Chapter 004: New Interview

Du Guanglin was completely at a loss, and could only stand up in frustration. As he left Chuangyuan, the receptionist at the front desk still wore a sweet smile, but in Du Guanglin's eyes at that moment, it had lost all the charm it had when he arrived

It seems that I can no longer limit my focus to my own field; it is necessary to try other industries. With a sense of helplessness, Du Guanglin sighed. He studied a two-year design program at university, and previously, most of the resumes he submitted were for designer positions at advertising companies. Now it appears that if he cannot find a job, he will have to consider working as a network administrator or a waiter, after all, he still needs to eat

After the middle-aged man took the resume, he first glanced over it quickly, then raised his head in confusion and asked, "Are you a recent graduate?"

Chuangyuan Advertising, located at the southern end of Weipei Road in Hecheng, in the Guanghe Building, is considered a high-end office building of considerable prestige in Hecheng. Companies that can establish their presence here are generally of significant scale. Chuangyuan Advertising is also one of the more renowned large companies in the advertising industry in Hecheng. It holds a very high status within the industry, and this entire nine-story building houses only this one advertising company

He smiled and gestured to a few men and women he saw, but Du Guanglin did not say much. He chose to sit at the end of the line and waited for more than twenty minutes. After the few people in front of him went in and came out with a picture book, he straightened his clothes again, knocked on the door, and walked in.

"Oh, I see. You just need to follow this road straight ahead..." The receptionist was taken aback for a moment, then once again displayed a sweet smile, becoming even more enthusiastic in helping Du Guanglin with directions

I ... ... '' Du Guanglin wanted to say something more, but was directly interrupted by the other party.

It is like this: after seeing your company's recruitment information online, I came directly... Du Guanglin naturally knew this, but still wanted to give it a try

Numerous articles of clothing and miscellaneous items were also tidied up. At first glance, it was indeed a refreshing sight, to the extent that Du Guanglin momentarily doubted whether he had entered the wrong room. Although he was not particularly untidy, he certainly had never been this meticulous about maintaining cleanliness.

After expressing his gratitude, Du Guanglin quickly arrived outside the Human Resources Department according to the route. At this moment, three or four young men and women were already seated in the corridor outside, waiting.

In the following hour or so, Du Guanglin hurriedly compiled three job openings in the design industry and two in other lower-tier professions. After some consideration, he decided to stop submitting his resume online and instead opted to deliver printed copies of his resume in person.

The exterior design of the ninth floor where Chuangyuan is located is quite impressive. Upon exiting the elevator, one first encounters a deliberately carved water pool in front, flowing with clear freshwater. Directly in front of the entrance, there is a gracefully arched bridge. Surrounding this are miniature rockeries, pebbles, and occasionally a few goldfish swimming beneath the bridge, creating a truly delightful scene at first glance

The two values outside of middle age, mental state, are -0.2, and vitality, -0.7

He is a man who appears very handsome and composed, exuding the mature beauty of middle age. Dressed in a neat suit paired with shiny black leather shoes, beneath a close-cropped hairstyle lies a face that, although somewhat haggard, still radiates vitality.

Next!

His first target remains the designers in the advertising industry. If these three do not work out, it is not too late to try others.

Here, Du Guanglin hurriedly handed over his resume and then followed the other party's instructions to sit upright on a chair in front of the desk

This matter, once it has passed, is best left behind. It is advisable to first check if there are any responses to the resumes that have been sent out. When I have earned some money, I will express my gratitude to her then. The next moment, Du Guanglin began to walk towards the computer desk

After waiting for a minute or two, an elevator finally stopped on the ninth floor. When the doors opened, Du Guanglin walked in with his head down, glancing up to observe a figure inside the elevator. Although he was not in a good mood, it had almost become his newly formed habit to scrutinize the visible numerical data of every person he could see in such a short span of half a day.

"Please take a seat." In an air-conditioned office, a middle-aged man in his forties was sitting behind a spacious and clean desk. He slightly nodded to Du Guanglin before speaking, "Your resume."

"I said you can leave." The middle-aged man, however, grew even more impatient and waved his hand dismissively. In his heart, he began to curse softly, this foolish bird, didn't he see that the recruitment advertisement from Chuangyuan stated that only experienced designers were being hired? Moreover, even if they made an exception to recruit a few fresh graduates, they would definitely have to be from prestigious universities or have connections. Yet this guy's resume indicated that he graduated from a second or third-tier vocational college in Hecheng.

Soon, the search yielded results, yet the resumes sent out remained unanswered.

"What the hell, it's still a well-known big company, why is their attitude so poor?" Standing in front of the elevator, Du Guanglin finally couldn't help but let out a low curse

The receptionists at large companies are indeed often quite attractive, and the one before me is no exception. A sweet smile from her made Du Guanglin feel a bit shy, but he quickly stepped forward and said, "Hello, I am here to apply for the designer position. Could you please tell me where I should go?"

Yes. Du Guanglin stood at hetushu.com, nodding his head, "Although I am a recent graduate, my learning ability..."

Regarding one's place of origin, being from a rural household in the Lower River Province has no connection whatsoever to the provincial capital of Hecheng. This means that there are no personal networks or resources to draw upon. For such individuals, it is indeed a matter of indifference to even engage in a brief conversation, let alone ask the other party to wait for further notice.

After hastily arriving at Chuangyuan, Du Guanglin took a moment to admire the captivating scenery with some surprise. He then straightened his attire and walked towards the glass door behind the arch bridge. Upon pushing open the glass door, he found a neatly arranged and pleasant reception area. A receptionist, dressed in a light gray uniform skirt, with long hair tied back and a sweet appearance, immediately stood up and greeted Du Guanglin with a gentle smile, "Hello, may I ask who you are looking for"

You may leave now. However, the middle-aged man did not give him a chance to speak at all; he directly changed his expression, put down the resume, and pointed towards the door.

Strange, with a spirit value of -0.7, that's almost like being dead, yet this person is still lively and taking the elevator. After laughing, Du Guanglin walked to the back corner of the elevator, pondering while secretly glancing at the middle-aged man a couple of steps away.

In the end, Du Guanglin did not think much of it; after unlocking the door with the key, he entered the room. However, the state of the room startled him. The summer thin quilt, which had originally been haphazardly piled in a corner by the head of the bed, was now neatly folded and placed in the center of the head of the bed. Moreover, the floor of the room was spotless.

I recall that our company's recruitment information stated that only design professionals with work experience would be hired? At that moment, a middle-aged individual interrupted Du Guanglin's self-recommendation, casting a skeptical glance.

Opportunity? The middle-aged man was taken aback for a moment, then he smiled and gave Du Guanglin a few scrutinizing glances before coldly saying, "Next!"

Ah? I..." Du Guanglin was taken aback and hurriedly spoke again

Upon seeing this, Du Guanglin's steps suddenly halted. One foot was inside the elevator while the other was outside. He stared intently at the person for a moment, and only when he noticed a clear expression of impatience on the other person's face did Du Guanglin awkwardly force a smile before stepping into the elevator

"Can you give me a chance? I believe I can do the design well." Although the other party's attitude was extremely poor, Du Guanglin was still unwilling to give up. After experiencing continuous rejections for half a month, he no longer cared much about the attitude of the person in front of him, even though this was, by far, the worst attitude he had encountered in an interviewer over the past half month

He chuckled softly and shook his head in amusement. Du Guanglin suddenly felt a warmth rising within him, along with an impulse to go upstairs and thank He Lili. However, given the somewhat awkward situation between the two, it did not seem appropriate, so he quickly suppressed that thought.
