That answer was way more solid than all those flashy but empty words.
The applicant's voice sounded somewhat familiar like he’d heard it somewhere before.
Quinton looked up, his pupils dilating in an instant... Isn't this Ellinor?!
Ellinor smiled at him, relaxed and natural.
Quinton came back to his senses and recalled Ellinor being somewhat disrespectful to the key members of the company, which left a bad taste in his mouth.
"Ms. Mendoza, what are you doing here?"
"Applying for a job!"
Quinton frowned even more, "You're applying to be the Executive Secretary to the CEO?"
Ellinor nodded confidently, "Yes!"
Quinton didn't like Ellinor and suspected she had ulterior motives. He said coldly, "I'm sorry, but the CEO probably wouldn't want you to be his Executive Secretary. You can leave now. Next!"
Ellinor didn't move and kept smiling, "How do you know the CEO wouldn't want me as his secretary?"
Quinton was about to speak, but Ellinor beat him to the punch, "Are you guessing?"
Quinton was speechless.
"So the company isn't very strict about recruitment? Can interviewers decide applicants' fate based on subjective guesses about the boss's preferences rather than evaluating the applicants' abilities?"
Quinton found Ellinor quite difficult to deal with, "So what do you suggest?"
Ellinor sat up straight, "I hope you can take a serious look at my CV and evaluate whether I'm qualified to join your company. If not, please give me a valid reason for my rejection."
