v3 Chapter 209： Favorite Job (2 in 1)

, the fastest update to the latest chapter on the day of the Hogwarts draw!

The school recruitment venue is actually the Quidditch pitch, but at this time there is a roof on the top of the pitch, and the goal posts in the pitch have all disappeared, replaced by an open lattice separated by wooden boards. There are a few small tables and a few chairs. These cubicles are where the school recruitment interview takes place.

As for the stadium stands, they were not closed and remained open. When students are tired from shopping, they can come here to take a rest, take stock of their own gains and losses, or come to a quiet place to discuss further details with the person in charge of their favorite company.

When a few people came outside the stadium, the Ministry of Magic's school recruitment had not yet started, but there were already many wizards who were about to graduate outside the stadium. Tom saw that this group of students included Percy of Gryffindor, Oliver Wood, Hufflepuff prefect Gabriel Truman, and many seniors who were familiar but could not name them.

It turns out that they are all about to graduate, and the opening dinner seems to have happened yesterday... Tom felt a little emotional.

Several people joined the queue together. When Percy saw Tom coming, he took the initiative to greet him. Today's Percy is also very formal, giving people the illusion of using all the pocket money he has saved over the past seven years to buy clothes.

In fact, Percy really didn't break the bank. He had planned to rent a set of clothes, but he stumbled into a room full of hooded dresses while wandering around the castle, and solved the problem of clothes directly.

At nine o'clock sharp, the gate of the Quidditch pitch slowly opened, revealing the well-ordered venue inside. The students who were waiting outside filed in and went straight to the department booth they had been optimistic about.

"Take this." Robert took a booklet out of nowhere and shoved it to Tom. The above is the layout of today's venue and the introduction of the positions offered by each department.

The introduction of the Ministry of Magic is still very detailed. The name of the position and the requirements for the certificate will be written at the top. The following paragraph will summarize the work content of the position.

For example, the Muggle liaison provided by the Muggle Issues Mediation Committee of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters requires only a certificate of o.w.l.s Muggle Studies, and requires candidates to be "enthusiastic, patient, and have a good sense of humor"

In general, no serious wizard would want to take the job, because a good sense of humour is not enough for individual Muggles—such as the Dursleys—but there is enough force. The first time Hagrid saw Uncle Vernon, he was directly shot at. That meeting ended with Hagrid successfully proving that the inner fist in seven steps is fast and completing the task perfectly.

After entering the court, Robert also became nervous.

"Well, you guys go shopping first, I'm going for an interview."

"Good luck!"

"thanks."

Tom and Robert were thus separated.

Tom took the brochure and looked for the booth he was going to join.

"Department of Management and Control of Magical Creatures... Department of Biological Management and Control, there it is, here it is! Dementor's Office... d8..." Tom started looking for Number 8 in Section D.

"Tom, you're going to—" Hermione moved closer, but Tom quickly closed the booklet.

"That's it, you go to see the jobs you are interested in, I'll go first." Tom shoved the brochure into Hermione's hand and walked away quickly. Leave Hermione alone in a daze.

Tom Yoder! Hermione didn't expect Tom to really "fly alone", she subconsciously wanted to keep up, but Tom quickly disappeared into the crowd.

The d8 area is in the corner of the venue, and the location of this corner shows the actual treatment of the job: it doesn't matter. Hot or vital departments like the Auror Office and the Office of the Minister of Magic are naturally arranged in the most conspicuous places.

The newly established department, the Dementor Office, was squeezed into the corner. The d8 compartment can't be said to be uninterested, but it can also be called a door. Not only d8, but the booths around it are surprisingly quiet, because next to it is a series of recruiting booths for the Ministry of Magic, such as the Centaur Liaison Office.

In fact, in previous years, several offices shared the same cubicle, but this year, the department did not know what the wind was, and had to go to one room, so everyone had to be separated.

This also resulted in no one in the nearby cubicles, except for the Dementor's Office. There was a witch lying there, making up her sleep.

"Cough!" Tom cleared his throat, and the witch lifted her head from the table.

She was tightly wrapped, only showing a pair of eyes.

"I'm here to apply for the Dementor's office. Here's my resume." Tom handed the letter out.

"Follow me." The witch nodded and took Tom to the locker room on the Quidditch pitch.

After ensuring safety, the witch took off her hood and veil, revealing Burns' face.

"So what? Why did you come to me with all the trouble?" Tom wondered why Burns had ventured here.

"You're younger than I thought," Burns sighed, then told Tom of her latest decision.

Tom:  …

Really fun to play!

Tom shook his head, "The original promise was to establish a Dementor office, not three agencies, and such management would be very confusing."

Burns was briefly silent. Her plan ended up stuck at this link.

"That's right—"

"My request is very clear, I and the Dementors will only connect with one agency - as for you want to find an excuse to assign people to Azkaban, I have no objection." Tom's attitude was very tough. Of course he knows the benefits of decentralizing power, but the problem is that the Ministry of Magic is in charge of the department that connects with Azkaban!

You dismantled my car, sold a pile of scrap metal, and then talked to me about the benefits of dismantling the car? Yes, I can get a scrap money, but I don't have a car! The salary of the people in this department is not paid by me.

Wouldn't there really be someone who demolished their own car/boat and then happily made scrap metal money? No, no, no?

Tom stared at Burns with burning eyes, very imposing. Yes, behind you Burns is the Ministry of Magic, but don't forget how you came to power. I have the Dementors and Dumbledore behind me Tom Yodel, do you really want to be careful?

Tom made the fox fake tiger power to the extreme.

He had to expand his influence and that of Dumbledore in the Ministry of Magic. Because history has proven that in the face of the menacing Voldemort, the Ministry of Magic cannot be trusted, and it can only rely on its own efforts. This is the helplessness of ordinary people in this era.

Borns sighed, he was still too greedy, the wizard in front of him was not so easy to fool.

"Okay, then I will listen to you and only establish one agency. Which department do you want to put this agency under? I have to remind you that this is a bit flamboyant, and it is likely to expose you to the public eye." Bo Enns chose to back down.

Although this will bring a series of troubles, they are all troubles caused by her, and naturally it is up to her to find a way to quell it.

"Department of Management and Control of Magical Creatures." Tom chose the less popular Department of Management and Control of Magical Creatures from the two departments. His current power is still too weak, and the reputation of the dementors is too bad. If he acts in a high-profile manner, it will be bad if he attracts firepower to Voldemort. So it's better to keep a low profile first, and wait for Voldemort to make a comeback, and then move the camera. Guwang

The department will be run tepidly first, and the shelf will be put up first.

After Burns backed down, things got a lot easier to talk about. Tom and Burns were quick to talk.

"Then the Commissioner from the Ministry of Magic will ask you to take care of it." Borns did not forget to arrange for Umbridge before going out.

"Of course, I'll choose a good room for her, by the way, the hippogriff case..."

"I'll be there in person."

The two completed the exchange of interests in the dark room.

"Next time, you can send your letter to this address so that you can bypass the Ministry of Magic and communicate directly." Burns pulled out his wand and left a line of bright silver writing on the ground.

After doing this, she left the locker room.

In the main venue, the Hogwarts school recruitment is in full swing.

After the stadium opened, Percy strode into the venue, went straight to the a1 area where the Office of the Minister of Magic was located, and became the first interviewee in this area.

The person who received him was none other than Mafalda, the secretary of the Minister of Magic.

The gray-haired witch was sitting on a stool, looking small, with a teacup and a writing pad on the table in front of her. Today she was wearing a light blue robe and looked very relaxed.

Hogwarts was a warm place for her, and since she was the interviewer, there was nothing to be nervous about. And seeing the familiar layout in the venue, Mafalda felt cordial from the bottom of her heart.

[I must be an amiable interviewer] She cheered herself up in her heart.

Just after nine o'clock, the first interviewee came. He was tall and thin, he looked gentle, and his fiery red hair was particularly eye-catching.

Just seeing this hair, Mafalda had a rough guess about the identity of the visitor.

"Hello, please take a seat." She said briefly with a friendly smile. This made Percy relax for a while: his tactics were indeed correct!

The earlier you arrive, the more energetic and friendly the interviewers are.

"This is my resume." He took out a resume from his bag, handed it over, and sat down on the chair. However, his **** only touched the chair a little bit, and he felt like he was about to bounce off the chair in the next second.

really! After seeing Percy's name, Mafalda felt a sense of excitement when she guessed the word puzzle correctly. Percy Weasley, third son of Arthur Weasley, President of the Hogwarts Students' Union, very good student - his o.w.l.s grades prove it.

She pulled out a stack of pamphlets from under her desk.

"So which position do you want to apply for? Take it easy, just talk."

Percy sat down facing Mafalda, trying to suppress the tension in her heart. He swallowed: "I would rather be an assistant minister."

This Assistant Minister is certainly not referring to Mafalda's post. Even if Percy was Burns' illegitimate child, there was no chance at all. This position cannot be handed over to a fledgling boy. Mafalda had been in the Ministry of Magic for more than ten years before she got the job with the high promotion of her friend.

The job Percy wanted should actually be called a recorder. The job content is to follow the minister to attend various meetings or court trials, and then make records.

Mafalda nodded, "Based on your performance at Hogwarts, it's not impossible. I can ask the Minister if she needs an assistant."

This was a tactful way to tell Percy that his idea was impossible.

"But..." She changed her words, "I read your resume, and I'm pretty sure I want to be an assistant in the company below."

Percy's eyes lit up: that seemed like an excellent choice, too.

The reason why the department of the Office of the Minister of Magic is very popular is that it can assign graduates to various departments as assistants to the head of the department. This starting point is very high. First practice with the director for a period of time, and then be released. In many cases, the starting point of the people here is the end point of other people.

"Before I do, I have to make it clear that although your resume is very outstanding, you must have a good enough n.e.w.t. examination certificate." Mafalda said, she took out a silver one from her pile of books. small notebook.

"The requirements of the directors are not low, and some people have special requirements. Generally speaking, you must have at least four n.e.w.t. examination certificates, and the score should not be lower than 'good', which is one less than the requirements of the Aurors. Zhang. The Department of Magic and Sports also requires you to have a certain level of Quidditch…”

Mafalda looked at Percy, "So which division do you prefer?"

Percy's brain was running fast, "The Department of Magical Law Enforcement and the Department of International Magical Cooperation are very good."

Mafalda looked up at him, "I personally recommend you to go to the Department of International Magical Cooperation. Mr. Crouch is a respectable wizard, and you should get along well with him. Moreover, this year and next year, there will be a great deal of magic in the world of magic. Action, there will be a lot of experience opportunities in this division.”

Percy is a little confused: what's the big move? Is it the Quidditch World Cup? It seems to be related to the International Magical Cooperation Division, but isn't this the main business of the Magical Sports Division?

Seeing that Percy was a little confused, Mafalda didn't want to reveal too much - that important matter is still top secret, and only a few people such as her and the Minister of Magic know.

Percy is a little undecided In fact, his heart is more inclined to the Department of International Magical Cooperation. There is an indescribable reason: his father works in the Office of Prohibition of Misuse of Muggle Objects, if he goes to the law enforcement As the assistant to the director, it is very likely that he will often meet and even cooperate with his father.

Percy didn't really think so.

"Well, I will turn over your resume for these two divisions and see the final result." Mafalda gave a compromise solution.

"That's hard work for you." Percy thanked her very seriously.

After a while, Percy walked out of the cubicle in the Minister of Magic's office, glanced at the long line outside the cubicle, and left without a word.
