Chapter 26: Trial Post, Merit-Based Promotion
Jiang Qin had worked at the factory for over twenty years, and this was the first time she wrote a recommendation letter for someone.
That day, Tian Xiang was relentless against Lu Feng. She admired the young girl’s persistence; the matter with Lu Feng was handled courageously and wisely. Within just ten days, she caught Lu Feng’s weakness, which was quite clever. Their factory was about to establish an Internal Affairs group, precisely in need of someone like her, so she wrote a recommendation letter for her.
The customary practice at the five major factories is large-scale job postings, but for smaller hiring needs, internal absorption is preferred.
After all, there are now more people than jobs, and opportunities must take care of one’s own people.
This new group has only two positions; before writing the recommendation letter for Tian Xiang, there was already a private discussion, deciding on one male and one female candidate.
Candidates were selected from factory offspring who were unemployed, following the queue order.
That day, when Jiang Qin received the list handed up to her, before signing it, Tian Xiang approached her.
In the end, the situation changed; she signed next to Chen Yong’s name, another name was crossed off, and the spot was given to Tian Xiang.
This approach by Jiang Qin wasn’t against the rules.
According to above regulations, hiring is meant to be open to society, but due to long-standing habits, everyone tacitly leaves some spots for their own people.
She mentioned this matter to Director Li specifically, saying she had someone else in mind and would only pick one from the offspring’s quota this time.
