Food: Taking the twins to kindergarten to be chefs

Time passed quickly, and interviewees came one after another, and each of them completed their test in about five minutes.

Some people returned full of hope and with smiles on their faces, while others walked out with solemn expressions and heavy steps.

No matter what expression they had, once they stepped over the threshold, they would be immediately surrounded by applicants who were anxiously waiting outside and started asking questions.

"Excuse me, what's the result? Did you pass?"

“What questions were asked during the interview?”

"Director Liang and the others, did they ask you to demonstrate your talent skills on the spot?"

"..."

This series of inquiries continued to be heard in the waiting area.

At this time, Chu Qiwen, who was temporarily pulled in to act as an assistant, stood up again after properly settling Qingqing and Weiwei, walked to the door, looked towards the waiting area, and shouted to the applicants: "Yu Xiaoshuang! Lin Jiayi!"

"what……"

Not long after they sat down, Yu Xiaoshuang and Shi Ruolin, who were busy typing on their phones, were startled by Chu Qiwen's crisp call. They both showed surprised expressions on their faces, then looked up and confirmed at the same time: "Is it my turn?"

The two girls looked a little dazed. I wonder if it was because they didn't take a nap at noon.

"Yes, it's you two!"

Chu Qiwen smiled and nodded, gently making a gesture of invitation, "Come in!"

"Okay, thank you, I'm sorry to bother you!"

Yu Xiaoshuang and Shi Ruolin quickly picked up the resumes on their legs, picked up the small bag beside them, and followed closely behind Chu Qiwen.

"Hello, leaders. I am Yu Xiaoshuang!"

Yu Xiaoshuang politely handed her resume to Liang Yinqiu who was sitting in the main seat.

Lin Jiayi also came up with a charming smile on her face. She gently placed her resume on Liang Yinqiu's desk and said in a gentle voice, "Hello, leaders. I am Lin Jiayi."

At this moment, her eyes inadvertently swept across the recruitment seat and fell on Huang Jun. A faint blush appeared on her cheeks involuntarily, and an indescribable subtle emotion surged in her heart.

Looking back last year, when Huang Jun came to Hujin Kindergarten with great expectations to apply for the position of chef, I had to politely reject him because there were no relevant vacancies in the kindergarten.

Now, I was impressed and attracted by his cooking talent, so I came to apply for the job with a flattering face.

only…

What she didn't expect was...

Huang Jun turned out to be one of the recruiters this time.

Uh…

It really proves the saying "God has his own way, no one can escape it, everything is determined by fate, no one has any control over it"!
Hey!
I hope Huang Jun can be generous and forget the past episode, don't hold a grudge against her because of that past, and don't make things difficult for her in this recruitment because of past unpleasantness...

Such worries were like a huge rock pressing on her heart, making it difficult for her to let go.

In fact, Huang Jun recognized Lin Jiayi the moment she came in.

He had already let go of the past. After all, if he hadn't been rejected that time, he might not have found the job he has now that makes him so satisfied.

Therefore, it is reasonable to...

He still has to love her!
When Lin Jiayi looked at him, he smiled at her and nodded gently as a friendly greeting.

See this.

Lin Jiayi was a little confused in her heart. She was completely confused by Huang Jun's sudden smile and nod.

Is this a friendly gesture?
Or is he showing off?
However, based on her observation and indirect knowledge of Huang Jun's character, it should be the former, right?

I hope so!

Otherwise, this job application will be in jeopardy.

"okay!"

Liang Yinqiu nodded gently and said gently: "Please sit down first!"

"Thank you!"

Yu Xiaoshuang and Lin Jiayi responded politely, sitting elegantly on the chairs carefully prepared for the interviewees, with their legs neatly together and their hands folded neatly on their abdomens, looking particularly dignified.

Liang Yinqiu picked up their resumes and read them carefully page by page, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

She unexpectedly discovered that both applicants came from "famous families" - the Government Kindergarten and the Hujin Kindergarten.

honestly……

She never expected that teachers from these two kindergartens would come to them to apply for jobs.

If Deng Manli, the principal of the government kindergarten, and Li Huizhen, the principal of the Hujin kindergarten, knew about this, the expressions on their faces would definitely be very complicated, with surprise mixed with some complicated emotions.

You know, these two kindergartens are the best in the city's early childhood education field, especially the government kindergartens. Teachers are scrambling to get in, so no teacher would easily think of changing jobs.

Could it be that…

Were they also attracted by the food in their garden?

Nine times out of ten it is!

After all, when we were recruiting teachers in the past, we never saw teachers from government kindergartens applying. Most of them were recent graduates or teachers from townships.

Since the teachers from these two excellent kindergartens came to her on their own initiative, there was naturally no reason for her to turn them away.

Furthermore, the resumes of these applicants are indeed excellent, with almost no flaws.

Only a fool would miss the chance to admit such an outstanding talent!
As for whether the two principals, Deng Manli and Li Huizhen, were in a good mood, that was none of her business.

After all, it is they themselves who cannot retain talent, who can they blame?
You can't blame her!
Liang Yinqiu elegantly handed the resumes of Lin Jiayi and Yu Xiaoshuang to every leader present. They lowered their heads and immersed themselves in the words of the resumes, and then cast approving glances at each other. They were quite satisfied with the qualifications and abilities of the two candidates.

Huang Jun was no exception. He nodded slightly to show his approval.

Lin Jiayi keenly caught Huang Jun's nod, and the uneasiness in her heart was finally relieved, as if a huge rock had fallen to the ground, making her breathe a sigh of relief. At the same time, she was more convinced that she had not made a mistake in choosing Huang Jun. Huang Jun was not only a talented chef, but also a broad-minded and fair gentleman who would never let his personal likes and dislikes affect his fair evaluation of talents.

Now!

Her application success rate has undoubtedly been significantly improved.

Lin Jiayi glanced at Huang Jun with gratitude, her eyes full of thanks and respect.

Huang Jun saw this and nodded politely in response.

Seeing that no one had any objections, Liang Yinqiu smiled and said to Lin Jiayi and Yu Xiaoshuang: "Teacher Lin, Teacher Yu, we have all read your resumes. You are both outstanding talents from the Normal College and are also well-known in the education circle of this city. It is really impressive! However, I guess you must have thought carefully before coming to us. If it is convenient, can you tell me what made you make this decision? Of course, it doesn't matter if it is not convenient to say, I just want to know more about you."

Yu Xiaoshuang smiled and said sincerely, "I worked in a kindergarten for three years. The children were very cute and I had a good relationship with my colleagues. But I always felt that something was missing, a feeling that made me particularly passionate. I especially wanted to make some new breakthroughs in teaching and give the children more interesting learning experiences. Later, I heard about your educational philosophy and innovative projects, and I thought this might be the place I have been looking for. In addition, I heard that the food here is particularly good, and I think this must be a good place that cares about the all-round development of children. So, I came to give it a try, hoping to make some contribution to you."

Lin Jiayi also nodded and said, "Me too. My previous job gave me a lot of experience, but I feel like I've hit a bottleneck and it's hard to make any further progress. I heard that you not only care about the all-round development of children, but also pay special attention to the personal growth and innovation of teachers. I'm very excited. I think only by constantly challenging yourself can you find the educational path that really suits you. Moreover, I also like the atmosphere and team here, and I think it would be very happy to work with you all. So, I submitted my resume without hesitation."

Liang Yinqiu listened and smiled with satisfaction.

I believe that the joining of Lin Jiayi and Yu Xiaoshuang will definitely bring new vitality and motivation to the kindergarten.

She had great confidence in their abilities, so she didn't let them show off their talents.

“You are very welcome!”

Liang Yinqiu said happily: "I believe that your talent and enthusiasm will definitely bring more happiness and growth to the children. Let us work together to create a better future for the children!"

Finally, she reminded them: "You two should report to the park tomorrow. Are you clear about the working hours and benefits?"

Lin Jiayi and Yu Xiaoshuang both nodded: "Understood! 4500 yuan during the probation period, 5500 yuan after becoming a regular employee, plus five insurances and one fund, lunch provided, and you can take away dinner!" Such salary and benefits are really good, especially the fact that lunch is provided and dinner can be taken away, it's simply great!

Even if it’s not for the salary, a lot of people will come to work just for the two meals!
"Okay, then go back and prepare well, and be sure to report to my office on time tomorrow!"

Liang Yinqiu looked at the two of them, smiled and nodded, then extended her hand in a gesture of invitation.

Lin Jiayi and Yu Xiaoshuang spoke almost at the same time, their voices filled with gratitude: "Thank you, Director Liang! We will definitely report on time tomorrow!"

After saying that, they bowed slightly politely to Liang Yinqiu and the others, then left the room.

The moment I stepped out of the door...

They inevitably received warm greetings from other applicants waiting for the job.

Faced with these friendly greetings, they smiled and gave appropriate responses one by one.

only…

When Lin Jiayi and Yu Xiaoshuang swept their eyes across the applicant waiting area, the figures of several familiar former colleagues immediately came into their sight, causing a hint of embarrassment that was difficult to conceal to flash across their faces.

Recalling the time before the New Year when they were on holiday, they had gathered together and said to each other that they would never quit their jobs to apply for jobs at Doraimi Kindergarten, but now they showed up here one after another...

This is so... embarrassing!

Lin Jiayi and Yu Xiaoshuang were both so embarrassed that they dug their toes into the ground to dig out a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment. They subconsciously looked away, trying to avoid the embarrassment.

But as soon as they turned around, they saw a familiar face, which made them even more at a loss.

Got it!

They all said that they would not quit their jobs to apply for jobs here, but their bodies were very honest and they all showed up here.

Everyone tacitly chose to lower their heads and fiddle with their phones, pretending not to see each other. The air was suddenly filled with a subtle atmosphere of "as long as you are not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed."

Lin Jiayi and Yu Xiaoshuang quickly fled the activity room with an attitude of "as long as I walk fast, embarrassment can't catch up with me."

"call…"

The two stood at the door, catching their breath, their eyes inadvertently sweeping across the line of applicants for kitchen jobs. A familiar figure suddenly jumped into Lin Jiayi's sight - it was Chef Zheng!

His sudden appearance startled Lin Jiayi so much that she almost cried out and her heart skipped a beat.

Although Lin Jiayi was surprised that teachers and childcare workers chose to apply for teaching and childcare positions here, she could still understand it.

But Chef Zheng...

This chef, who is always proud and confident with superb cooking skills, unexpectedly showed up here...

This simply subverted her cognition!

You should know that the positions being recruited in the kitchen of Dolaimi Kindergarten are just basic positions such as kitchen helpers, vegetable washers and cleaning, and there is no position for a chef at all.

In other words, Chef Zheng came to apply for the job this time with the intention of lowering his status and starting from a basic position as a kitchen assistant?

Well, the problem is coming!
What on earth does he want?

It can't be that you are trying to help the kitchen by looking at the hard work, right?
Or……

Is he also attracted by the food at Doraemi Kindergarten like them?

As soon as this thought came up, Lin Jiayi rejected it herself.

After all, with Chef Zheng's status and skills, he could enjoy higher treatment and respect in a higher-end restaurant. Why should he condescend to this point?

and many more……

It’s really possible!

A scene suddenly flashed through Lin Jiayi's mind. When she was working at Hujin, she heard that Chef Zheng was fortunate enough to taste the pig brain porridge and roast suckling pig made by Huang Jun during an autumn outing. He was deeply impressed by his cooking skills and had admired Huang Jun ever since.

Could it be that Chef Zheng came to apply for the job this time in order to have the opportunity to taste Huang Jun's cooking again in the future, or did he want to learn his cooking skills up close?
Of course!

She couldn't find a more reasonable explanation than this.

She picked up the phone with a look of discovery, slid her fingertips lightly across the screen, and quickly opened the editing interface of the Moments.

Words jumped on her fingertips. She carefully considered every word, wanting to express her surprise and speculation perfectly: "Guess who showed up among the many applicants for the kitchen of Doraimi Kindergarten? That's right, it was Chef Zheng, who is known for his arrogance and self-confidence and superb cooking skills! What is the purpose of his trip? Is he trying to relive Huang Jun's cooking skills, or is he eager to learn his cooking secrets up close? The truth is like a beacon in the fog. Let us look forward to its revelation together!"

Click Send.

In a moment...

Likes and comments poured in, with friends asking about Chef Jung's appearance and wondering why she knew so much about the matter.

They all replied in unison: "Because I am also applying for a teaching position at Doraimi Kindergarten today. Moreover, I am not the only one here, many colleagues are here with me. Fortunately, I have been successfully hired. Let me share this joy with you, and congratulate me..."

She looked at the comments on her phone with a smile on her face all the time, until a message from Li Huizhen came into her eyes, and her smile instantly froze in mid-air.

"Oh my god, I actually forgot to block Director Li!"

She was startled, and the angry expression on Li Huizhen's face after she saw this post immediately emerged in her mind. That face seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds, and was terribly gloomy.

To be honest, when Li Huizhen saw the circle of friends she posted and learned that the teachers and childcare workers in her kindergarten, and even the chef Zheng, whom she had always been dissatisfied with, had all gone to Dolaimi Kindergarten to apply for a job, she was indeed shocked and filled with dissatisfaction and anger.

At first, when these employees asked to resign one after another, she felt a little surprised, but she did not pay too much attention to it. After all, staff turnover is very common in the workplace, and the worst that can happen is that she can just recruit new people.

Especially Chef Zheng, she had planned to replace him, so when he proposed to resign, she approved it almost without hesitation.

But what she never expected was...

They all turned to the rival Doraimi Kindergarten...

This made her feel extremely humiliated, as if she had been slapped in the face in public. She felt angry and helpless.

She was worried that once the matter got out, she would become a laughing stock among her peers and suffer endless criticism and talk behind her back.

But the reality was before her, and she had no choice but to accept it.

Similarly, Deng Manli from Hujin Kindergarten has similar feelings.

But what can be done?

I can only bear it silently!

……

As time went by, today's teacher and childcare interviews have come to a successful conclusion, bringing a perfect end to this series of carefully planned interview processes.

At the end of the interview, Liang Yinqiu and other leaders successfully selected a group of outstanding talents who were both professional and enthusiastic from a large number of applicants with their keen and unique vision.

The achievement of this result is undoubtedly thanks to the "support" of two excellent educational institutions, Hujin Kindergarten and Government Kindergarten, which have provided high-quality teachers and childcare staff to Dolaimi Kindergarten.

Of course, the interview work does not end here, Liang Yinqiu and others still need to continue working hard.

Next, the interviews for kitchen staff will be carried out in full swing.

Compared with the recruitment of teachers and childcare workers, the recruitment conditions for kitchen helpers are relatively relaxed.

As long as the applicant holds a health certificate and has a hard-working attitude, he or she can meet the basic requirements.

Therefore, the recruitment in this stage went very smoothly, and all the vacancies were filled in a short time, so that subsequent applicants had no chance to participate in the interview, and this stage ended early.

As for the selection of assistant chef positions, Huang Jun has preliminarily shortlisted several candidates, they are Chef Zheng, Zhao Weiguang, Yu Daqing and the energetic young man Meng Hongzhe.

of course.

Whether they can successfully join the kitchen team will still need to go through the next food tasting session to be determined, at which time Huang Jun and others will make the final admission decision based on their actual performance. (End of this chapter)
