June 12th, Saturday.
Dongping County Party School.
Faraway Supermarket's recruitment office was located in the square of Dongping County Party School. The place was very spacious and there were many people there.
As for why it was called Faraway Supermarket, this was the name Li Dong decided on after thinking for a long time. It was a homophone of Li Chengyuan and Cao Fang's names.
When Li Dong just entered the Party School, he heard someone next to him discussing, "Second Brother, why don't you leave your phone number? If they want to hire you, you can quit your current job."
"How can I do that? I have been working my current job for seven to eight years …"
"Are you stupid? How much is your monthly salary? And it is manual labor! Look, the supermarket security makes 1200 a month. Where else can you find such a good job? "
"But …"
The man who was called Second Brother was tempted, but he still hesitated and said, "Although the current job doesn't pay much, it is very stable. The supermarket has not opened yet. Who knows if the business will be good? What if it closes down?"
"How is it possible? I heard that the supermarket owner is the family of a county leader. He has a net worth of tens of millions. How can he not afford a thousand yuan salary? "
…
Li Dong's mouth twitched. He did not want to listen anymore.
He did not expect the rumor to be so outrageous. He did not know where the rumor came from.
When Li Dong found Sun Tao, Sun Tao was commanding a few new personnel to maintain the order of the venue.
Seeing that Li Dong had arrived, Sun Tao breathed a sigh of relief. He introduced Li Dong to a bespectacled middle-aged man beside him, "Section Chief Wang, this is our Director Li."
Then, he introduced to Li Dong, "General Manager Li, this is Chief Wang from the Party School's logistics department."
Upon hearing that, Li Dong stepped forward and stretched out his hand, smiling. "Section Chief Wang, sorry for the trouble this time."
"It's nothing! General Manager Li is really young and promising! "
Section Chief Wang shook Li Dong's hand with force, his face full of admiration.
After all, Li Dong looked too young. He did not look like a self-made millionaire.
Li Dong said a few humble words with a smile on his face. He exchanged a few polite words with Section Chief Wang and politely sent Section Chief Wang away.
After Chief Wang left, Li Dong asked, "Brother Sun, quite a lot of people came. It looks like the situation is good. How many resumes have you received?"
"Not many resumes, about 20 to 30. But I left quite a number of phone numbers, about 50 to 60, and many of them are interested. "
Sun Tao briefly explained the situation. Dongping was not well-developed. In fact, most of the people who submitted their resumes were people who were applying for low-level leadership positions.
As for ordinary salespeople and security guards, some of them could be hired on the spot with just a few words. They didn't even need to go through an interview.
Li Dong also understood this. Hearing this, he felt relieved and praised, "Brother Sun organized the publicity well. I didn't expect so many people to come today."
This way, they might be able to hire all the people today. The earlier the framework was set up, the earlier Li Dong could be at ease.
Sun Tao also looked relaxed, but he said modestly, "This is not my credit. If it was not for the high salary offered by General Manager Li, these people would not be so eager."
The salary offered by Faraway Supermarket was not low. Otherwise, Li Dong would not have heard those words.
The average salary in Dongping was only 700 to 800 RMB. Li Dong offered 800 RMB per month for training and 1,000-1,500 RMB per month for formal employment. It was comparable to a state-owned enterprise.
Also, there was no hard work in the supermarket. The work was easy and decent. The salary was more than the coolies. Of course, it was attractive.
Li Dong smiled and did not say anything. He picked up a resume and looked at it.
After a quick glance, Li Dong shook his head and said, "A county is a county after all. There are too few talents."
"Hehe, General Manager Li, we are only recruiting some grassroots leaders. The supermarket is still in its infancy. The need for talents is not that urgent. When we open a chain, we don't need to recruit people from Dongping anymore. Jiangbei has a population of 60 million. We lack everything but talents. "
Sun Tao seemed to have expected this. It was not that Dongping did not have talents. The key was that Dongping could not keep these elites. The real elites were working hard in the big cities.
Just like himself. If it was not for an emergency, he would not have come back to Dongping.
Li Dong understood what Sun Tao said. He was just sighing.
Avoiding this topic, Li Dong asked, "Is there anyone applying for the finance position that I asked you to look out for?"
Ever since Li Dong scanned through the people he knew and did not find any suitable candidates for the finance position, he gave up on the idea of nepotism.
Also, the finance position needed professionals. It was better to recruit from the market, and the chances of finding suitable candidates were higher.
"If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten. There are some, but I don't think they are suitable." Sun Tao picked out a few resumes from the pile and passed them to Li Dong.
Li Dong took it and flipped through it. His face was filled with disappointment.
There were indeed people who applied, but they were either too old or not qualified in their specialties.
None of them had even officially obtained an accountant's certificate. They were really looking down on Distance Supermarket.
After all, it was a company with over a million RMB investment. It was not like those five to six people on the side of the road. Did these people think they were running a charity shop?
Li Dong threw down the resumes in his hand and shook his head. "This is not possible. The supermarket has a lot of cash flow. I don't feel safe handing it over to these people."
Money matters could not be sloppy. A slight mistake could bring a lot of losses to him.
Li Dong would rather have nothing than have something shoddy than to be perfunctory.
…
Just as Li Dong and Sun Tao were discussing the candidates for the finance position, an employee next to them brought a few resumes and put them on the table.
Li Dong casually took out a copy and looked at it. His face lit up with joy. "Did this person leave?"
The HR employee who just brought the documents saw the big boss asking. He looked at the resume and quickly said, "It was just handed over. He should still be here."
After that, he looked around and pointed at a figure not far away, "There!"
Li Dong quickly chased and shouted, "Ms. Yang Yun, please wait for a moment!"
…
As Yang Yun handed over the resume and was about to leave, she heard someone calling her from behind.
He turned around and saw a young lad chasing after him.
Yang Yun was slightly puzzled. "You are?"
Li Dong smiled and reached out his hand. "Hello, I am the general manager of Faraway Supermarket. My surname is Li!"
"General Manager Li, hello." Yang Yun shook hands with Li Dong subconsciously, then she frowned slightly.
"You are the general manager of Faraway Supermarket?" There was a hint of doubt and distrust in his tone. Obviously, he did not expect the general manager of Faraway Supermarket to be so young.
Li Dong coughed and pointed to several Faraway Supermarket employees behind him. "Ms. Yang, you don't think that I will lie to you here, right?"
Yang Yun was relieved. Thinking about it, it made sense. It was too daring to cheat right under their noses.
After confirming the identity of Li Dong, Yang Yun's vigilance was reduced. She asked, "General Manager Li, is it about the interview?"
"Yes, I just looked at your resume. The financial manager position you applied for is very important to me. Can we sit down and talk about it?"
Yang Yun nodded. She came here to find a job. An interview with a boss naturally meant that there was hope for a job. She had no reason to refuse.
Seeing that Li Dong was too young, Yang Yun's heart was a little shaken.
She was in her forties this year. It was the time to seek stability. A boss who was too young was somewhat unreliable in her eyes.
However, things had already come to this point. It was better to talk about it first. If she was not satisfied, she could just refuse.
…
Conference room.
This was a small conference room that the Party School specially vacated for Faraway Supermarket for the interview.
At the moment, Li Dong, Sun Tao, and Yang Yun were sitting in the conference room.
It was not until the moment they sat down that Li Dong had the time to carefully observe Yang Yun.
She was in her early forties. She maintained herself well and had a good temperament. She looked like a smart and concise person.
Of course, these were not the main points.
No matter how beautiful she was, she was in her forties. She was old enough to be Li Dong's mother. Li Dong naturally would not have any other thoughts.
He kept Yang Yun because of Yang Yun's professionalism and ability.
"Ms. Yang, did you graduate from Pingchuan University of Finance and Economics?" Li Dong was the first to ask.
"Yes, I graduated in 1983. It was still Pingchuan University of Finance and Economics. It has been more than 20 years."
"Your resume says that you have been working in a state-owned enterprise. The benefits there should be good. You have worked for so many years. Why did you choose to leave?"
Li Dong took a closer look at the resume. Yang Yun was not only an accountant in a state-owned enterprise, but she was also the head of the finance department. Why would such a person choose to leave at this age?
Yang Yun was silent for a moment and replied, "My daughter is taking her college entrance exam this year. I applied for a unpaid leave to take care of her. When I returned, my position was taken by someone else. The old leader had also retired, so I chose to resign. "
Li Dong was relieved. It was fine as long as there were no other problems. He was just afraid that she might have done something wrong.
Then, Li Dong asked a few more questions. Yang Yun answered them one by one. It gave Li Dong a good feeling.
Sun Tao also added a few professional questions, and Yang Yun answered them smoothly. Even Sun Tao felt good.
A university student in the 1980s, a department head of a state-owned enterprise. She had both experience and ability. She was perfect!
Also, she had the intention to work in his supermarket. Otherwise, she would not have applied for the job.
Thinking of this, Li Dong said directly, "Ms. Yang, I have no more questions. Do you have any more questions? If you have any, you can ask now. "
Yang Yun did not act coy. She went straight to the point. "General Manager Li, how much is the salary? What's your schedule? "
"The basic salary is 3000 per month. Bonus is calculated separately. The working hours are from 8 am to 6 pm. There is an hour and a half break in the afternoon. Six days off and one day off. "
It was rare to get a salary of 3000 in Dongping. Li Dong believed that not many people could offer a higher salary than him.
Yang Yun was also satisfied. It was common to have six days off and one day off. At this time, it was rare for state-owned enterprises to have five days off and two days off.
Although the salary and holidays were satisfactory, Yang Yun was still worried. It was mainly because Li Dong was too young.
After hesitating for a moment, Yang Yun still asked, "General Manager Li, is the salary paid monthly?"
Li Dong and Sun Tao looked at each other. Does she not trust our ability?
Although he was a little uncomfortable being questioned, Li Dong still nodded and said, "Yes, you will be the financial director. Are you afraid that I will reduce your salary?"
Yang Yun felt awkward when she heard this, but she heaved a sigh of relief in her heart.
Speaking of which, it was mainly because Li Dong looked too young. Otherwise, she would not have asked such a question.
Then, Li Dong simply said a few words about the time of arrival, and the conversation officially ended. Yang Yun became a member of Faraway Supermarket.
Perhaps Li Dong did not expect this decision to have a big impact on him.
