Chapter 2 Finding a job

(2) Find a job

East West Group is an international investment bank that provides a wide range of investment, advisory and financial services to many countries, with clients in a wide range of industries, including private companies, financial firms, government agencies and individuals. Headquartered in New York, it entered the Chinese market in the late eighties. The Group's core leaders agreed that China is the most potential partner in the Asia-Pacific region and should be the focus of global business development.

Qiu Yan has been working in the city for seven years, and last week became an ordinary employee of Huamei Group, working as a receptionist. Although this is not an important position, it is a hard-won "pie" for Qiu Yan.

On that day, as a hostess, she attended the friendship event of Huamei Group and another well-known Chinese company, and stood politely at the door to greet the guests. After the event began, all the guests entered, and the welcome ladies who had been standing for an hour could rest. Qiu Yan was about to go back to his room to change clothes, when a car stopped at the door of the hotel, and the young man who was late to the hotel looked down to check the contents of the document bag as he walked, and almost hit Qiu Yan.

Qiu Yan had to remind: "Sir, is there anything you need help with?" ”

The young man raised his head, looked at Qiu Yan who was close at hand, and was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "I'm sorry, I haven't looked at the document that the leader asked for just now." You are the hostess of this hotel, can you take me to Lanxuan? ”

Qiu Yan nodded and said, "Okay sir, please come with me." ”

The young man talked to Qiu Yan as he walked, "My name is Han Fei, and I am the secretary of the senior general manager of Huamei Group, what do you call the girl?" ”

Qiu Yan smiled sideways and replied, "Qiu Yan." Huamei Group is hard to get into, right? I heard it was a Sino-US joint venture. ”

Han Fei smiled and nodded, "Well, the recruitment conditions are quite harsh, in fact, it will be like that after entering." However, because Lao Mei is the president, the requirements for English are relatively high. How well do you speak English? ”

Qiu Yan blushed and said, "It's okay, I don't say it often, but I can understand it." ”

Han Fei: "Our group is looking for a receptionist, du you have interest?" (Our group is recruiting for reception, are you interested?) οΌ‰

Qiu Yan smiled: "Of course. But I don’t have a college job ,can I ?” (Sure, but can I not have a college diploma?) οΌ‰

Han Fei looked at Qiu Yan in surprise, "I didn't expect Miss Qiu to be not only beautiful, but also speak English so well." I think as long as you have no problem with English, you can do a good job at the front desk. I'll ask Mr. Gao in a moment, do you have a phone? ”

Qiu Yan shook his head and said shyly, "I just lost my phone, and I haven't bought a new one yet." ”

Han Fei smiled indifferently: "Oh, this is my business card, you call me tonight, and I will give you the exact news." ”

Qiu Yanru took Han Fei's business card and thanked him repeatedly, Han Fei smiled and said, "Miss Qiu doesn't have to be so polite." ”

Qiu Yan took Han Fei to Lanxuan and left happily.

After getting off work that day, she used the money she saved to buy a plum-colored mobile phone, pinching her shriveled wallet, Qiu Yan felt up and down, "I have spent most of my savings for half a year, and if I can't apply, I will really lose...... But if I apply, won't I be the same as a college student? If I ask more questions and learn more diligently, I shouldn't be worse than them, right? The reception work at the front desk should not be very difficult, I want to be confident, to be confident! Bodhisattva bless, please Huamei Group give me a chance! I will work hard not to disappoint the leader......" She prayed as she walked, absentmindedly finished her meal, and counted the time until nine o'clock in the evening. She thought that Han Fei should have finished getting off work, so she took out Han Fei's business card and dialed the phone with anxiety.

"Hey, hello, who?" Han Fei's voice sounded cold and impatient.

Qiu Yan chuckled in his heart, and said stubbornly: "Hello Mr. Han, I am Qiu Yan......"

"Oh, Miss Qiu, you are really good at pinching time, I just got home and thought I was going out to be busy again, I was upset, don't mind. You go to the company tomorrow morning to apply, I asked Sister Wang in the personnel department, she asked you to go to the company at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. ”

Qiu Yan listened to Han Fei's calm voice and was overjoyed, and inevitably thanked Han Fei again, making Han Fei amused, and said with a smile: "Miss Qiu, you really don't have to be so polite, I seem to be going to cry happily when I hear your voice, the reception at the front desk is not a good job, you really want to enter Huamei so much?" ”

Qiu Yan smiled embarrassedly, "Mr. Han's education must be very high, right?" You don't know how difficult it is for those of us who don't have a degree to get into a good company. ”

Han Fei thought about it and seemed to vaguely understand Qiu Yan's mood, "Okay, Miss Qiu, I wish you good luck tomorrow!" Is this your mobile number? ”

Qiu Yan: "Yes, it took half a year's savings to call you conveniently. ”

Han Fei smiled: "Well, let you break the bank, tomorrow no matter whether you apply successfully or not, I will invite you to dinner at noon." ”

Qiu Yan said unexpectedly, "I'll invite you, thank you for helping me." ”

"Aren't you just spending half a year of savings and feeling distressed, I invite you to have a good meal to comfort your stomach that is about to be tortured." Han Fei's voice was still very warm when she laughed.

Qiu Yan thanked him embarrassedly, hurriedly hung up the phone, touched his hot face and ears, and said to himself regretfully: "Why should I say that I spent half a year of savings to buy a mobile phone, and dug a hole for myself!" He must have guessed that I was lying, I didn't have a mobile phone at all for half a year...... I'm stupid! ”

Qiu Yan was not so poor, mainly because she didn't do a good job in her previous job and threw all her hard-earned money in the past few years.

Her first job outside the home was sales, selling clothes in a store. Because Qiu Yan is not very good at sales, his salary is barely enough to make ends meet. Later, I heard that I had rented a shop to sell clothes, and I had accumulated experience by going out early and returning late, and the business had just improved, Qiu Yan was very interested in redecorating the small shop, but the business was renovated in less than a month, and the landlord wanted to take back the store, not to mention the date of quitting the rent. Qiu Yan, a weak woman, could not compete with a landlord like a snake, so she had to hastily sell the clothes in stock at a lower price.

The house leak happened to rain overnight, Qiu Yan soaked the clothes with the mobile phone in the washbasin filled with water in exhaustion, and only realized it after waking up. Of course, the phone was scrapped, and she sighed and sighed for a long time.

The next day's application was very smooth, daily English Q&A, phone calls and other Qiu Yan's performance without any mistakes, coupled with her own good external image and temperament, Manager Wang of the personnel department did not make it difficult in terms of academic qualifications, and went through the entry procedures for Qiu Yan at that time.

At noon, Qiu Yan called Han Fei, Han Fei first congratulated her on her successful entry, and apologized that he had to accompany Mr. Gao to socialize at noon, and he didn't have time to invite Qiu Yan to dinner, so he owed another day. Qiu Yan said with relief: "Okay, okay, it's okay, you're busy." ”

Qiu Yan lives an 8-to-5 life, she is very satisfied with her current job and full of hope for the future.
