Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life-Chapter 750 - 745: Recruitment

After returning to the modern world, the first thing Lin Wanwan did was drive to the Iverson Headhunting Company’s office in Yongcheng.

At this moment she was sitting in their reception room, waiting for the headhunter to arrive. The tea and snacks on the coffee table held no appeal for her.

This headhunter center was found by Lin Wanwan online, and she had directly scheduled a time to visit in person.

There are quite a few headhunter consultants here, but Lin Wanwan wanted to settle things once and for all, so she chose the most experienced one among them.

Besides the high price, there should be no drawbacks.

After waiting for less than two minutes, a man in his thirties, dressed in a suit, walked over with the typical beer belly and receding hairline of men in his age group.

"Hello, Ms. Lin, sorry to keep you waiting."

Seeing that the visitor was a young beauty, the man’s hand, which had been poised for a handshake, was momentarily held back, as offering respect doesn’t necessarily require a handshake.

"I am Jack, the manager of Iverson Headhunting Company’s Yongcheng branch and also a senior headhunter consultant. It’s a pleasure to serve you."

Prior to the meeting, Lin Wanwan had already submitted her basic information, so the other party was aware of the purpose of her visit.

To recruit an external CEO for Yongtang, Lin Wanwan couldn’t just pick anyone casually.

However, she didn’t want to spend time and effort going to job markets and posting recruitment information online to interview candidates one by one, as it would be too time-consuming, and she lacked the patience for that.

Therefore, she thought of the headhunting company. Previously, when Yongtang hired a Hanfu designer, they collaborated with a headhunting company, and it went quite well.

The headhunting company specializes in this field, with unquestionable professionalism, and the only downside is that it costs a lot. But Lin Wanwan happened to lack large money but not small money, so it’s no big deal.

Compared to those with hundreds of billions, Lin Wanwan is definitely considered a wealthy person.

What’s key is that she’s a tycoon without much cost, making money in Great Tang with just pepper.

As someone who requested the highest-level consultant service upon entering, Lin Wanwan naturally grabbed the attention of this manager who goes by the English name Jack.

At his level, consulting fees are calculated by the hour, so someone who chooses him without hesitation must be sincerely recruiting and not short of money, thus deserving good service.

"Hello Jack, I’ve already sent my requirements to your company’s email previously. I need a CEO who can stand alone and a highly capable special assistant. How is your understanding of my needs?" Lin Wanwan directly stated her purpose clearly.

Paying for service means no need for pleasantries, simply make demands directly.

"Okay, Ms. Lin, based on the requirements you sent to our email, I’ve prepared this selection of CEO candidate profiles and special assistant profiles for your review. If you have any questions, I am always here to answer."

Jack was also straightforward, arriving with two folders containing prepared information.

Lin Wanwan picked up the folder labeled "CEO" and began to look through it, which included five resumes and their headhunting company’s evaluations, all appearing to be young and promising candidates with similar credentials.

All graduates from internationally renowned universities, fluent in English, with company general manager management experience, plus some accounting, law, and minor language skills as extra points.

These are all talents indeed!

Just judging by the resumes, they seem very pricey, with no less than tens of thousands or even millions a year to retain, and most have probably requested equity options.

In the modern world, recruiting is really convenient, you just need to pay!

Lin Wanwan’s gaze lingered a few seconds longer on the resume of the candidate with the most outstanding appearance.

When abilities and resumes look about the same, looks can certainly become a bonus factor.

Whether or not the candidate is suitable still requires an interview to determine.

"Do you have any additional introductions about these people?"

Jack replied, "These candidates are all highly capable. I have contacted each of them to ensure no subpar candidates."

Lin Wanwan pondered for a moment and pointed to the most visually appealing and also the youngest resume, saying, "Let’s go with Liang Mingzhe first. I’ll conduct an interview, and if he’s the right fit, that’s great. If not, I’ll select someone else."

"Alright, I’ll arrange the interview time for you. When would Ms. Lin prefer?" Jack asked.

Lin Wanwan picked up the other assistant folder and casually replied, "After I choose an assistant candidate, we can interview together."

"Sure, please go ahead."

The special assistant candidates were quite interesting, with significant differences in their resumes.

Some people’s educational backgrounds were indistinguishable from those in the CEO folder, aiming for the future succession of the company, belonging to the category of young backbone candidates.

Given Lin Wanwan’s small-scale company, with a CEO in place, there’s no immediate need to groom a successor.

"Why did Niu Kongqing, originally a star agent, decide to change careers?" Lin Wanwan picked out the most intriguing profile.

An unusual surname, coinciding with the Chinese medicine name Kongqing, caught the eye of Lin Wanwan, who has considerable research in Chinese medicine.

"This candidate is very capable. The reason for choosing a career change is her strong personality.

I don’t know if Ms. Lin paid attention to the hot topics a while ago. This candidate managed an artist who was replaced from a role for refusing casting couch practices, which stirred the hot topics.

Eventually, the investor with improper intentions didn’t come off well, was fired by the original company due to the fallout, while the artist continued in the film. Yet, this agent who helped tirelessly behind the scenes resigned voluntarily.

She might be tired of the shady sides of the entertainment industry, hence wanting to switch to another field.

Objectively speaking, she would be no problem as a special assistant.

She’s an excellent young woman with comprehensive skills, perfectly suited for handling matters that require the details the chairman can’t attend to and being a star agent is her specialty, plus she has a background in law."

"Alright, let’s go with these two. Help me schedule the time, preferably for the interview this afternoon." Lin Wanwan closed the folder, having made her decision.

"Alright, glad to serve you. Ms. Lin, please take a moment to rest. I’ll arrange the schedule and get back to you shortly." Jack nodded, picked up his phone, and left the reception room.

When the candidates are handpicked initially, the interview process doesn’t usually result in significant disappointment, given these people have been preselected by headhunter consultants before being presented to Lin Wanwan.

Regarding the two talents, Liang Mingzhe’s salary requirement was a million a year, which could be adjusted downward with equity options.

Lin Wanwan agreed to the million-a-year salary, opting not to immediately grant shares, first hiring for a period to evaluate competency.

Niu Kongqing’s requested salary was three hundred thousand a year, similar to what Lin Wanwan currently offered Pan Junqi, which she also agreed to.

Contracts with the two talents are signed on an annual basis.

The contracts used with both were not generic templates but specially made by Tan Qinghui, tailored perfectly for them.

With the arrival of Liang Mingzhe and Niu Kongqing, only Pan Junqi felt slightly unsettled. To appease him, Lin Wanwan issued a performance bonus to all company employees, with Pan Junqi receiving the highest amount.
