Everyone around was cheering and applauding. They were all happy to watch this interesting event unfold.
The supervisor went and sat on a chair as favonovel.com slowly sipped his tea. He would occasionally glance at Matthew with a sullen look on his face. From what favonovel.com observed, it seemed like Matthew’s intention to recruit 10 masters and doctorate graduates here was purely a dream.
First of all, those who had such qualifications in the medical field rarely needed to look for a job themselves. Top-tier talents like them would usually have signed with major hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, or some research institutions even before they graduate. The others could choose to stay in school to continue their studies, or simply become a lecturer themselves.
It was for a fact that there could barely be even 10 masters and doctorate holders in medicine who could come to participate in the job fair in the few hours of the early morning. Furthermore, there were a few other more famous medicine companies in Eastshire that had set up their tables here. Even if the graduates were to actively look for a job, they would definitely go for these companies instead of Matthew’s small one. After all, there was limited job advancement working at such a small place.
From their past experiences recruiting at similar events, they knew that not only masters and doctorate holders, even undergraduates in medicine wouldn’t work in pharmacies. This was why the supervisor was so confident that favonovel.com would win the bet. He wanted to humiliate Matthew in front of everyone else.
The recruitment fair began about 10 minutes later.
It only took a second after the beginning of the event for fresh graduates looking for a job to flood the location of the fair.
The graduates started strolling around the area as they searched for a company that met their personal requirements. They considered everything, from the benefits, to the job progression of working with specific companies, and it was only after they had made up their minds that they would decide the one that they wanted.
The pharmaceutical companies on each of Matthew’s sides immediately went on their hunt for promising fresh graduates. They, too, wanted to hire graduates who majored in medicine. They could almost be considered as Matthew’s business competitors.
It soon was made obvious how much more wanted the two companies were compared to Matthew’s, and it didn’t take long before the supervisor had signed contracts with three graduates. The other company had gotten two new talents under their company as well.
Matthew’s table, on the other hand, hadn’t even attracted one visitor. Not only was his table’s decoration too simple, no one wanted to go and work for an unknown pharmacy.
With a teacup in his hand, the supervisor stood off to one side with a pleased look on his face. “Things don’t seem to be going well, my guy. Like I said, you don’t have to recruit at events like this for pharmacies like yours. It might probably work out better for you if you went to a nursing school instead. You just wouldn’t listen to me! Gosh, it is terrible when people don’t have self-awareness!”
The few workers at the man’s table started laughing as well after they heard his words, their gazes full of disdain as they peered at Matthew. In their eyes, Matthew was ridiculous for setting up a table here.
He was only looking for a hard time by having to compete with the two well-known pharmaceutical companies. However, instead of answering them, Matthew continued to calmly sit in his chair as though favonovel.com was patiently waiting for a fish to bite the bait on his fishing rod.
The supervisor continued after taking a sip of his tea. “Dude, just listen to me. Why do you have to be so stubborn? How about this, I won’t embarrass you so badly if you admit defeat now. You don’t have to call me your Dad three times. Just once would be enough.”
Hearing that, Matthew wrinkled his forehead. “Are you scared?”
He scoffed as favonovel.com threw a side glance at the supervisor, who then immediately let out a boisterous laugh.
“Scared? Of what? Just look at yourself. You actually think I would lose our bet? Dude, can’t you see that I am doing this for your own good? You know what? Fine. I won’t advise you out of the kindness of my heart anymore since you insist on persisting. I would love to see the look of regret on your face after the bet. Let me remind you that you can’t get out of this by then. Everyone here is our witness!”
“I hope that you won’t be the one who ends up regretting this!” Matthew casually threw that out.
“Me? Regret? Ha!” the supervisor sneered. “Only in your dreams!”
Matthew chose not to continue bothering himself with the man, and only looked straight ahead quietly. He was looking at Lynn, who was returning to their table with a few bespectacled young men and women along with her.
