Instead of seeing Isaac off, Patricia zoned out on the diing table, assuming that he had introduced her to a job just to keep an eye on her.
As an afterthought, the burden on her shoulders was no longer there. Even if she was going to be an ordinary employee in such a big company like Arnold Corporation, she would earn herself better pay than the higher echelons in other companies.
People did mention that the Arnold Corporation offered good benefits to its workers. The cafeteria provided buffets, including desserts, fruits, and ice creams during lunch breaks.
She went back to her room and took a shower. She was drenched in sweat after taking care of Isaac yesterday. Feeling refreshed after a shower, she dressed up formally before putting on light makeup since she should at least practice the basic etiquette.
She did not dare to drive to Isaac’s company, as the car belonged to him, and the interview was her personal matter. He would give her a lecture if she used it for personal reasons.
The thought of the petty man annoyed her. Why is he so narrow-minded when he’s the president of a big company? Hmph!
It was about 10.00AM when Patricia arrived at Arnold Corporation. She observed the magnificent lobby the moment she stepped into the building.
When she told the receptionist about her interview, the security guards led her to the human resources department, which was located on the fifth floor.
The manager was a middle-aged man. After skimming through her resume, he said, “Patricia, you’re hired. You may proceed with the onboarding right now.”
He was the manager of the department, as well as the person she had contacted beforehand. What else could he say when Isaac recommended her? She passed the interview in no time.
It took her a few hours to complete the onboarding process under the worker’s guidance. It was not until then did she realize that she was still clueless about the position she was offered.
In hindsight, she asked the girl who helped her with the onboarding, “May I ask which position I’m offered?”
Patricia considered herself pathetic for her guts to accept the offer without even knowing the offered position. She was willing to do anything as long as there was a job for her.
The girl was astonished by her question as she looked at Patricia as though she was looking at an idiot. She checked the documents before answering, “You’ll be the president’s personal secretary.”
Then, her eyes widened before taking a closer look at the files. How can she be the president’s personal secretary when she only graduated from high school? Ah… I want to be the president’s personal secretary too, though.
Needless to say, Isaac was the dream man of every woman in the company. It was their wish to take over that very position.
Even Patricia was shocked to hear that. “What?”
The president’s personal secretary? A-Am I going to make coffee and clean the office for him again? Why can’t I escape from this loop?
“Yeah. You’re lucky.” The girl nodded in response before rolling her eyes in displeasure. “Report yourself to work at 8.00AM tomorrow. Don’t be late.”
Having said that, she returned to her place, leaving only Patricia standing on the spot. Although Patricia felt strange by the girl’s indifference, she was happy to finally land herself a job.
At that moment, the manager came out of the office and smiled when he saw her. “Patricia, welcome aboard.”
Thinking that the manager appeared quite amiable, she questioned, “Sir, may I ask how much my salary is?”
He smiled. “Since the position requires you to be on call 24/7, the salary is quite high. It’s about 30,000.”
She almost fainted when she heard that large sum of money. 30,000? Oh my lord. Has luck finally come to me? Isn’t that too much?
