Chapter 164 You’re a freshman and you’re already a boss?
Lu Shan didn't have the mind to think about the reaction of the Materials Science and Engineering team. He already had a new plan in his mind. For the time being, he still needed the equipment in the laboratory, so there was no need to turn against them.
No matter what task the team gives you, you just need to do it well. Whether you succeed or not is not something you should worry about.
Soon, the cherry blossoms and peach blossoms at Jiangzhou University were in full bloom.
End of July 2009.
As Jiyue Company entered a period of rapid development, more problems emerged.
Zheng Kaige was under increasing pressure and urgently needed manpower. To be honest, it was really inhumane to let only one person be responsible for technology.
Although Lu Shan will help to watch over him, Zheng Kaige is already on call around the clock and basically eats, drinks, defecates and urinates in the company, so we have to find someone to replace him.
It happened to be the school's summer job fair.
Many companies set up stalls at Jiangzhou University to recruit people. Lu Shan also wanted to set up a stall to recruit people. It doesn't matter who he recruits, it is better to recruit people from our school. When doing background checks, he can ask the teachers and know their backgrounds. Bragging is useless.
After all, in this era, online recruitment is not very developed, and campus recruitment is the easiest way.
"Want to recruit people during the summer job fair? Just tell me who you want and my teachers in other majors can recommend them." Chen Qiyi attached great importance to Lu Shan's ideas and wanted to get the best people for him.
Lu Shan waved his hand: "No, no, I want to recruit people myself and find people who suit my taste."
"Hahaha! It's different when you're a boss. You can speak with confidence." Chen Qiyi didn't blame Lu Shan for refusing. He felt that Lu Shan must have his own ideas.
In fact, after getting along with the materials chemistry team, Lu Shan found that many of the people recommended by teachers were unreliable.
After all, Xia Kingdom is a society based on human relationships.
Many times, they look at relationships rather than abilities. Some students may not have high overall grades, but they have special skills that meet their needs. Such people are easily buried, so they simply recruit people themselves.
Furthermore, Lu Shan had experienced a similar dilemma in his previous life. He was obviously better, but was eliminated because of the . So in this life, he must choose his own people, and he cannot trust all the people who are pushed to the front.
Chen Qiyi was very enthusiastic: "How about this, I'll find you a prominent position in the middle so that everyone can see you. If you need publicity, I'll also take care of it."
"Uh, that's really not necessary. I'd better go and occupy another spot. Everyone's stall has already been fixed. As a latecomer, it would be bad to ask others to move away."
Although Lu Shan refused Chen Qiyi's help, as the dean, how could he watch his favorite student suffer a loss?
So he asked his subordinates to provide tables, chairs, and stools, as well as a large square tent to shelter from the wind and rain.
I also helped Lu Shan make a big sign. It doesn't matter if Lu Shan has already made one, one more billboard will always be more conspicuous.
Chen Qiyi also specifically told his subordinates that if Lu Shan couldn't find a good place, the worst that could happen was that other stalls would squeeze in.
Just like this, Ji Yue Company got a nice place. Although it was a bit remote, it was conspicuous.
The campus is full of students, all hoping to find a suitable job quickly. Many of these people are undergraduates, and some are second-year graduate students. Graduate students have to start looking for jobs in the second semester of their second year, unlike undergraduates who have to start in the second semester of their fourth year.
Among these job-seeking graduate students are Qiao Weiwei and Ma Lijuan. They have been visiting institutions for two days but have not found any satisfactory positions.
The employment prospects for studying mathematics are actually very narrow. You can either be a teacher or do research. Communications companies like Warwick also need mathematics, but Qiao Weiwei and Ma Lijuan obviously cannot reach that level.
For companies further down the line, there is no need for mathematics.
However, Qiao Weiwei and Ma Lijuan are graduate students in mathematics and have very good learning abilities. Many companies are still willing to accept them. Such people learn things quickly and their work content does not necessarily have to be related to their job.
After walking around for a long time, the two of them couldn't help but look worried and kept complaining.
"I'm so angry! The people we admire look down on us, and the people who admire us we admire don't look down on us!"
"Hey! What can I say? That research company is very good, the salary and benefits are very good, but you have to work in the northwest region for more than ten or twenty years! My God, are they recruiting people to go to jail?"
"This is still a serious company! There is a company that is a serious company, but they want to recruit us to be administrative assistants, saying that our appearance fits the temperament of secretaries and the company needs such a facade. I feel so offended!"
"Weiwei, don't be so nice. There's a girl who obviously wants to take this position, but she doesn't meet the requirements. She wants to kill you. This is a good company with very good benefits!"
"No! I have learned so much knowledge, I don't want to be a vase in the end."
"At least I can still use it as a vase, while others can use it as a water tank."
"You are so mean, I hate you so much!"
After the two of them communicated for a while, they didn't feel so depressed anymore.
Suddenly, I saw a sign that said the salary was very high, a full 10,000 yuan! The salary of college students in this era has begun to decline, and Jiangzhou University only makes a little over 3,000 yuan.
Strangely, there were not many people in front of the stall. Qiao Weiwei and Ma Lijuan were very confused, but they understood after taking another look.
This booth is very small, and everyone subconsciously thinks it is a scam. With such a small booth, the company must be very weak, and it is estimated that it will cost a lot to get 10,000 yuan, and it is likely that there will be no sales.
At this time, Lu Shan went to the toilet. There was no one around the room the whole morning, and the few people he talked to were not satisfactory to him.
Zheng Kaige was alone. His classmates were surprised to see him here. "Jiyue Company? You are recruiting for Jiyue Company? Jiyue just got the investment from IDG. When did you join?"
Zheng Kaige was a little proud. He had always been very self-conscious because of his poverty, but now he had finally turned things around.
Zheng Kaige quickly controlled his emotions. He is essentially a calm and steady person, and those emotions are human instinct: "I have been working for Jiyue, and I did get financing a few days ago. If you are interested, leave your resume and the boss will read it."
"Boss? Oh, the boss is Lu Shan, right?"
Zheng Kaige nodded, and his classmates were amazed: "Lu Shan is just a junior but he has achieved such success. I must try. Please help me say good things about him!"
"I will tell the truth." Zheng Kaige accepted the classmate's resume, and then asked a few questions according to Lu Shan's prior request. The classmate answered very well, otherwise Zheng Kaige would not have accepted the resume and then asked questions.
At this time, Qiao Weiwei pulled Ma Lijuan and said, "Otherwise, don't invest in this company. It's a company started by junior Lu Shan."
"Why? The salary is very good and the boss is very handsome. It would be a shame not to go." Ma Lijuan is cheerful by nature and does not have so many concerns.
Qiao Weiwei was even more embarrassed: "It's too embarrassing for a senior sister to ask a junior brother to submit his resume."
Ma Lijuan laughed: "Hey! Why are you so entangled in this? What's the big deal! What's wrong with being a junior? There are a lot of sister-brother relationships. If you submit your resume, you might end up becoming the boss's wife. Then Lu Shan will work for you!"
"Go, go, go!" Qiao Weiwei was embarrassed and wanted to turn around and leave, but Ma Lijuan forcibly dragged her towards the stall.
However, at this time, there were already some people in front of Ji Yue's stall. This morning was enough time for the news of Ji Yue setting up a stall to spread, and students from many majors came to try it out.
According to Lu Shan's idea, the only majors to be recruited are computer science and mathematics. If there are other special talents, Lu Shan will select them himself according to the situation.
Qiao Weiwei and Ma Lijuan couldn't squeeze in from outside.
At this time, Zheng Kaige gave questions on the spot, and only those who could answer were eligible to leave their resumes. Everyone's questions were chosen by drawing lots. Those who were majoring in computing had to take programming tests, and those who were majoring in mathematics naturally had to take math problems. The questions were all very basic, but they also emphasized combined use. It was useless to just memorize.
For direct on-site computer programming, you only need to explain the ideas in mathematics.
Wow, this scene quickly attracted the attention of everyone around. I have never seen anyone select people in this way.
Many people think that campus recruitment is fair, but this is not necessarily the case. Many large companies have internal referral systems, and they will recruit people from specific schools based on their internal bases.
Some people who are well-connected or whose families are well-connected will be given priority for admission, without any assessment or anything like that. After all, many large companies, especially public ones, do not require too high abilities.
Therefore, Jiyue’s on-site assessment format is unprecedented, at least there are not so many people taking the exam on-site at the same time.
"What kind of company is this? Asking people to answer questions first and then collecting resumes?"
"Ji Yue, I heard that they just got an investment from IDG, a full 500 million dollars!"
"You're so arrogant with only 500 million? Which of the companies here isn't a large company with a starting capital of million? None of them are so arrogant. This is too high-profile!"
"I don't think it's a big deal. When they recruit people, they definitely want to hire talented people."
There was a lot of discussion around, and many people said that it was too much. These people were basically just there to get their diplomas. They were capable and could find better jobs, but these were not the people Lu Shan was looking for.
After a while, some of the people taking the on-site exam had started to give up on the test. They couldn't do it, and some even started complaining.
"How can such questions be answered? Jiyue Company is teasing us here! If I can solve these problems, why should I stay in Jiangzhou University and wait for recruitment?"
"I'll also give you a question, see if you can answer it, I doubt if you really understand it!"
"Go away, go away. Who can do this? Even the winners of the national scholarship may not be able to do it. Those people have been taken away long ago!"
Zheng Kaige was not angry, he was very calm. He said something couldn't be done, but someone had already done it this morning.
Qiao Weiwei became even more nervous when she saw this, and pulled Ma Lijuan: "It seems difficult, let's go!"
Ma Lijuan smiled: "What are you afraid of? We'll talk about it later if it doesn't work."
At this time, a voice came over: "Sister Weiwei! Sister Lijuan!"
Looking back, I saw Lu Shan coming back from the toilet.
