Chapter 201 Recruiting Employees
At night, Josie couldn’t sleep well. She lay on Dexter’s arm as she lay awake in the dark. “Dexter, why did you take me to the celebration dinner today?”
After a momentary silence, the man turned to the side and hugged her tighter. “You don’t like such occasions.
The role of Mrs. Russell is too demanding. I’m afraid I can’t bear it. You didn’t tell me I must carry out such duties when we signed the marriage certificate.”
Dexter laughed lightly when he heard her taunting him. “Didn’t you argue with me about Jesse because of this?”
This hit Josie’s sore spot, and she was slightly startled in the dark. She wanted to say, do you think it’s because of this? Instead, her lips twitched, and she said, “You gave in to me so easily. How considerate.”
“If I can compromise, you should too. Josie didn’t say anything else. She felt slightly cold for the whole night. After being promoted to design department head, Josie was busier than usual. She was still a so-called corporate slave when she returned to work, not Mrs. Russell.
The design department always lacked manpower. They needed newcomers who were talented and ingenious. Josie had interviewed a few people for the past few days.
“Ms. Warren, this is a postgraduate student that graduated from Wavery’s famous design institute.” A staff member handed her two sheets of paper. “On the other hand, this person doesn’t have a great educational background and went to a vocational school, but he seems very creative.”
“Both have great qualities. See who does better during the interview.”
Josie glanced at the papers. The first had a great résumé, but the second had an attractive design style. She took note of the person’s name. He was a twenty-three-year-old man named Kevan Quiring.
“Have they passed the second round of interviews?”
“Yes”
What remained was the third interview with her.
Their task during the interview was to design on a whiteboard. Josie gave them their challenge before the two interviewees started their design on the whiteboard, She would evaluate their design reasoning according to their performance.
Kevan looked honest, amiable, and composed.
Two hours later, Josie discussed with other colleagues and chose Kevan. He wasn’t surprised. It was as though victory had always been within his reach. The other interviewee was upset. As Josie was leaving, he rushed to her. “Why was he chosen? He graduated from a vocational school!”
Jovie smiled indifferently and explained. “Academic qualifications don’t matter in design,”
After that, she felt a blazing gaze from Kevan. He admired her but also felt curious about her.
At this time, a figure suddenly entered from the outside. “What about me?”
Everyone looked over in astonishment to see a tall woman in a green haute couture outfit with a Chanel bag. She walked in casually, looking very arrogant.
The woman from yesterday… Laura Brandel…
Josie suddenly felt annoyed. She stood upright. “Did you come for an interview? You’re not on the list.”
“Interview? If I were to work here, I’d be the boss.” Laura walked to Josie. “You’re not good enough for me.”
Josie didn’t understand what Laura wanted, and Josie raised her brows in frustration. “Ms. Brandel, I suggest that you look for Mr. Russell if you want to make trouble. It’s unfavorable for either side if anything happens. What do you think?”
Laura didn’t answer Josie at once. Laura walked to Kevan’s design on the whiteboard and picked up a marker pen. She drew on Kevan’s design. “In my opinion, this is the optimal solution for the design.”
Everyone looked over. No one imagined that Kevan’s design would look better after she drew on it. She was proficient in this field.
