14. Interview

Bai Xiaoding didn't have much hope for the recruitment of reporters for the evening newspaper, but after learning that his father had entrusted someone to do it and gave him a gift, he began to take action and put it into action. For several days, he kept his doors behind closed doors, taking out all the professional books and reading them through. He thought to himself that if this matter did not work out because of his own reasons, it would become another "college entrance examination fainting", which was absolutely impossible, and the ardent hope of his parents was on the one hand, and he really wanted to become a journalist. Fortunately, when I was in college, I studied very hard, and my knowledge was relatively solid, and I was able to pass the recruitment written examination smoothly.

In order to cope with the next interview, Bai Xiaoding went to the bookstore and bought back the two books "Interview Skills" and "Interview Book" to study carefully, and made a detailed outline of the questions that the interviewer might ask, and gave appropriate answers one by one. After a few more days, I finally waited for the interview notice.

The evening newspaper is a five-story building, and the interview venue is in the conference room on the fourth floor. The interview started at nine o'clock, Bai Xiaoding arrived just after eight o'clock, standing in the corridor at the door of the conference room and waiting, and after a while, other applicants also arrived one after another, and forty or fifty people crowded the entire corridor.

It was almost nine o'clock, three men and one woman, each with a notebook, and the woman, who looked to be in her early 40s, came to the corridor and introduced herself as the deputy director of the office of the newspaper, surnamed Ma.

Deputy Director Ma picked up a list in his hand and glanced at it, then said loudly: "Listen, everyone, now start the interview, I will call one by one in order, please come in if you call the name, Ma Xiaoqing, is Ma Xiaoqing here?" ”

"I'm here!" A girl rushed out of the crowd and excitedly followed Deputy Director Ma into the conference room.

After a while, the girl named Ma Xiaoqing walked out of the conference room and left with a smile, and at the same time, Deputy Director Ma who came out shouted another one called "Sun Mingwu", it was a boy of the same age as Bai Xiaoding, I saw him walk out of the crowd quickly with a confident face and enter the conference room.

After another while, Sun Mingwu left with a smile on his face, and then Deputy Director Ma called another name...... Another ...... shouted Another ...... But none of them are "white ding".

Bai Xiaoding stood quietly in the crowd, watching the number of people waiting for interviews on both sides of the corridor decreasing, and after three hours, he was still standing in place, and when there were only two people left in the corridor, Deputy Director Ma shouted that it was not the name "Bai Xiaoding".

After a while, when the door of the conference room was pushed open again, Deputy Director Ma glanced indifferently at Bai Xiaoding, who was standing alone in the corridor, and said tiredly: "You are Bai Xiaoding, right?" Come in. ”

When Bai Xiaoding walked into the conference room, the three leaders sitting behind the big conference table were obviously tired, Bai Xiaoding glanced at the name cards in front of them, sitting in the middle was Vice President Dong Lianru, sitting on the left side was President Wang Wenli, and sitting on the right was Leng Jun, the director of the office.

Leng Jun pointed to a chair across the conference table and said to Bai Xiaoding, "Sit down." ”

Bai Xiaoding thanked him and sat down. Wang Wenli pulled down his glasses and looked up at Bai Xiaoding, then lowered his head to look at Bai Xiaoding's written test answer sheet.

Dong Lianru raised his head and asked Deputy Director Ma if Bai Xiaoding was the last, and after receiving an affirmative answer, he turned to Bai Xiaoding and said, "Please introduce yourself first." ”

"Okay, my name is Bai Xiaoding, and I graduated from the Department of Journalism of Danbei University this year. In college, I majored in journalism and minored in advertising, and I always wanted to be a journalist. At the same time, as a student union officer, my organizational and expression skills have been fully honed during the four years of university......

At the beginning, Bai Xiaoding was a little nervous, but soon relaxed and talked eloquently. The three interviewers also listened very carefully, and then the three of them asked him some questions, and Bai Xiaoding, who was well prepared, answered them one by one confidently.

"Last question, you are a recent graduate with no work experience, do you think you are qualified for this journalist job?" This question was asked by President Wang Wenli.

"Ladies and gentlemen, although I have no work experience, but during my study at the school, I have always used the identity of a student union cadre to do part-time work, I have worked part-time in advertising companies, part-time jobs in restaurants, in order to have more contact with the society, understand people's livelihood, and very rewarding. It can be said that although I have just graduated, I have a certain understanding of society and the workplace, and in fact, the knowledge of actual work is far richer and more complex than book knowledge. I am confident that I have a strong ability to adapt and learn, if I can get this job, then I will definitely do it with 100 times more enthusiasm and responsibility, and will not let the leaders down! Bai Xiaoding's answer was natural and smooth, and it was done in one go.

Wang Wenli nodded after hearing this, with a satisfied look on his face, stood up and took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Bai Xiaoding. Bai Xiaoding knew that the interview was over, so he hurriedly went to shake hands with Wang Wenli, and then shook hands with Dong Lianru and Leng Jun, who stood up at the same time. When shaking hands with Leng Jun, the other party's hand was closed at the touch of a button, which made Bai Xiaoding feel as if this person disliked himself.
