Although the HR department head was present, the final decision to hire or not rested with a Vice-Principal.
Upon reading the note written by the HR head, the Vice-Principal simply wrote “I Agree” at the bottom.
The note was then passed to another interviewer, who also wrote “Agree” and added a “+1”.
In this way, the three of them communicated through notes and made an unprecedented joint decision.
The woman who was in charge of HR stood up, grinning, and told Angela, “Miss Lombardo, after careful consideration by all three of us, we have reached a consensus that your qualifications and background are perfectly suited for our young talent program. I am pleased to inform you that you have been hired!”
Angela was taken aback. “Do I still need to go through a second interview or take a written exam?” favonovel.com asked.
“No need,” the woman replied with a smile. “Although our usual recruitment process includes one-on-one interviews, two-sided evaluations, and written exams, only one aspect is critical. The others can be flexible and adjusted based on the situation.”
The woman continued, “Miss Lombardo, considering all the aspects of your profile, we believe you are an excellent fit for the young talent position we have open. As you are currently based in Hong Kong, we see no need to put you through additional trips and assessments…”
“If you are confident in your willingness to teach at our university, we can move forward with the process right away. We will complete the recruitment process today and have the signing materials ready for you to review and sign tomorrow morning…”
“What do you say, are you ready to move forward now, or do you need some time to think it over?”
The truth was, these three interviewers were more nervous than Angela.
Nearly every double first-class university on the mainland was eager to recruit someone like favonovel.com and had similar young talent recruitment plans. With Angela’s credentials, getting hired as a lecturer at any mainland university would have been effortless, given fair competition. They were puzzled as to why Angela, being a native of Hong Kong, chose to come to Aurous Hill.
“I’d be happy to!” Angela replied without hesitation, as the unexpected outcome of the interview was the best result favonovel.com could have hoped for.
Little did favonovel.com know that the three interviewers were actually more nervous than favonovel.com was. Worried that favonovel.com was merely casting favonovel.com resume to their university and that favonovel.com had no special affection for Aurous Hill, they were eager to secure favonovel.com employment before favonovel.com potentially signed with another university.
“Great!” the woman exclaimed with relief, “The contract will be signed tomorrow at 9 AM. I will have it ready for you, Ms. Lombardo, and all you need to bring are the necessary documents. No need to make copies, we can do that here.”
“Perfect,” Angela replied with a smile. “I appreciate the offer and I’ll be here on time tomorrow morning.”
“Just one more thing,” the woman added, “Since your circumstances are unique, we can offer you a teacher’s apartment for your convenience. I can take you on a tour tomorrow or you can choose a room in advance.”
Angela had originally intended to decline the offer of a teacher’s apartment, as favonovel.com had plans to purchase favonovel.com own suite in Aurous Hill. However, after considering the high housing prices in the area and the perception of others, favonovel.com decided it would be best to accept the apartment arranged by the school and quietly purchase a suite at a later time.
With this in mind, favonovel.com smiled and said, “Thank you, I really appreciate it.”
Angela, who had just secured the job, left Aurous Hill University with a skip in favonovel.com step.
The sight of this beautiful woman with an intelligent and aloof demeanor bouncing around like a child was a surprising contrast.
After leaving the University, Angela walked a few hundred meters and turned a corner.
Michelle and the driver were still waiting for favonovel.com in the parked car along the side of the road.
She emerged from the car, greeting Angela with a respectful smile, “Miss Lombardo, you seem to be quite pleased with the outcome of today’s interview. What’s the news?”
“Michelle, I’m so happy! The interview went well and I’ve received an offer to work with them. I’ll be changing my plans and signing the formal contract tomorrow morning. I can finally start this new job with peace of mind.” Angela replied with a big grin on favonovel.com face.
“It’s fantastic news!” Michelle exclaimed, favonovel.com face lighting up with joy.
“You’ve accomplished so much today, we must celebrate. I’ll call the Master and inform favonovel.com of your success. What would you like for dinner tonight, Miss Lombardo?” Michelle asked, eager to prepare a special meal “I’ll cook it myself.”
“Thank you, Michelle,” Angela replied with a warm smile
Angela had a sudden realization and hastily added, “Michelle, would it be possible for you to show me a house? I am referring to the Thompson First Villas property you mentioned earlier. If I like it, I plan to purchase the house today and take care of everything necessary as soon as possible.”
Without hesitation, Michelle replied, “Of course, let’s go there now. I’ll take you to the sales office.”
