When She Stops Being Dramatic novel Chapter 440

Chapter 440: Chapter 157: The Green Tea Female Supporting Character in a Period Novel (44)

He never fought or vied for attention, because he knew that at home, no matter how much of a fuss he made, nobody would care. He wasn’t the eldest son, nor was he the youngest, and he wasn’t a sister who could be married off for a good price.

Working at the general hospital, he only had to think about his salary and benefits—which were equivalent to what two and a half people back home earned—and he would be overjoyed, finally able to hold his head high!

One of the candidates who found out he had failed the exam remarked sourly, "That’s not necessarily true. Didn’t they say acceptance is a two-step process? There’s the written test and the interview, right?"

"Even if you pass the written test, there’s still the interview..."

Someone immediately sneered, "The interview is just a formality. The outcome will be pretty much the same as the written test. Besides, it’s not like anyone here is an idiot. If you’re smart enough to ace the written exam, you won’t bomb the interview!"

’There are three hundred spots, after all. As long as we perform normally, our interview scores won’t be that different.’

More and more of the educated youth found their scores. Some were overjoyed, while others were heartbroken.

Just then, a staff member came out to post the interview notice.

"All candidates whose written exam scores are within the top three hundred, please be on time for the interview tomorrow at 8:00 AM in the east-side conference room on the first floor of the guest house. All other candidates may proceed to the finance office to be reimbursed for your travel expenses..."

"What? What does that mean? Didn’t Director Chi say they were hiring a total of three hundred people? If someone in the top three hundred bombs the interview, aren’t they going to consider those ranked below three hundred as alternates?"

Everyone was stunned, especially the educated youth ranked just outside the top three hundred. The glimmer of hope they had been clinging to was extinguished once more.

However, the candidates in the top three hundred were jumping for joy.

"So, does this mean everyone in the top three hundred will get hired, as long as they don’t have some major character flaw? And our final scores just determine whether we become official employees or temporary workers?"

"Exactly. That gives them plenty of leeway for selection. If they’re short on temporary staff, a big place like the general hospital can easily find a few people to make up the numbers. They can’t be expected to bend over backward for us educated youth on every little thing..."

With the dust finally settling, their restless hearts were at last put to ease.

Those who passed began to joyfully plan their futures. Meanwhile, those who had failed forced themselves to smile and congratulate their friends before silently returning to their rooms to pack, ready to catch the earliest ride out of town.
