Chapter 3 - interview
Fang Xiaole saw the job information on the Internet to the effect:
Apple TV recruits six location staff, gender requirements: male.
Job responsibilities: Assist the director, deputy director and other staff to arrange the scene props, and deal with the temporary situation during the recording of the show as required.
Salary: The basic salary is 2500, and there is a recording bonus of 100 yuan per day when the program is recorded.
As for insurance, he didn’t write anything, so Fang Xiaole came to the conclusion that this is a temporary worker without a staffing.
This is also the reason why Fang Xiaole puts the recruitment information of one of the best TV stations in China like Apple Satellite TV at the end.
The recruiting party is really awesome, but the position it recruits is very awkward. Even if it is successfully recruited, it is only a temporary worker and does not enjoy the benefits of any staff in the establishment of a big TV station.
But after more than a dozen failed interviews, Fang Xiaole knew that he was no longer qualified to pick and choose.
Let’s talk about a job first.
Fang Xiaole walked into the Apple Building and after inquiring about the front desk, he took the elevator to the fourth floor. As soon as he got out of the elevator, he saw at least fifty or sixty people standing in the corridor outside a room.
So many people come to apply?
Fang Xiaole was taken aback, and he was ashamed that he had looked down on this job before.
also became less optimistic about his interview prospects.
It’s really hard to find a job now. I have to face fierce competition wherever I go. I can’t do anything but sing. Why should I compete with others?
“Hello handsome, did you apply for the job?”
A girl with a small round face and big eyes greeted her and asked with a smile.
“Hello, I’m here to apply.”
Fang Xiaole saw that there was a work card hanging around her neck. It was probably a staff member of Apple Station.
“Welcome to apply for Apple TV. I am the assistant director of the “Super Challenge” program group. My name is Su Yu. Could you please fill in your personal information.”
After the lively girl introduced herself, she took out a form and handed Fang Xiaole a pen.
After Fang Xiaole finished filling it out, Su Yu took the form and looked at it, and then smiled sweetly: “Fang Xiaole, Nuo, this is the number plate. You can go in when you are called. There is a stool over there. You can go first. Rest awhile.”
“Thank you.” Fang Xiaole took it, and couldn’t help but sigh. As expected of the big TV station, it has such a good attitude towards the temporary workers who come to apply for the job. The quality of the staff is really high.
“Today, the chief director came for the interview in person, so you can say that you can do everything and you can eat all the hardships. Don’t be nervous.”
Su Yu stood on tiptoe and whispered to Xiao Le.
“Oh, good, thank you.” Fang Xiaole was taken aback, then nodded repeatedly to express his thanks.
Su Yu smiled, showing two dimples on her face: “Come on”
“Yeah.” Fang Xiaole also responded to a gesture given by Ollie and walked to the stool next to the corridor and sat down.
Wow, the people at Apple Station feel so kind.
It is a pity that they only hire temporary workers, and they may not apply for it.
Fang Xiaole’s impression of Apple Station was so good that it exploded, but he also had some regrets.
He looked down and saw that the number plate in his hand was number 18.
Um?
There are at least fifty or sixty people waiting for an interview in the corridor. Why is their number so high?
He looked at Su Yu subconsciously, and wanted to go over and ask, just to see a few more candidates coming up in the elevator. These people seemed to have been working outdoors for a long time, with dark skin and rough appearance.
Just now, Su Yu, who is still very kind to Xiaole, walked up coldly, put a few forms and number plates on the table, and said in a mechanical tone: “Fill out the form and go to the line.”
The numbers on the number plates are 61, 62, and 63 respectively.
Fang Xiaole: “?”
He touched his face and finally understood.
This terrible, face-seeing world!
“Please come in on the 18th.”
Soon, the door of the interview room opened, and the interviewee on the 17th walked out, and Fang Xiaole quickly stood up.
Su Yu ran over, handed him his information sheet, and blinked at him with big eyes: “Come on, I am optimistic about you.”
Fang Xiaole nodded, still a little nervous, straightened out his white shirt, and walked into the interview room.
This is a very spacious room. There is a long table opposite the door. There are three people sitting behind the table, and there are brand names in front of them.
Sitting on the left is a man about 30 years old, with a sparse Mediterranean sea above his head, and the sign says: Luo Hui, deputy director of the location group.
On the right is a middle-aged man with no hair on his head. The sign says: Director of the location group, Zhong Lili.
As expected, the more bald, the stronger.
Fang Xiaole turned his gaze to the one sitting in the middle. The title on the sign was bigger: Chief Director, Li Wan.
But this one is not bald, because she is a woman.
is about thirty-five or sixteen years old, with her long hair rigorously set up, apricot eyes and red lips, her charm still exists, but her skin is a bit dry. It is probably due to the fact that she often runs outdoors and stays up late during the production program.
“Hello directors, my name is Fang Xiaole, I am 23 years old and I used to be a bar singer by profession.”
Fang Xiaole bowed slightly to the three of them, and spoke of his thin resume very skillfully.
Zhong Lili and Luo Hui glanced at each other, both of them were quite satisfied with the appearance of the other’s little Lego.
This time I recruited temporary workers from the location team. Most of them were doing heavy lifting. Occasionally, I had to appear as a guest of passers-by A, B, C. A tall and burly figure is a must.
It is said that they are the director and deputy director of the location group. If both of them think it is okay, a temporary worker can be settled quickly, but at this time the two only exchanged eye contact, and then did not speak any more.
There is still the chief director in the middle!
I don’t know what’s going on. The newly appointed chief director of the program group actually has to be there in person even when recruiting temporary workers on location. This is too personal.
Luo Hui glanced at Li Wan, who was sitting tightly beside him. He had some thoughts in his heart, but he didn’t say anything.
“Since you are a singer, why do you want to apply for this position? Do you know that location staff are very hard?”
Li Wan spoke, his voice a little hoarse, he felt a little majestic, and a little tired.
“I have a problem with my voice and I can’t sing anymore, so I can only work in other professions.”
Fang Xiaole paused and continued:
“Director, you see that I am so young and in good health, how could I be afraid of suffering and tired?”
Fang Xiaole raised his arm to show it, and he was a bit muscular. All three directors laughed. Li Wan continued to ask:
“In addition to singing in a bar, have you done other jobs? For example, have you participated in program recording or crew work?”
Fang Xiaole shook his head and answered honestly: “No.”
He didn’t intend to make up a better resume. No matter how good a lie, there will be a day to be exposed, so it is better to be honest at the beginning, at least in your heart.
Hearing Fang Xiaole’s answer, Li Wan’s face flashed with disappointment. Originally, she had a good first impression as a young man, but he did not have any relevant work experience. If he was too slow to get started, it would be easy to hold back.
“Thank you, Xiaofang, we understand your situation, please go home and wait for notification.”
