Chapter 289: Internship Work
The first batch of stores is planned to open 100 stores, and each of these main stores with an area of more than 2,000 square meters is a huge investment.
These 100 stores are distributed in more than 30 first- and second-tier cities across the country.
In order to ensure the smooth opening, the people in the company are basically dispatched, except for Liu Xinya, who is in charge of the company and coordinates more than 30 decoration companies in more than 30 cities across the country.
The reserve store managers who came out of the first phase of training have also been sent to various stores to supervise the decoration on site.
A store of Preferred Premium is really equivalent to an ordinary small company. On average, with an investment of more than 10 million yuan (including decoration costs and goods costs), the clerks are more than 30 people.
A store manager here, with dozens of people under his command, is expected to reach tens of millions, or even tens of millions, in monthly sales!
"Ah Hong, the store hasn't opened yet, why do I feel so nervous now, investing in such a big store, and leaving it to the two of us to manage?" Lu Xiaoxue said worriedly.
"What is there to be afraid of, since the company dares to open so many stores at once, and appoints us as the store manager and deputy store manager, it must be certain. Do you think the company leaders will be stupider than us?" Xiao Hong said nonchalantly.
Xiao Hong and Lu Xiaoxue, after the assessment of the training center, were appointed as the acting manager and deputy manager of the Yangcheng Tianhe City Center Store.
Xiao Hong is the deputy store manager, acting store manager, and Lu Xiaoxue is her deputy.
These two old classmates were lucky enough to work together again after graduation.
This store has two floors, with a total area of more than 2,600 square meters, and the store has as many as 40 employees!
Everyone is a newcomer who has just left school, and suddenly they have to manage dozens of people, Lu Xiaoxue is a little unconfident. But Xiao Hong has a big personality, and she has been very excited since she was appointed as the acting store manager.
Yangcheng is a first-tier city, so the salary standard here is relatively high, the basic salary of ordinary clerks is 3,500 yuan, the deputy store manager is 6,000 yuan, and the store manager is 9,000 yuan.
All positions are paid for performance, depending on the overall performance of the store, as well as customer satisfaction.
If the store is performing well and customer satisfaction is high, then everyone's performance pay will be high.
On the contrary, if the sales of the store are relatively poor, or there are more customer complaints, then don't think about performance pay.
In short, the concept that the company instills in everyone is that a store is a whole, and more than 40 people are a team.
In the best products, pay attention to teamwork!
With such a large store, no matter how strong you are alone, how far can you go? Therefore, everyone must work together to push the performance of the entire store up.
Xiao Hong and Lu Xiaoxue, who have just graduated, are at the level of deputy store managers, and their basic salary is 6,000 yuan. And Xiao Hong is also acting as the store manager, if there is nothing wrong during the three-month assessment period, he will officially serve as the store manager after three months, and the basic salary will be 9,000.
For vocational school graduates like them, this income is very good.
Therefore, after being assigned to Yangcheng by the company, although the store has just been renovated, it has not officially started business. But Xiao Hong and all the employees have already entered the working state.
There is a lot of work to be done before the store opens.
For such a large store, just the display is a big project, and it is even more tiring than actually starting to open for business.
……
It is now the beginning of August, and the unified opening time of Wang Ye's plan is around August 15th.
Because the TV commercials arranged and the title "Run, Brother" all started to be broadcast in those days.
Originally, it was summer vacation time, but Nie Xiaoying did not come back this year, she will graduate next year, and she found a job internship by herself this summer.
Born in a family like Nie Xiaoying, she naturally doesn't need to think about work after graduating from college, she is an only daughter and must go home to inherit the family business.
Nie Xiaoying is not the kind of rebellious young man, she didn't think about being free or anything, she majored in business management in college, which is to prepare for the succession in the future.
So her internship, of course, is not for salary, but to consider what kind of company to intern to train herself.
In fact, this question is very simple, and the seniors in her school have already given the answer, that is, to enter the four major consulting companies!
Here are four of the world's most famous consulting and management firms, McKinsey, Boston, Bain and Deloitte!
McKinsey & Company, one of the world's most famous management consulting firms, occupies a very important position in the consulting industry, and is also synonymous with the lofty level of consultants.
McKinsey & Company was founded in 1926 in the United States by Professor James McKinsey, who also ushered in a new era of modern management consulting.
Today, McKinsey is one of the world's most renowned management consulting firms, with 84 branches or offices in 44 countries around the world.
Its practice is primarily to provide strategic advice, but it also covers a wide range of consulting areas and management topics including corporate finance, business technology and operations. With years of expertise in the financial industry, we help clients solve increasingly complex business challenges.
……
The Boston Consulting Group, founded in 1963, is one of the world's leading business strategy consulting firms and one of the world's top four consulting firms.
With 81 offices in 45 countries, it is a leader in strategic management consulting, and its clients are not changing from country to country.
Boston helps their clients identify the most valuable growth opportunities, address critical challenges, and help them transform their businesses.
Its main customers around the world are large corporations, including fast-growing medium-sized companies that are constantly breaking new ground in their industry.
……
Bain & Company was founded in 1973 and headquartered in Boston, and its main founder, William Bain, spent his early years at the Boston Consulting Group.
In 1973, Bain and several consultants left the Boston firm to form Bain & Company.
The company's main business areas include: strategic decision-making, e-commerce strategy, customer relations, business growth, business operation management optimization, supply chain management, organization and change management, mergers and acquisitionsBain believes that providing customers with services based on experience to beat competitors and achieve more returns.

……
Deloitte Consulting is one of the world's top consulting firms, and the company is involved in strategy and operations, human resources consulting, technology consulting and other business sectors.
Deloitte Consulting has offices around the world in industries such as consumer goods, manufacturing, communications and media, financial services, pharmaceuticals, education and healthcare, and public utilities.
……
These four consulting firms are all well-known and world-renowned.
However, Nie Xiaoying is a top student at Harvard, since she wants to choose, she must choose the best, McKinsey & Company!
The salary of consulting companies is really high, and newcomers who have just graduated and joined the company can get an annual salary of more than $150,000 at McKinsey.
But many people choose to work in this industry, not for the treatment. Elites who really want to get a high salary will choose investment banking or the Internet industry better.
If you ask the consultants in the consulting firms why they chose this industry, the answer is much the same.
"I feel like this industry is interesting!"
"Loved the sense of accomplishment of solving problems. ”
"I just graduated and don't know what industry I am suitable for, so I will work as a consultant for two years first, and I can broaden my horizons by getting in touch with various industries. ”
"I'm tired of doing my job, I need to be challenged!"
……
No one answered that it was for the high salary, and in the consulting industry, the lower limit of the salary package is high, but the upper limit is not high.
And if the salary is calculated on an hourly basis, it has no advantage over other industries. This is an industry that relies on crazy overtime to get a high salary.
No one replied that it was for power, because the role played by the consulting industry is that of the client's "master" or "consultant".
……
Before sending the cover letter, Nie Xiaoying asked her senior sister, who had interned at McKinsey, if there were any things to pay attention to.
The senior sister said without hesitation: "The most important thing to go to McKinsey is that your physical fitness should be good!"
Nie Xiaoying asked in surprise: "It's just going to work, and it's not doing manual work, what does it have to do with physical fitness?"
The senior sister smiled slightly, did not explain, just said that she would know when she joined the company.
Harvard's signboard is still hard enough, not to mention that she just voted for the intern position, and McKinsey happily sent an offer after receiving Nie Xiaoying's cover letter.
After Nie Xiaoying's final exam, she went to report on her employment.
After she actually got to work, she finally understood why her senior sister said that working here would improve her physical fitness.
She joined an advisory group of four people. One of them is a project manager, two consultants, and the other is Nie Xiaoying, an intern.
As soon as she completed the entry procedures, the project manager came to her with a stack of materials: "Emily, in two days, read all these materials, pay attention, even if you have read them, you have to understand them! The day after tomorrow, we will set off to do this project." ”
Emily is Nie Xiaoying's English name, studying and working in Laomei, of course, she has to follow the local customs and give her an English name.
Mick, the project manager, was a white man in his early thirties, tall, muscular, and looked like a football player.
Looking at the thick stack of materials with more than a dozen books, Nie Xiaoying was dumbfounded.
With so much information, can you read it in two days?
But there is no way, the leaders have ordered it down, so let's play and see.
So, in the past two days, Nie Xiaoying only slept for three hours a day, and the rest of the time was used to read information except for eating.
