Chapter 838: A Fortune Turn Of Events
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There were several thousand employees at Empire World Corporation.
In such a large corporation, there was a significant turnover of personnel. Basically, there were interviews happening every day.
So Quenna thought it was very reasonable for Connor to come for an interview today.
“I can’t pass interview?”
After hearing Quenna’s words, Connor couldn’t help but pause for a moment, then looked at her and asked, “Why can’t I pass the interview?”
She looked up at him, then glanced around the elevator, making sure there were no other people inside, and whispered, “What else could it be? It’s because our company’s new chairman is holding a shareholders’ meeting today. This chairman rarely comes to our company, but for some reason, he suddenly decided to hold a shareholders’ meeting. So everyone in the company is working overtime for this meeting. Even the people in charge of personnel are extremely busy right now. How can they have the mood to interview you?”
After hearing her words, his eyes showed a hint of helplessness.
Quenna doesn’t know that the new chairman she mentioned was standing right in front of her now.
“Let me tell you, our company’s new chairman is a rich heir. It seems that he became the chairman because he inherited the legacy of the former chairman. But this person is a playboy, and he doesn’t care about the company’s affairs at all. Usually, everything is taken care of by Mr. Thomas. I don’t know what happened this time, he suddenly said there would be a shareholders’ meeting. And it’s so sudden. It really makes me mad. I was supposed to have a day off today, but I was called by a manager in our department…”
Quenna continued to complain as she looked at Connor.
“So that’s how it is…”
He nodded slightly after listening to her, then continued, “Since I can’t interview today, I’ll just leave…”
“Connor, don’t go!”
Seeing he was about to leave, she quickly reached out and stopped him.
“Didn’t you say no one would interview me? Why should I stay here then?” he asked her in an puzzled tone.
“Connor, you should know the strength of our Empire World Corporation, right?” she asked with a mysterious look on her face.
“I know…”
Connor nodded gently.
“Since you know the strength of our Empire World Corporation, it’s easy. Let me tell you, our company’s salary and benefits are among the best in the whole country. But the competition is also very fierce. Basically, out of every hundred people who come for an interview, it’s considered good if we can hire one. And most of them get in through connections. When I wanted to enter the Empire World Corporation, I had to use a lot of relationships and spend a lot of money…”
Quenna said to Connor.
“Quenna, what exactly do you mean?”
Connor asked Quenna with a puzzled expression.
“Oh, can’t you figure it out yourself?”
Quenna looked at Connor with a helpless look, then continued, “I just want to tell you that if you want to work in our company without money or background, there’s basically no hope. But luckily, you encountered me today, and I can help you…”
“You’ll help me?”
After hearing what Quenna said, Connor couldn’t help but pause for a moment. Then he smiled and asked, “Quenna, how do you plan to help me? Are you in charge of the interview?”
“I’m definitely not in charge of the interview. I work in the Secretariat Department…” she replied somewhat awkwardly, and continued, “You see, everyone in our company is so busy, and there’s definitely a lot of work that can’t be finished. I was called back mainly to help with printing documents and then put them in the meeting room. They might be needed when the shareholders have a meeting.”
“What does that have to do with my interview?” He looked at her with a puzzled look.
“Why are you so slow?” Quenna looked at Connor helplessly, then continued, “It’s 8:30 now, and the shareholders’ meeting starts at 10 o’clock. I have a lot of documents to print, and I might not be able to handle it myself. If you follow me and help, after I finish this task, I’ll speak a few good words for you to our department manager. If our department manager is happy, maybe they’ll directly hire you. Do you understand what I mean?”
“Um…” He was instantly stunned after hearing her words.
“Connor, you’re really lucky. This is a fortune turn of events, and you’re hesitating? You should know that someone like you without money or power can only enter our company through this kind of opportunity, you know?” she said to him with a smile.
“Quenna, if you want me to help you, just say it directly. Why go around in circles like this?” he said to her with a helpless tone.
Quenna’s expression on her face seemed a bit embarrassed. She stuck out her tongue and said, “You figured it out?”
“Even a fool could figure it out…” he said casually.
“Ah, it’s all because of that annoying chairman. He insisted on having a shareholders’ meeting. I originally thought I could sleep in today, but I was directly called by the manager with a phone call. There was some traffic on the way, so it took some time. If I go to print the documents by myself, I definitely won’t make it in time. So, Connor, please help me…” Quenna swayed Connor’s arm and said in a spoiled manner.
He looked at her with a helpless expression, then whispered, “Well, I don’t have anything else to do anyway, so I’ll go with you.”
“Connor, you’re really great. When you come to our company for an interview, I will definitely speak up for you. Don’t worry!” she exclaimed happily after seeing him agree.
“So where should we go to print the documents now?” he asked her softly.
“I’ll take you to the printing room. I work in the Secretariat Department, and most of my work is printing various documents…” she said with a pouting mouth, then grabbed Connor and left the elevator, entering the printing room.
The printing room in Empire World Corporation was very large, and at this time, there were many employees printing documents, their faces showing signs of tension.
Although there were more than a dozen printers in the printing room, at this time, every single one of them was in use.
Connor and Quenna waited for about ten minutes before they finally found a vacant printer.
She quickly plugged her USB drive into the computer and started printing the files.
She was in charge of printing, while he was responsible for binding the documents. The two of them were busy and efficient.
