Chapter 34: The Interview

Chapter 34

Huo Jiansheng smiled as he looked at Li Man. "Is there anyone else here?"

He had a strong impression of her. The first time he saw her was at the company's entrance, where she was almost beaten by her husband. The second time was at the hospital, where she was left bruised and swollen by her husband's abuse, looking quite pitiful.

Li Man awkwardly smiled. She didn't expect him to remember her. "You work here?"

Huo Jiansheng nodded and looked her over. "Are you here for an interview?"

Li Man nodded. "Yes, I am here to interview for a sales position."

"Have you done sales before?" Huo Jiansheng asked.

"No," Li Man honestly replied. "Although I haven't done it before, isn't sales just about having thick skin? As long as you have the confidence, there's nothing you can't sell."

"Do you have thick skin?" Huo Jiansheng teased.

Li Man rolled her eyes and said, "When you have no money, you have to have thick skin. It's a matter of survival, not choice."

Huo Jiansheng nodded in agreement. "Well, I wish you good luck."

"Thank you! By the way, which department do you work in?" Li Man asked.

"Come in."

A deep voice came from inside, and Li Man pushed the door open.

"Hello, I'm here for an interview. My name is Li Man."

When Manager Zhang heard it was Li Man, he looked up from his folder and examined her up and down, wondering about her relationship with Huo Jiansheng.

Li Man respectfully handed over her resume, which she had prepared in advance.

Manager Zhang took the resume and carefully looked it over. In the work experience section, he didn't see any sales experience listed for Li Man.

"You've never worked in sales before? And you've been out of touch with society for eleven years?"

Manager Zhang's brow furrowed involuntarily. If it weren't for Huo Jiansheng introducing her, he wouldn't have even considered hiring her.

"I haven't worked in sales before, but I'm willing to work hard. Although I haven't worked for almost ten years, I don't think I'm out of touch with society. I'm willing to learn, and I'll do my best to excel in this job."

"How can you guarantee that you'll be able to do this job well?" Although Huo Jiansheng had asked him to hire Li Man, Manager Zhang still wanted to make things difficult for her and see if she was capable of handling the job.

"To be successful in sales, the most important thing is to be able to endure hardship, to be good at reading people, to understand the needs of customers, and to work hard to satisfy those needs. When you satisfy the customer's needs, you're not far from making a sale. I possess all of these qualities." Li Man said confidently and without any hint of subservience.
