Therefore, apart from a few other executives who were also originally from the Mayberry Commercial Group, the rest of the executives in the Dream Investment Group were recruited through the company’s annexation and new recruitment.
However, the company ignored nepotism, which was probably the reason why there were so many shady dealings.
Gerald understood this, but it could wait. For now, lunch was more important.
He enjoyed a simple lunch before heading back to his room where he changed into a suit and a pair of leather boots.
He brought along a copy of his interview documents and the letter of recommendation before heading toward the Dream Investment Group to attend his interview.
“Hello, beautiful. Is the twenty-sixth floor the place I should be headed to if I’m attending an interview for the investment department?” asked Gerald to a young girl who had just exited the elevator with a pile of documents in hand.
“Um, yeah! You’re here for an interview, right? The twenty-sixth floor is correct!”
She seemed to be around the same age as Gerald. She had that fresh university graduate look to her.
“Thank you!” said Gerald with a smile.
“You’re very welcome- Ahh!”
As she was too focused on responding to Gerald, she accidentally dropped all her documents onto the ground.
Gerald immediately squatted down to help her pick the documents up.
“Did you apply for an internship here immediately after graduating too?” she asked with a smile as Gerald helped her pick up the documents.
“Bingo! How long have you been working here?” asked Gerald in return.
“No! I’m here for an interview!” said Gerald as he smiled.
“Hehe… So you haven’t even gotten the job yet. You seem quite confident, but I’m honestly unsure if you’ll actually make the cut!” replied the girl as she looked at Gerald.
“Hmm? You seem sure… Why is that?” asked Gerald, slightly puzzled by her response.
“You’ll understand once you arrive upstairs. You’re honestly quite unlucky that the investment department is only looking to hire one man and woman this time!”
Gerald thought about it for a while. He was well dressed today and he knew that he had enough confidence and the proper temperament to be hired. Why would he be out of luck?
Soon enough, they arrived at the twenty-sixty floor.
The moment Gerald arrived at the interview hall, he finally understood what she had meant.
