I'm back in 1990

Chapter 1161: Onboarding

The next morning, Wu Jiabao got up at 6:30. This was a habit he had developed in the army, and since he had just been discharged, he couldn't change his habits anytime soon.

After making her bed neatly, she went out for a run and bought some soy milk, fried dough sticks, and flatbread on her way back.

However, when she got home, Cao Yuedi had already left because she had to be at the store at 7:30.

"Dad, Mom, Hanghang, breakfast is ready!" She called out to the upstairs before even going up herself.

"You bought breakfast? Why didn't you tell me? I made rice porridge, what am I supposed to do?" Seeing her daughter come back with breakfast, Wu's mother complained a little about her daughter talking to herself.

Wu Dunguang said, "Alright, stop talking. The rice porridge won't spoil if we leave it until tonight. We'll eat it tonight. You're destined to be a busybody; you'll never enjoy the blessings of your children."

"You've done all the good work, so I'm the bad guy now!" Mrs. Wu grumbled, but her actions betrayed her words as she set out the table and began preparing breakfast for her grandson.

After breakfast, Wu Dunguang first took his grandson to school, and then went to work. His son didn't get off work until midnight last night and was still sleeping, so he didn't let him get up.

After cleaning up the dishes, Wu Jiabao began to prepare for her interview at 10 a.m.

She struggled for a long time about what to wear. The Max Mara cashmere coat looked really good on her, but she felt it wasn't appropriate for an interview.

She changed into the clothes and then took them off again, repeating this several times, making Wu's mother, who was watching her change, feel dizzy.

"Which one are you wearing? This one looks fine, why are you taking it off and putting it on repeatedly?"

Hearing this, Wu Jiabao shook her lips. "Never mind, I'll just wear the down jacket. But I can wear new pants and shoes."

At nine o'clock, her phone rang. It was Huo Xinyuan, who was waiting for her at the entrance of the alley.

It was the same black Toyota Alphard. Before she even got close, the electric door to her side opened, and Huo Xinyuan, sitting inside, waved to her. But when she saw that Huo Xinyuan was wearing a down jacket, she frowned.

After she got into the car, Huo Xinyuan asked her, "Why aren't you wearing new clothes?"

Wu Jiabao lifted her shirt and stretched out her legs: "I'm wearing them! Look at this! New pants, new shoes!"

"Where's your coat?"

Wu Jiabao gave her reason: "It's too flashy. I don't think it's appropriate to wear that to an interview."

Huo Xinyuan could only glare at her with displeasure: "You!"

He then instructed the driver to head towards the headquarters of the Times Commercial Group on Huaihai Road.

After the car started moving, Huo Xinyuan handed Wu Jiabao a color brochure: "This is an introduction to the Times Commercial Group. Take a look; you might find it useful during the interview later."

In fact, Wu Jiabao had already searched online last night and gained a comprehensive understanding of the development history of Shidai Commerce, so she already had some knowledge of its history.

Furthermore, Times Commercial originated in Shanghai. She often went to Times Super Shopping Center with her family when she was a child, and her sister-in-law also worked there, so she is quite familiar with Times Commercial.

After all, the reputation of that era was known not only throughout Shanghai but also throughout the entire country.

However, she still turned to the first page of the brochure, which contained the group's corporate philosophy: "People-oriented, making employees happy, and satisfying customers."

Along the way, Wu Jiabao carefully flipped through the picture book in her hand. About forty minutes later, the Alphard drove into the underground parking lot of a building on Huaihai Road.

The building has 28 floors. The lower podium houses the flagship store of the Times Super Shopping Center, while the main building is entirely occupied by the Times Commercial Group. The huge characters "Times Commercial Group" on the facade are particularly eye-catching.

After entering the lobby and giving their names to the receptionist, the two entered the elevator without any problems.

After entering the elevator, Wu Jiabao was a little nervous, and her palms were sweating.

The elevator stopped on the 23rd floor, where the group's human resources department is located.

After exiting the elevator, Wu Jiabao saw a spacious and bright open-plan office area with green plants everywhere. Each workstation was very spacious, and there were also separate changing rooms and lockers. The overall environment gave people a very comfortable feeling.

A young woman in business attire was already waiting for them at the elevator entrance.

"Hello, my name is Xu Qing, and I am Minister Gao's secretary. Please follow me." She smiled and gestured for the two to follow her inside.

Huo Xinyuan politely replied, "Thank you for your trouble!"

Wu Jiabao also expressed her gratitude: "Thank you!"

The two followed Xu Qing into the office area, where Xu Qing occasionally explained the layout of the office area to them.

To Wu Jiabao's surprise, there was a rest area in the office area, which had a very luxurious bar with a coffee machine, water dispenser, microwave, large refrigerator, and two huge snack cabinets. Through the glass cabinet doors, you could clearly see all kinds of snacks and fruits inside.

Huo Xinyuan, however, didn't care. Times Trade Center had no shortage of such things. They usually couldn't finish all the samples sent by various manufacturers. She had been here with her uncle Huang Xiaochuan before, so she knew it very well.

Before long, Xu Qing led the two of them to the Human Resources Minister's office.

Xu Qing knocked on the door, and a woman's voice came from inside: "Come in!"

After pushing the door open, Wu Jiabao saw a woman who looked to be under forty years old sitting inside.

"Hello, Aunt Gao!"

Upon seeing Huo Xinyuan, Gao Yue stood up with a smile: "You're here! Please have a seat!"

The current Human Resources Director is Gao Yue. After years of experience, Gao Yue has worked her way up step by step, serving as a department manager, store general manager, regional purchasing agent, and regional general manager. She took over this position more than two years ago and officially became a senior executive of the group.

Gao Yue then warmly shook hands with Wu Jiabao: "I heard about your situation from Xinyuan, and I'm very interested."

"Thank you, Minister Gao!" Wu Jiabao said somewhat reservedly.

"Don't be shy, sit down and let's talk!" Gao Yue gestured for Wu Jiabao to sit down.

At this moment, Huo Xinyuan stood up and said, "Aunt Gao, you two chat, I'm going out to find some snacks."

Gao Yue said with a doting expression, "Go on, you little glutton!"

Gao Yue then chatted with Wu Jiabao for about half an hour, mainly learning about Wu Jiabao's experience in the army, her hobbies, and her family situation.

After their conversation, Xu Qing took her to complete the onboarding procedures, which almost surprised Wu Jiabao. Wasn't she supposed to be here for an interview? Why was she being onboarded so quickly?

The onboarding process was completed quickly.

Wu Jiabao looked at the job offer letter in her hand in disbelief. It read: "Ms. Wu Jiabao, after review by the Group's Human Resources Department, you have been hired by our Group as a Specialist in the Group Headquarters Administrative Department. The probationary period is three months, with a salary of 9,000 yuan. After the probationary period, the salary will be 12,000 yuan, in addition to enjoying the Group's unified benefits..."
