Chapter 19: Farewell
On Wednesday, Jack emailed his Shanghai team, "Friday is Yu Qi's Last Day, so everyone will see her off at noon FarewellLunch." The various reports that everyone owes in hand must be given to Yu Qi within these two days.
Finally, I would like to thank Yu Qi for her contribution to the sales department in the past three months. ”
After seeing the email, Yu Qi was very moved, she didn't expect Jack to give her such a little intern a farewell party. Of course, it is more of a reluctance to this sales family.
There is no feast in the world that will not be dispersed. Parting is for goodbye!
Same restaurant, same tables, same people, the same day I joined three months ago. It's just that the theme of today's dinner is completely opposite.
"Thank you for seeing me off today, it's a pleasure to meet you, and thank you brothers and sisters for their tolerance and support in my work." Yu Qi raised the Sprite in the glass and saluted everyone. "Special thanks to the owner for his guidance and help." She turned to Jack and thanked him sincerely.
Yu Qi turned his head to drink the cup of Sprite in his hand, and the other quietly brushed away the tears in his eyes. She was reluctant to let everyone go. When she was a child, she preferred not to be together in order not to be separated.
But now, Rao is in his previous life, as HR, he has experienced so many farewells, and now that it is his turn, he still can't control his sadness.
"Ah, little Kiki, don't leave if you can't help it. Anyway, studying is also for work, you see Bill Gates, Zuckerberg, Jobs, which awesome person didn't drop out of school halfway. "Big Mouth" sales Wang Dali saw Yu Qi crying, and couldn't help but persuade her, hoping to temporarily divert her attention. At the same time, it is also in front of colleagues, showing off his erudition.
"Nonsense, that's in the United States, in ****, in the magic capital! Will this work? It's a fundamentally different system! A saleswoman interjected, "Kiki, don't listen to his nonsense." I heard my sister say, in our ****, reading is a shortcut for ordinary children to become talents! ”
"Well, I understand. Thank you. Yu Qi was amused by Wang Dali's disguised Hong Kong and Taiwan accent. Thinking of helping Wang Dali print on his business card before, and seeing the English name "DaliWong" on it, I felt that this man's attempt to pretend to be a person from Hong Kong and Taiwan was too clumsy. Now it seems that there is still a cute side to him.
Most salespeople are used to this kind of scene: for highly liquid sales, they can eat an average of two casual meals a month.
There are two reasons for the sale to leave. It's not the salary given by the company that makes people feel aggrieved and take the initiative to leave; It's that the company dislikes the poor performance and asks him to leave. Anyway, if you leave, there is also a chance to cooperate.
It can only be said that the current Chinese market is developing too fast, while the European and American markets are shrinking too fast. The whole world is looking at China and investing the resources it has most at its disposal into the mainland market. I'm afraid of missing a pot of gold. As a result, the local talent supply is clearly unable to keep up with the increasing demand for talent.
If there are only 80 mature talents in the market, how can we meet the demand for the 100 vacated positions? Therefore, everyone can only poach people from their peers, and these people are always jumping around in foreign companies.
"Last week I got a call from a headhunter in my seat." Wang Dali showed up again. "Encouraged me to change jobs, saying that they would give me a 50% salary increase. But I refused, and I said I couldn't bear us Jack. Hehe. When he had finished showing his loyalty, he looked at Jack and waited for Jack's praise like a child waiting for candy.
Seeing that Jack didn't say anything, he continued, "If you want to say that the headhunters are really good now, hit me in my seat, and call me Mr. Wang." You say, is there an undercover agent of a headhunting company in our company? How else would she know the number of my landline? You say, don't you? Seeing that no one answered, he tentatively said, "I guess she called each of you too, right?" What are you afraid of, say it, and we can let the leader know the situation, right? The person who says it will definitely not leave. Every time I submit my resignation report, I am the one who usually keeps silent. Right, Jack? ”
Jack couldn't do anything about his fierce pursuit, and it seemed that if he didn't say anything, he would keep chasing. I could only smile at him helplessly and answer.
Salespeople usually spend time with their customers, and it is not easy to get together and exchange some information. Now seeing that Jack is not explicitly forbidden, they are discussing the current market situation together, and they no longer care about Jack on the side.
Jack thought to himself, it looks like I'm going to have to talk to HR in the afternoon: the company's employee information is too unconfidential! It's not easy to find a good sale right now. Subordinates can be customers in a down-to-earth manner, and it would be good if they don't take the initiative to go out to find another high branch, but now they are bombarded by headhunters in turn, constantly tempted. There are a few sales that can resist the temptation of profit again and again.
In the face of their requirements for recruitment and talent protection, HR often requires bosses to move people with personal development and retain people with work content from the perspective of "retention". People who are optimistic about themselves!
In fact, the company's HR has set up obstacles for the hunters in the company.
First of all, the telephone list that was previously printed was canceled, so as not to be given to headhunters as favors; Then, the department phone list of all employees on the company's shared disk was deleted, and the phone number of each person looking for contacts through the company's Outlook system was changed; Finally, it is stipulated that the front desk must ask the other party to report the correct name and department of the employee before the call can be transferred.
Despite this, the HR department, almost every HR direct line, will also receive calls from different veterans. Some people want to cooperate and establish a cooperative relationship between buying and selling talents. Some people just want to dig HR and go.
Senior HR with industry experience is also a scarce resource in the talent market.
It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married - in the face of employees who insist on leaving, HR and bosses can only let him go.
The people that the real enterprise wants to keep cannot be poached. Because the company will provide an attractive development platform and salary, as well as a well-planned personal development path. Therefore, such employees naturally have a "psychological contract" with the company.
For smart people, the method of changing jobs after two or three years of working in each company will certainly rise faster in salary and position. But after 8 years of work, this method of achieving short-term effects will have a side effect: these "professional fleas" who cannot bear the loneliness and poverty in the market will encounter a glass ceiling. No company dares to take on the task because the boss has no confidence in their "loyalty".
At this time, those who are down-to-earth in the company and grow up step by step will quickly enter the development channel - promoted to manager and director. This kind of person belongs to the example of "great wisdom and foolishness".
Yu Qi suddenly saw a boy walking on the opposite side who was very familiar, who was he? She just raised her hand to say hello, but found that people didn't know her at all, so she walked straight back.
The salesperson next to her saw her move and asked her strangely what was wrong?
"Oh, I think I just recognized the wrong person." Yu Qi's face was red again, she was a little ashamed of her self-inflicted sentimentality just now, and she was worried that she would be mistaken for a nymphomaniac by her colleagues.
In fact, in this world, everyone only cares about people and things related to themselves, and who cares when she makes any strange moves?
For the next meal, Yu Qi was very worried. I obviously felt that the person I met just now was very familiar, but I couldn't remember who it was. And why did he see her with the same expression as if he was seeing a stranger?
Could it be that the man had amnesia? Or maybe you have amnesia? Yu Qi felt that her sudden idea was ridiculous.
Then I thought that since M could bring him back to his college days, there must be a way to find out where this person came from. She decides to call M at night.
