answered well. When the other party asked her expected salary, she deliberately did not say too high: "About five thousand."
HR smiled, looked at her and said, "Five thousand yuan still can't buy the skirt on you?"
Mi Qing pondered for a while, and said, "Uh, I don't need to buy the skirt."
HR didn't continue to ask after that, but just asked her to go back and wait for the news. Regardless of whether she was hired or not, she would send a text message as soon as possible.
When Mi Qing arrived home, Xiao Gu and Husky were not there. She looked at the wall clock in the living room. This time period is really the time for walking the dog.
She went back to her room, changed into slippers and pajamas, and went out with instant noodles.
In order to prevent getting hungry too quickly, she took two packs this time and was going to cook directly in the pot.
Although she can't cook, she can still boil water. She found a pot in the kitchen, brought some water to a boil, and threw the noodles down. After cooking, she sat directly in the living room, eating noodles while watching TV.
Halfway through eating the noodles, the phone in her pajamas pocket vibrated. Mi Qing froze her fork, and quickly took out her phone to take a look.
"Dear Miss Mi Qing, it's a pity that you didn't pass our initial interview. I hope you will continue to work hard and find a satisfactory job as soon as possible."
Mi Qing read the text message three times and put the phone back in her pocket.
She put the rabbit ear hat on her head, put her hands in her pockets, and buried her head.
Why did she not pass? She answered all the questions asked by HR very well. Could it be that the final expected salary was too high? But five thousand yuan is still high? The prices in City A are not low either.
When Xiao Gu came back from walking the husky, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Mi Qing sitting motionless in the living room, with her head lowered lifelessly, and she rolled her eyes: "You promised not to die in my room. "
Mi Qing: "..."
She raised her head and looked at Xiao Gu at the door: "I'm just depressed."
"Oh." Xiao Gu pulled the husky inside, "Tired of pickled pepper beef?"
Mi Qing twitched the corner of her mouth, and before she could speak, the husky let out a "bark" and threw herself to the table, looking at her remaining half bowl of instant noodles.
Mi Qing: "..."
She picked up the fork again and quickly ate up the noodles in the bowl.
The pitiful cry of the husky came from my ear.
Xiao Gu took out dog food from the kitchen and poured some into its bowl: "Come and eat."
Husky reluctantly went to eat dog food, Xiao Gu glanced at Mi Qing, who was still depressed, and asked after a while, "You failed to find a job?"
Mi Qing: "..."
Could it be that she had failed to apply for a job written on her face
Seeing that Mi Qing didn't speak, Xiao Gu felt that he guessed it right. He laughed, walked to the other side of the sofa and sat down: "Didn't you graduate from some university abroad and find a job easily?"
Mi Qing: "..."
She raised her hand and pulled her hat off, looked at him angrily and said, "What about you? What kind of university are you from? Have you graduated from high school?"
Xiao Gu raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not answer her.
Mi Qing snorted disdainfully, put on her hat again, and continued to sink in the living room.
Xiao Gu looked at her for a while and asked, "What company did you interview for?"
Mi Qing was silent for a while, but still told him the company name.
Xiao Gudao: "Your resume is for such a big company?"
Mi Qing hummed.
Xiao Gudao: "First, although you studied in a foreign university, you are only a bachelor's degree, and your competitiveness in such a large trading company is not outstanding. Second, you have no work experience. Third, you seem to be doing it soon. I If it was HR, I wouldn't hire you either."
Mi Qing: "..."
She couldn't refute the first two, but she could fight for the third one: "Why do I look like I've been doing it for a while?"
Xiao Gu smiled: "You are such a young lady, who would think that you have been working for a long time? An important reference factor for companies to recruit is the stability of job applicants, and you have too many unstable factors."
Mi Qing frowned: "Oh, so you mean I've never been able to find a job?"
Xiao Gu said: "You can try to invest in some small and medium-sized enterprises, and also wear low-key clothes during the interview."
Mi Qing pursed her lips and turned her head back.
Xiao Gu pretended to be stunned and said: "Oh, I forgot, how can the young lady like small companies. Unfortunately, big companies don't like you."
Mi Qing: "..."
Probably feeling that Mi Qing was being bullied, Husky put down his dog food and ran over to comfort her: "Wow."
It wagged its tail at Mi Qing, and Mi Qing felt a surge of emotion, thinking that if she had known about the instant noodles just now, she would have given it some.
She stroked its dog's head: "Goudan, you are much better than some beastly humans."
Xiao Gu pushed away the huskies who were still huddling in: "I've said it all, his name is Xiaotiangou... Are you not afraid of dogs now?"
Mi Qing also realized this problem, and said in a daze, "I just don't seem to be afraid of it."
Xiao Gu drove the dog back to eat dog food, and asked casually, "Have you been bitten by a dog before?"
Mi Qing said: "I was scared by a dog, when I was very young." She still remembers the fierce eyes and loud barking, "But then someone helped me drive the dog away."
Xiao Gu turned his head and looked at her with a playful look in his eyes: "Judging from your tone, the one who saved you must be a boy."
Mi Qing wanted to roll her eyes again: "A brother who is older than me."
Xiao Gu said: "Then you secretly agreed?" He laughed, "You little girls are really easy to deceive."
Mi Qing glared at him dissatisfied, and then said: "He is my hero."
