Chapter 920: Morning interview
In the early morning, Atherton, although the birds in the dense trees on both sides of the road were very active, they still gave a feeling of tranquility.
Marisa Mayer parked the car on the side of the road, confirmed the address, and pushed the door off.
She woke up less than five o'clock today and spent more than an hour carefully preparing for this meeting this morning. Through this period of understanding, she knows that Eric Williams is a very free-spirited person in many ways. Since the other party called her to come over for breakfast, Marissa Mayer has already determined that she It is estimated that it is already getting the job.
The efforts of this month have not been in vain.
A month ago, she learned that the assistant office of Eric Williams needed to recruit a new assistant, and immediately moved her mind. Since high school, she has planned her own future. She abandoned her law school and preferred her computer science. In addition to her own interests, she also noticed the broad prospects for the rapid development of the IT industry.
Originally, she did not plan to enter the workplace in advance. Although she got a bachelor's degree in computer science from a well-known federal university in Stanford University, she knew that now she can only start from a basic programmer when she enters the workplace. Even if luck is good, if you want to be a top executive of a company, it is estimated that it will be ten years and eight years later.
But if you can get the position of the assistant office of Eric Williams, then everything is different.
Two months ago, she saw from the Yahoo portal that Eric Williams’ former assistant Peter Ritchie was the deputy general manager of the advertising marketing department of FFM TV. Before that, Eric Williams Another former assistant, Alan Fisman, is now the vice president of ABC Group.
From these two examples, as long as they can enter the assistant office of Eric Williams and get the attention of the other party, then after a few years, she will be able to easily obtain a middle management in the company of the firefly system. At the same time, the promotion speed is definitely faster than other managers.
In this regard, even if she continues to get a master's degree from Stanford University, and then start from a higher-level senior engineer, to achieve the same position, it is not achieved in three or five years.
Therefore, although the recruitment notice requires applicants to have a master's degree or higher, Marisa Mayer still decided to try it. She not only carefully prepared her resume, but also took it from several prestigious professors at Stanford University. I came to a personal recommendation letter.
However, although she was full of confidence, she sent her resume for the first time. Because her education did not meet the requirements, she quickly received a phone call for rejection.
She didn't feel discouraged and spent a lot of time. A week later, through a professor at the school, she contacted Peter Ritchie, who happened to be the professor's proud student. Under the professor's recommendation, Peter Ritchie promised to help her submit her resume to Kelly Haynes, the head of the Eric Williams assistant office. Perhaps she was impressed by her persistence, and Kelly Haynes gave her an interview. Opportunity, she also successfully passed the interview of the other party and entered the final round of the candidate list.
As the only undergraduate graduate on the list of candidates, plus some of her guesses about the character of Eric Williams, she believes that she can certainly attract the attention of the other party.
The reality did not really disappoint her.
The only thing that made her hesitate is that Eric Williams is a well-known playboy. She is very confident about her appearance. If she invites her to date, she does not know whether she should agree or refuse. Or, if you want to catch the appetite of the other person properly.
Forget it, let's talk about it later.
Looking down again, I looked at my clothes again. Because the other party invited her to have breakfast, Marisa Mayer was not too formal, the upper body was a camel sweater and the bottom was a white trousers. Wearing a pair of black stiletto heels on the feet, the whole person is a bit more capable, but there is no lack of sexiness.
Looking up at the mansion in front of him, Marisa Mayer had some envy in her eyes, and she couldn’t help but start calculating, what kind of position she needed to buy this mansion.
Thinking about it, she reached out and ringed the doorbell. After a while, she saw a very petite girl turning out from the small road in the mansion and walking to the front door.
This is a delicate girl like a doll, only one meter long, and wearing a sweater and slacks, but in different colors.
Marissa Mayer was just glad that the two had no shirts, and her face suddenly became uncomfortable. This girl, yes, sure, will not be an adult, it seems to be only 13 or four years old. Marisa Mayer does not want to touch the private affairs of these rich people who are not enough for outsiders.
"Hello, Miss Meyer, Eric is already waiting for you."
Caroline opened the door to let Marisa Mayer come in, politely greeted, and noticed the unnatural expression on the other's face. Carolyn was a little embarrassed, she was not the first time she encountered such a thing. Naturally, I can easily guess the heart of Marisa Mayer. I don’t want to misunderstand Eric. Caroline took the initiative to introduce: "I am Eric’s assistant, Carolyn Wilson."
The doubts in Marisa Mayer’s mind did not dissipate. She only realized that she was in a state of disobedience. She quickly put away her expression and smiled and shook hands with Caroline. “Hello, Miss Wilson.”
"Call me, Carly, please come with me, breakfast will be fine, you can talk to Eric first," Caroline led Meyer to the yard.
When they entered the villa together, Caroline came to the gym with Marisa Mayer and said, "Eric, Miss Meyer is here."
Marisa Mayer saw a man in a sports vest shorts leaning against their treadmill and gently put a hand on it. Caroline made a gesture to her: "Let's go, Miss Meyer. ""
Marissa Mayer put her shoulder bag on the table at the door and walked into the spacious gym. She turned her head and looked at it. Caroline smiled and nodded at her and turned and left.
Walking alone to Eric, Marisa Mayer remembered the series of achievements that men might not be able to achieve in a lifetime. It is inevitable that they are still restrained. I have not forgotten that this is actually an interview, thinking about each other quickly. What kind of boring problems might arise.
Well, she might be standing next to her for ten minutes to test her patience.
Thinking of this possibility, Marisa Mayer could not help but straighten her waist, relax her face, smile at the corner of her mouth, and make herself look more confident.
Eric was obviously not a strict interviewer. He noticed that Meyer walked over to him, nodded at her, pressed a few buttons on the front, and the treadmill slowly stopped.
Marisa Mayer saw Eric sweating down from the treadmill and glimpsed the towel on the shelf next to it, naturally reaching for it and handing it over.
"Thank you."
Eric took a thank you, wiped the sweat from his face, and looked at the girl in front of him.
Eric’s original memory does not have much information about Marissa Mayer, only knowing the other two identities, Google’s senior executives and Yahoo’s CEO, but this is enough. In this man-dominated world, as a woman, she can be the head of a world's top 500 women. In any case, her ability is absolutely outstanding. It is certainly more than enough to serve as an office assistant.
Yesterday I saw Marisa Meyer's resume, and Eric knew more about her. This is a female schoolmaster who took the first place from small to large. Kelly's evaluation of Marissa Mayer in interview comments is also very high, calm, persistent, thoughtful and good at communication. Well, there are two personality traits that are both controllable and aggressive.
Simply wiped the sweat, Eric hung the towel around his neck and looked at his eyes without looking at his eyes. "You are beautiful."
Meyer originally waited for Eric's possible problems. When he looked at himself, he came up with such a sentence. Some unexpected, but hesitant, smiled and responded: "Thank you for your compliment, William. Mr. Si."
Although he said this, Mayer was a little disappointed in his heart. He hired himself not only for her appearance?
This is not a good thing, she does not want to be treated as a vase just like the petite girl. She doesn't know about Caroline, although she is often praised as a Barbie doll. But it will not feel that the petite girl like the doll can have any ability to work.
However, in a blink of an eye, she made up her mind, anyway, to get the job first.
If Eric Williams doesn't pay attention to her talents at the time, she can still change jobs. She is an assistant in the assistant office of Eric Williams. She is also a very bright work experience, but she can't find it. a good job.
Eric praised Meyer and went outside the gym. Meyer also took the initiative to follow.
When I came to the living room, Eric said to Meyer: "You sit for a while, I will take a shower."
Marisa Mayer nodded and watched Eric walk up the stairs on the second floor. She went to the sofa and sat down, looking at the villa curiously.
The mind calmed down, and the shivering conversation in the kitchen was not far away. She didn't hear anything clearly, nor was she too curious. She just began to ponder Eric's every move.
This guy who is about to become his own boss, um, not harsh, not rude, courteous, although most people will basically behave like this for the first time, but she is still confident that she can distinguish whether a person’s behavior is a pretzel or This is the case, so he should get along very well. However, she praised her beautifully directly, and the **** is sure, but his figure is really good.
Feeling that she was a little worried, she quickly put away her mind.
Caroline walked out of the kitchen again. Meyer took the initiative to stand up and pointed to the direction of the kitchen. He said, "Carly, can I help you?"
“Thank you, but the breakfast is ready,” Caroline looked around and asked, “What about Eric?”
Marisa Mayer pointed to the stairs: "He finished his exercise and went to take a shower."
"Oh, let's go to the restaurant first. I will introduce you to Melanie. She is also an assistant to Eric."
Eric simply took a shower, changed clothes and went downstairs. The three girls in the restaurant had already chatted hotly.
"What are you talking about?" Smiled and sat down at the table, Eric asked curiously.
"Nothing."
Carolyn, who was closest to Eric, shook his head and stood up with Melanie, one to the kitchen for breakfast, and one to put today's newspaper in front of Eric.
Marisa Mayer was still surprised that she had just heard that Caroline and the two women were all Harvard Business School graduates. They turned into two little maids in a blink of an eye, and they quickly got up and saw Eric’s eyes. Falling in the newspaper, without opening, he consciously followed Melanie to the kitchen to help with the breakfast.
With a small basket of bread coming out with Melanie, Meyer looked at her and Caroline stood on both sides of Eric, one pouring milk and one omelet, which seemed to be 'a tacit understanding'. Suddenly, my heart began to be nervous. I will not do these little things in the future.
Although she thought so, she felt that she had involuntarily joined in, picked up the bread folder and put a piece of bread in the plate in front of Eric, and asked: "Mr. Williams, is that enough?"
Eric just opened the "San Francisco Chronicle" in his hand, heard Mayer's question, looked up and looked at both sides, said: "You all sit, I will come by myself."
Melanie divided an omelette into Eric's plate. When I heard Eric's words, I couldn't help my heart: the hypocritical boss, we all got it, you have to come by yourself, too sincere. . Of course, she only dared to think about it. When she looked at Carolyn's busy face with a satisfying expression on her face, she even hated iron.
Eric quickly browsed the San Francisco Chronicle. If he didn't find any important news, he put the newspaper over it and took a sip of milk. He looked at Meyer and said, "I saw it on my resume yesterday. Have you got a graduate admission letter in the field of artificial intelligence?"
Except for the details, the atmosphere in the restaurant was very relaxing, and Marisa Mayer did not perform too formal, and naturally nodded: "Yes."
"Then read it," Eric nodded, said the exit, noticed the disappointment in Mayer's eyes, and added with a smile: "I mean, while taking care of this job, I hope that you can take it at the same time. Going to the master's degree, is there a problem?"
Most American colleges and universities are in-service graduate students. Although Marisa Mayer doesn't know much about Stanford's information, she still does not hesitate to hear that she has already got the job of Eric's office assistant. Nod, said: "No problem, but Mr. Williams, I feel that I am now qualified for the upcoming job. Is it necessary to continue to graduate?"
