It was very unfortunate on the day he returned to the National Commercial Bank for an interview, it was still clear when he went out, but when he came out of the subway, there was already a light rain outside.

Fortunately, the rain was not heavy, it was as thin as a layer of mist, and Yu Gui sped up his pace and walked to the Trump Tower, where the National Commercial Bank was located, and his body was only slightly wet.

Trump Tower is also a landmark in Midtown Manhattan, New York, with 68 floors tall and towering into the sky, even on the Isle of Man, which is known for its high-rise buildings.

Yu Gui is going to the twentieth floor today, which is the floor where the National Commercial Bank is located.

After confirming the identity at the front desk, the security guard opened the door for him, and when he took the elevator up, there was already a person from the human resources department waiting at the elevator entrance.

There was a circle of computers on the table in the conference room, and Yu Gui knew that this was the first thing to do for the network test, so he picked a nearby seat and sat down, and it seemed that he was the only one to come to the interview today.

The network test time is a total of 80 minutes, divided into three parts, and the specific content to be examined is similar to the network test of other companies done before Yu Gui, but there are differences in specific topics.

This part was not difficult for him, and it took Yu Gui less than forty minutes to complete.

The next step is an interview conducted by a representative from the Human Resources Department.

The one who gave him back was the young woman who had just led him in, dressed in a black professional uniform and dressed very capably, her expression and tone were very official, and she looked like she had been specially trained in this direction.

She talked to Yu Gui about some basic questions, the main purpose of which was to examine the candidate's comprehensive qualities and grasp basic information, including salary expectations and so on.

Yu Gui couldn't infer her satisfaction with herself from her consistently undulating tone, but he felt that his answer was relatively smooth.

And when it comes to the last part, it is to go directly to the interview with the people in the department, and then it is time to start testing the professional skills.

In his past experience, he had only met three interviewers at most, and today he couldn't help but be a little surprised when he was ushered into that office, a small office was filled with six people. Three of them were sitting at the back of the desk, and three others were sitting by the wall with a piece of paper in their hands, and as soon as Yu Gui entered the door, their eyes shot at each other, making Yu Gui look a little nervous.

"Neal, please be seated." The Chinese who spoke was sitting in the middle behind the desk, he first introduced himself, it turned out to be the big boss of this department, and then everyone else probably talked about the field he was responsible for and the work he did, so he listened and memorized.

After the introduction, the second boss who sat on the left hand side of the desk began to ask questions, and the others added or added questions, while the big boss just listened and did not interject much.

Yu Gui was still a little nervous at first, but gradually, because they asked questions related to his major, he answered very fluently, and he relaxed a little.

After about twenty minutes, the second boss finally asked almost everything they wanted to ask, and the second boss glanced at the big boss, who nodded and said to the person sitting next to the door, "Call David in." ”

The man answered and went out, and after a while there was a knock at the door, and through the door came a tall man, dressed in a white shirt and black suit pants, with a good figure, and he rolled up both sleeves above his elbows, revealing his slender forearms, and looked a little casual.

Yu Gui couldn't help but glance at him more, but his eyes just collided with this person, he smiled at Yu Gui and turned his head to the big boss and said, "Eric, did you call me?" ”

"I'll let you help, let's see if this newcomer is suitable to stay here." The big boss half-jokingly said, "We have already asked some questions just now, and there is no problem with the level." But because if he's going to stay, he's going to follow you to do the maths, so you'll see if there's anything else you need him to master. ”

"I see." David nodded, looked back at Yu Gui, smiled and said, "I don't have anything to ask, the main technical difficulty of doing numbers is focused on programming, to see if you can accurately and efficiently implement the functions we need." In this way, you can write me a piece of code in R language, and write the most basic functions, from the extraction of numbers to the calculation of basic statistics and the drawing of basic analysis graphs, with a time limit of five minutes, and you can write as much as you want. ”

This request seems to be very arbitrary, but Yu Gui already knows that the programming level of this person named David is definitely not low. It's very effective to test his proficiency in R in this way, R has so many functions and statements, you have to know what is the most basic first, and then you have to write as much as possible within the time limit without making mistakes, which is quite challenging.

Yu Gui took a deep breath, walked to the whiteboard and picked up the marker, and after a little bit of thought, he started to write, writing for five minutes, without even a pause of more than a second in between.

"It's time." When David said this, Yu Gui immediately stopped, feeling his wrists sore.

"Not bad, not bad." David stared at the board with a smile on the corner of his mouth, looked at it for a few more seconds before turning to the big boss and the second boss and said, "I have no opinion." ”

Yu Gui breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

In fact, while he was writing just now, David took the board eraser and wiped him clean after he finished writing, making room for him. The speed of the two of them is almost the same, which proves that David has already judged whether what he wrote is right or wrong the moment he writes it, and his proficiency can be seen.

At this time, the big boss and the second boss first talked in a low voice, and then the big boss raised his head and looked at Yu Gui and said: "Neal, I have worked hard for you today, the interview has ended, and we still need to unify our opinions with the human resources department before we can make a decision on whether to hire or not, and we will give you an answer within about five working days." ”

"Okay, thank you." Yu Gui bent down slightly.

"You're welcome," the big boss said with a smile, "David, then please take Neal out, we'll discuss it for a while." ”

"Okay." David said that he had opened the door of the office, and motioned for Yu Gui to go first, Yu Gui was not polite, and after nodding with the others, he went out first, and David also followed him out of the door.

"You're pretty good." As soon as the door closed, David suddenly changed to Chinese and said to Gui.

The interview was in English for the whole time, and Yu Gui paused for a moment before he also turned to Chinese and answered: "It's nothing, just learning this." ”

"You don't have to be modest, I can see that." David smiled, led Yu Gui to the elevator and asked as he walked, "I saw your resume just now, are you an undergraduate at Columbia University?" ”

"Hmm."

"Did you graduate?"

"Not yet, I will graduate in May next year."

"Oh, no wonder you look so young." At this time, they had just walked to the elevator, David reached out and pressed the down button, and then his hand did not come back, and he stretched out directly to Yu Gui and said: "Let's get to know me, my name is Dai Siming, Berkeley's undergraduate, Columbia's master's degree in actuarial science, we should be regarded as alumni." ”

"Then you're my senior." Yu Gui also stretched out his hand and shook his hand, "My name is Yu Gui." ”

"Return? The name is very cultural as soon as you hear it. Dai Siming had a joking look on his face, but his voice was very serious. He saw that the elevator had come up, so he smiled at Gui friendly again and said, "Is it convenient to leave your contact information?" I just graduated in May this year, and I still live at Columbia University, so we can have dinner and chat together when we have the opportunity in the future. ”

"yes, okay." Yu Gui took out his mobile phone as he spoke, but when he entered the phone number, he suddenly thought of Yan Shu.

Remembering Yan Shu's flushed and embarrassed look when he asked him for his phone number for the first time, it was obvious that he had been entangled for a long time before asking, and Yu Gui felt like laughing.

"What comes to mind? Mood is so good. Dai Siming suddenly asked.

Yu Gui came back to his senses and paused, shook his head and said, "It's nothing, then I'll go first, and I'll contact you when I have time." ”

Dai Siming smiled and nodded, watched Yu Gui walk into the elevator, and watched the elevator door slowly close before turning to leave.

And at this moment, Yu Gui's heart somehow felt a little delicate.

Probably even he didn't realize that when he thought of Yan Shu just now, there was a rather warm look in his eyes inadvertently, and if it wasn't for Dai Siming's words, he wouldn't have paid attention to it at all.

That shouldn't be a sign of anything......

"--Yu Gui?!" When Yan Shu's voice suddenly drilled into his ears, Yu Gui's first reaction was that he was hallucinating.

Apparently, though, he didn't have auditory hallucinations.

Because Yan Shu, a big living person, was standing in front of him now, looking at him with a look of surprise.

Yu Gui had just stepped down to the first floor and walked out of the elevator at this time, and he didn't want to meet Yan Shu face to face. Yu Gui felt very weird, especially when he was thinking about Yan Shu in his heart.

Silently sighed again in his heart about the probability of their chance encounter, Yu Gui settled down before asking, "Why are you here?" ”

The surprise on Yan Shu's face was still there, the corners of his mouth were raised in a big arc, and he stared at Yu Gui intently and said, "I just happened to come to see my friend today, are you here for an interview?" ”

"Well, it just ended." Yu Gui may have been in a good mood just now because the interview form was not bad, so he took the initiative to say to Yan Shu: "Are you about to find someone or have you already finished meeting?" I'm going back to school, do you want to go along? ”

"Okay, together!" Yan Shu's eyes had already bent into two sleek arcs, and he nodded quickly and said in flattery: "I'll go with you!" I've seen people! ”

Yu Gui couldn't help but slightly raise the corners of his lower lip when he saw him being so active, but the amplitude was so small that it was almost invisible.

"Let's go, let's take Line N and then go to Times Square and then transfer to Line 1?" Yu Gui asked Yan Shu for advice.

Yan Shu was happy and did not express any objections.

Seeing this, Yu Gui turned around and walked to the door first, while Yan Shu took advantage of Yu Gui's inattention, and quickly secretly stuffed the car key that he had been holding in the palm of his hand since just now into his trouser pocket.

After stuffing, Yan Shu snickered contentedly, and then caught up with Yu Gui with brisk steps and walked out of the building with him.
