The first round was a written test, the second a face-to-face interview, with the rules of the third round yet to be revealed.
Since Agnes had stepped down, the responsibility of the promotional video fell onto Yolanda.
With Yolanda now entirely engrossed in the script, she had no time left to plot against Agnes.
This gave Agnes ample time to prepare for the written test.
Nevertheless, everyone was disappointed that Agnes had given up on the promotional project for the Tim Group. After all, the budget that the Tim Group had set aside for this was enough to make anyone's mouth water.
Everyone suspected that the director purposefully snatched this opportunity to give Agnes a hard time.
However, Agnes was unfazed. After all, she finally had a moment of peace.
But gradually, Agnes noticed that within a few days, Yolanda started causing trouble again.
She would randomly summon Agnes into her office for a lecture.
Ramona secretly told Agnes, "Agnes, you wouldn't know this, but the director's script has been rejected by the Tim Group over and over again. She's about to lose her mind."
Others whispered in agreement, "Doesn't the director know her own limitations? Did she get to where she is now through talent?
Isn't she just relying on her family's influence? Agnes, when your proposal was on the table, it was simply perfect. The director's ideas can't even compare. Based on ability alone, you should be the one in her position."
Agnes laughed it off, "Don't flatter me, I didn't even write that script."
But the flattery continued.
"Agnes, you've been bullied so badly by the director that you're afraid to show even a hint of your talent. Ah, it can't be helped, it's always been this way. Too much limelight can be deadly."
"Agnes, you can count on us, we'll always be on your side."
Agnes gave a bitter smile. As if no matter how she explained, no one would believe her.
