Chapter 351 – Episode 351

Someone among the interviewers yawned.

But no one pointed out or did anything about it. Because everyone felt the same way. Are interviews important? Who doesn’t know that?

However, I kept asking questions to more than 100 people again and again.

It was quite tiring to figure out and listen to the correct answer. This was especially true after lunch.

Boring, boring, annoying, annoying.

Until I feel sleepy…

“But AI is better than interviewing, right?”

“Oh, of course. What Manager Yeom said is correct. If AI did this, there would be an uproar. That would really turn the company upside down.”

“Even if AI technology is not a joke these days, AI cannot replace this yet.”

In order to achieve change, we must accept new cultures.

Is there anyone in this world who doesn’t know that? However, as people get older, it becomes more difficult for them to accept new things.

The same was true for Yeom Bu-min, who was in charge of the planning team. Although I often thought that AI development should be accepted positively, I often felt uncomfortable when I thought that AI would replace the jobs that people currently have.

Yeom Bu-min was also not very pleased with UL Soft’s recent efforts to focus on AI development headquarters.

Everyone else said so, but what can you do? They say they don’t like their boss. Do I feel good in front of him? If there is someone who can say that, come out. If he was that kind of guy in the first place, he wouldn’t have stayed at the company.

Even during the interview today, the interviewers who were trying to please the manager tilted their heads.

“… “What is this?”

“Iknow, right. What is this?”

“Hmm.”

Did someone secretly add it in to make me laugh out of boredom?

[Name: Hyunwoo Kim]

The resume was clean.

No, it was too clean. As if there was an error in the information and something was missing.

“Huh, that’s strange. Did the HR team make a mistake during the review process?”

After looking at the dense resumes of over 100 people, it was refreshing in a different way to see a pure white resume with only a driver’s license certificate and a level 2 computer ability.

Even his only experience is 3 months working on the development team. It’s not a planning team, it’s a development team.

“What on earth is this?”

Everyone had no choice but to tilt their heads.

A guy who worked in the development team for 3 months applied to the planning team. Why is your resume so clean? How on earth did you get to the interview?

“… Well, I guess it was a mistake, right? When I return to the HR team later, I will say something kind.”

“Sweet, but Mintrain, Mintrain… Isn’t it noisy here these days? It seems like a popular company in many ways.”

“Uh, now that I think about it…”

As I work in the same gaming industry, I have heard of Mintrain.

Ironically, they were not that interested in anything other than the company they worked for. After all, they were salaried workers.

“Then it’s even more absurd. It’s a company that’s doing well these days. There are a lot of incentives and other things provided. The company atmosphere must be good too. “Why would someone who worked on the development team apply to our company’s planning team?”

“What does this guy not know? “Isn’t he under the illusion that he can achieve great things just by joining the planning team?”

Yeombu Min, who was listening quietly, waved his hand.

“Done. It’s okay. Just take a look. Whatever it was, the documents were uploaded to here. You can’t come now and say, “Go back because it feels like something went wrong.” The interview can be viewed as an interview. Do you know anything? I wonder if a kid like this will show something unexpected again.”

Unlike people who took Kim Hyun-woo completely negatively, Manager Yeom Bu-min had a more positive attitude than expected.

“Under. In a way, old resumes were just like this. All he had was a college degree. Still, I said in front of the interviewers that I would try to get a job somehow. You can also see magic, huh? Taekwondo is also shown. I heard you made a joke and did that.”

“…”

“It is said that the person who submitted this type of resume is more earnest.”

No one could say anything while looking at Yeom Bu-min, who was drenched in nostalgia and speaking as he pleased. In that sense, what happens to the person who worked hard to add one more line to their resume?

In fact, isn’t that a measure of effort?

… Even though my heart that I wanted to say was like a chimney.

“Right! You never know!”

Everyone nodded at Director Yeom Bu-min’s words and glanced at the people entering for the interview.

‘Driving me crazy. ‘I don’t notice the other guys at all because I’m concerned differently.’

Ironically, it was Kim Hyun-woo who had already attracted attention.

Everyone looked at Kim Hyun-woo up and down with their eyes lit up, as if they were tired of it.

‘Common… No, less than that?’

‘Do you think you’re in good shape? You look physically good. ‘If you ask me to work overtime, I have a face that says I will do well without saying anything.’

‘I heard a kid like that is putting a dent in the company. As long as I don’t really fail, I’ll do well no matter what I ask.’

Manager Yeom Bu-min mutters softly.

“You look normal. “It’s so ordinary that it’s surprising.”

Everyone nodded slightly.

This time, the opinion is still the same.

‘If the interview is ordinary… ‘I won’t be selected, will I?’

No matter how much Manager Yeom Bu-min is, he won’t hire you for magic or taekwondo in 2025.

‘Unless something about baseball suddenly appears out of nowhere.’

Manager Yeom Bu-min of the planning team.

A die-hard fan of Dodde from Busan. How dare he take a plane on the weekend, go to Sajik Stadium, cheer on Dottde with his family, and then return on a day trip. There were no evil spirits crazy about baseball.

Still, it seemed to have been a bit dull until last year, but this year, when Dodde suddenly started playing running baseball, Manager Yeom Bu-min’s heart was ignited once again.

Actually, there are many people who like baseball.

Among them, how many people will accurately mention Busan’s Dodde, and what is the probability that Dodde’s Manager Yeom Bu-min will talk about his favorite person?

“How do you usually relieve stress when it builds up?”

Actually, I’m tired of this question now.

Should I say it’s boring?

But there was nothing more interesting than this question. You can learn about so many different hobbies. Pilates, yoga, etc… Then, when someone talks about hobbies similar to mine, I tend to listen better.

The person with number 134 answered first.

“Yes, I usually relieve stress by writing a plan at home. If you look at my resume and portfolio, you can see how many proposals I have written so far. I think it’s fun. “I am most happy when I am writing a plan.”

How are you? It’s crazy.

‘I’m most scared of this bastard.’

In the first place, I didn’t even know what the interviewer’s intention was.

Who would apply to the planning team and suddenly hear that writing a plan is a stress reliever? I’m going to turn around, you bastard.

‘If this guy really gets a job, he doesn’t want to work on the planning team.’

Furthermore, just because I got a job with the planning team, I think they only really do planning.

‘Ah, kids these days have really strong egos, egos. Because their parents raised them all, it was as if they could become something. Tsk.’

What kind of newbies dream big…

Even though I was thinking that to myself, the interviewer calmly nodded.

“It’s a good hobby. “If you write a plan on a regular basis, you may come up with a very good plan.”

“Thank you!”

The interviewer snorted inwardly as he looked at interviewee number 134, whom he really liked.

‘Kids these days don’t have the ability to objectify themselves. Everyone thinks they did well in the interview. It seemed like the woman who left crying earlier was much more stern.’

So, what hobbies does a guy with a clean resume have? This guy is really curious in a different way.

“Then the next person, number 135, what kind of hobby does he have… “No, how do you usually relieve stress?”

“Ah… ! “I like baseball.”

Baseball? Holy shit. A story about baseball suddenly appears here?

The interviewer who asked glanced to the side and saw Manager Yeom Bu-min’s eyes shining brightly as he clicked his pen without thinking.

‘Aw, you sure aren’t a fan of this bastard, right?’

From then on, the toss naturally went to Manager Yeom Bu-min.

He already had a smile on his face. Even though he was a die-hard fan of Dodde, he didn’t just hate other teams’ games.

“Baseball is good. So, which team are you a fan of?”

Hyunwoo Kim cautiously opened his mouth, pretending to be slightly sensitive.

“I’m cautious about talking the team. “Because I’m from Busan.”

“Busan? Busan is good. What is this guy? Then of course?”

“Ah yes! I guess in the end, you become a fan depending on the region. “I’m a fan of Dotde.”

It didn’t end there.

This bastard only gives penetrating answers that make you wonder if he was scolded by Manager Yeom Bu-min.

“Actually, I didn’t like baseball that much until two years ago. At least when I was in high school and Dodde was famous as a big hitter, my father liked baseball, so I just followed him.”

“Oh, but how did you get into baseball?”

“Especially recently, what should I say? Dotde becomes a member of the team that actively participates in running. “I happened to come across it as a highlight and it was so touching.”

“Oh, right. “I think I already know who it is.”

“After I fell in love with it, I paid for the OTT site separately and watched it live occasionally, if not every day. Really…”

“Really?”

“I think I would like to have a go at intuition at least once. My hometown is in Busan, and Sajik Stadium is also close by.”

“Okay! Hey guy, you have to go and watch baseball intuitively. If it were Sajik Stadium, I would have said everything. How could you not know that? This really makes me feel like Chaam…”

The interviewers cleared their throats slightly.

Manager Yeom Bu-min is excited, which is good for them, but even so, they like it too openly. It’s not an interview question, but at this level, you’d think we were having a private conversation in a café.

Yeombu Min also felt sorry and shook his head.
Still, I had to ask the last question.

“Well, this is a personal question.”

“Yes!”

“Who do you like best in Dotde?”

“Oh, that’s… It’s the devil. I like Maseong Wang Seongbin the most. I was really impressed by the scene where he only had to slide three times to score one point. It seeped in, a lot.”

I know. It seems like it’s really soaked in, already.

Honey drips from Director Yeom Bu-min’s eyes. I don’t know if I’ll forget it or treat it differently once I get a job.

Right now, I could see that my liking for Kim Hyun-woo had risen to the top of my head.

‘But you never know.’

Because Manager Yeom Bu-min likes it so much.

On the contrary, other interviewers ended up taking the other interviewees’ side. If you are selected in this way, other interviewees may feel unfair.

‘If he talks nonsense in response to the serious questions that follow, he won’t pass, no matter how much Director Yeom Bu-min likes him.’

It was good.

The interviewer once asked a question to test Kim Hyun-woo. Interviewees 134 and 136 were not even considered.

“Well then, there you are. Not necessarily another company… “Can you tell me why you applied to ULSoft’s planning team?”

What if some bullshit comes out here?

“Oh, the reason for that is because I really like ULSoft’s game called Gloria.”

“Hmm.”

The atmosphere cooled down due to Kim Hyun-woo’s boring answer. No, some of the interviewers had faces that said, ‘Of course, that’s true.’ How many times do they think they have heard that answer…

“Gloria’s initial intention was not what it is now.”

“… “What?”

“I thought Gloria’s initial intentions were…”

The words that came out of Kim Hyun-woo’s mouth after that were enough to stimulate the nostalgia of people who were more than exaggerated.

Gloria’s initial plan.

That’s right.

The character that made them decide to join UL Soft was the character they worked hard to raise by making cacti in a PC room where smoking was allowed in the past. The game that made people crazy.

That was Gloria.

Ah… Since when did we forget about that? Since when did they start trying to suck out the marrow of users while only thinking about maximum operating profit?

Before we knew it, even the interviewers except Manager Yeom Bu-min were soaking in Kim Hyun-woo’s answers.

At that time, Kim Hyun-woo drove a wedge.

“I applied to this company because I wanted to see with my own eyes a game like Gloria at the time being made, or because I wanted to be involved in some way.”

The interviewers’ hearts were pounding.

… That’s strange. Why does this guy look so attractive all of a sudden?
