The 12 interviewees gathered again in the conference room.
It was to receive final notification.
Soon Kim Cheol-soo, Park Dong-gyu, and Han Jeong-rim entered the conference room, and the once cluttered conference room suddenly became quiet.
“It’s nice to meet you again. First of all, I would like to sincerely thank you for participating in the three-day interview. When you leave, Han Jeong-rim will give you the interview fee.”
When everyone nodded, Kim Cheol-soo placed the documents he had brought on the podium and called the team leader of Team 1.
“Mr. Jang Sang-hoon.”
“yes!”
The young man raised his hand.
“Do you know anything about campus xx?”
“yes? “What is that?”
Kim Cheol-soo tilted his head as he looked at Jang Sang-hoon who was questioning him.
It was because he looked like he really didn’t know.
Either he’s a great facial expression actor or he really doesn’t know.
“This is the report submitted by Team 1. “It was a graduation research project report from the Department of Business Administration at xx University.”
“yes? No way···.”
Sang-Hoon Jang woke up with his eyes wide and turned his head towards Team 3 in the corner.
– Ah, there was such a situation…
– Yes, so I definitely need to get a job, but as you know, team 3 is hopeless.
– Well, that’s true. An elderly foreigner with tattoos and no experience at all. It seems a bit of a waste for Gyeong-jeon.
– If one team is selected, I think Sang-hoon will be promoted to the position of manager…
– Hahaha, if I get selected…
– Then, can you get me a job later?
– Oh, that’s a bit much.
– Heeing. Would you like to take a look at this? This is a report I prepared just in case. Our team doesn’t know the value. If you get a job through this, I hope you give me a chance too. Well, not just work, but other things as well.
– Hmm… Well, let’s take a look.
I had forgotten.
The members of Team 1 were busy grumbling.
I was busy criticizing how unfair the interview assignment was to create something worth making money in two days.
We had to produce results, but we were in a situation where we couldn’t come up with the right opinions.
Inevitably, Jang Sang-hoon brought the report given by Song Jin-young.
I started revising the report that had already been created by discussing it with my team members.
A report that anyone could read with a ‘Oh’ response was completed, and the team members were satisfied.
Song Jin-young, who made eye contact with Jang Sang-hoon, smiled and winked.
‘That crazy bitch…!’
After sighing deeply, Sang-Hoon Jang turned his head and looked at Cheol-Soo Kim.
“Do you have an excuse?”
“that is···. “Oh, no.”
Kim Cheol-soo said, waving the report they submitted.
“The value of this report was set at 5,000 won. “You can download the report for 5,000 won.”
Jang Sang-hoon bowed his head.
“I actually feel pretty bad. Don’t do this at other companies. “No place ever selects people roughly.”
Teams 2 and 3 erupted in muffled laughter, but Song Jin-young’s laughter seemed to be especially loud in Jang Sang-hoon’s ears.
As the laughter died down, Kim Cheol-soo continued to announce the results.
“··· So Team 2 set a price of 50 million won. “Well done.”
Team 2 leader Yang Young-sook smiled and bowed her head.
“thank you.”
First of all, because the price was much higher than Team 1, Team 2 looked at Team 3 with relieved eyes.
Looking at the members of Team 3, it seemed unlikely that they would produce a report worth more than 50 million won.
Team 2’s expectations grew higher and higher.
“Team leader of team 3. Mr. Robert.”
Robert stood up.
Cheolsu Kim waved Team 3’s report and turned his attention to Robert.
“Who suggested this?”
Robert, who had thought of answers to various variables, answered right away.
“If I intend to praise you, I will tell you who suggested it, but if not, I, the team leader, will take full responsibility.”
Cheolsu Kim looked at Robert silently with strange eyes.
“Is that so? “Do you know that the value of this report depends on the judgment of the parties involved?”
“yes. I know.”
“Do you also know that the value of this report could be 0 won?”
At Kim Cheol-soo’s words, the faces of all members of Team 3 turned earthy.
However, Robert nodded without any significant change in expression.
“Mr. Park Dong-gyu.”
Park Dong-gyu, who was suddenly called, stood up hesitantly.
“Yes, team leader.”
“Did you tell Song Jin-young what time the general manager would leave work?”
“Well, that is…”
Park Dong-gyu looked at Kim Cheol-soo with anxious eyes.
‘How did you know?’

“··· Yes, that’s right.”
Everyone looked around, not knowing what was happening.
“Mr. Kang Yun-sik.”
“yes.”
“Have you met my wife?”
“yes. That’s right.”
Choi Hye-na suddenly invited me to appear on TV.
And Ahn Jeong-gyu, who called me for no reason and proposed an unknown project.
As soon as he read the report in his hand, the puzzle of everything came together in Kim Cheol-soo’s mind.
“Mr. Lee Gyeong-jeon.”
Lee Gyeong-jeon, who was embarrassed when the secret work that was carried out was suddenly revealed, stuttered and answered.
I thought Team Leader Kim Cheol-soo would never know.
‘what? ‘How did you find out all that?’
“··· yes.”
“You wrote a good self-introduction, but your report is even better. “I was impressed.”
“Oh, thank you.”
Lee Kyung-jeon scratched his head at the unexpected compliment.
“This has become really difficult. From now on, please be sure to consult with me, the team leader. Mr. Robert.”
Kim Cheol-soo said with a smile.
His warm tone of voice made the smiles on the faces of Team 2 disappear, and smiles appeared on the faces of Robert and Team 3.
“We will do that in the future.”
Robert bowed his head and answered, and Kim Cheol-soo also nodded.
“Team 3’s report cannot be disclosed as confidential because it is a project to be carried out by the company. However, the value of the report they brought is about 5 billion won.”
People gasped when they heard the word 5 billion won.
“Team 1 and 2 people. Thank you for participating in this difficult interview task. “Please return safely.”
Some people tried to object, but Kim Cheol-soo’s expression was too firm.
When Park Dong-gyu quickly opened the conference room door, they left the conference room, looking at Team 3 with envious eyes.
When they left, Kim Cheol-soo looked at the remaining four people and said.
“Now it’s the last moment. Mr. Robert.”
Robert stood up again and looked around at his teammates.
I want to stay
1 out of 4 people.
The probability is 25%.
Robert looked at each member of the team.
Song Jin-young and Kang Yun-sik’s expressions were full of desperation.
Lee Kyung-jeon had a calm expression.
He was the most necessary person in the company to run the team properly.
Gathering information, filling out paperwork, calculating.
And it had the ability to most accurately identify various anticipated difficulties.
Although Song Jin-young used cowardly and shallow tactics, he carried out his work in a creative way and tackled the task with the greatest enthusiasm.
He was a person who would become a great talent if he could control it well and not let his desires go astray.
Kang Yun-sik was having deep regrets about his life that had gone astray.
I had more experience than I expected, but in fact, nothing much stood out on the surface during this assignment.
If I drop someone here…
That was Kang Yun-sik.
‘but···.’
Everyone had a story.
They were people with both desperation and possibility.
It was amazing to have an interview like this at a Korean company, and for three days, Robert felt like he was back in his youth.
In the Korean corporate culture that prioritizes organization over individuality, will you really be able to have fun working as much as you do now?
‘This is all…’
After organizing his thoughts, Robert looked at Kim Cheol-soo with a calm expression.
Robert pondered for longer than expected, and Kim Cheol-soo waited until he opened his mouth.
“I have decided.”
Song Jin-young and Kang Yun-sik looked at Robert with earnest expressions.
‘please···!’
“Interviewer.”
“yes.”
“But why don’t you choose people to work with you yourself?”
“It’s about efficiency.”
“Can you explain?”
“I think this way. “Rather than having the team members adapt to me, it would be more efficient to create a well-organized team and adapt myself to it.”
“okay.”
Robert nodded.
Although he did not know everything about the physiology of Korean companies, the president and executives knew a lot.
Among them was the chairman of a famous large company.
Considering the sense of authority they displayed while drinking, the young interviewer in front of me seemed to be a bit different from them.
I heard that companies in the category of ‘general trading companies’ that originated in Japan have quite strong organizational cultures.
‘It means you hit yourself.’
I thought that he would probably be the most suitable team leader for those with strong personalities.
“Those who are eliminated.”
Robert said calmly.
“That’s me.”
Lee Gyeong-jeon sighed lightly as if he had expected it, and Kang Yun-sik bowed his head while holding both hands tightly.
Song Jinyoung stood up suddenly.
“This doesn’t seem right.”
Everyone looked at Song Jinyoung.
“I don’t know by what criteria Mr. Robert is disqualifying himself, but among these people, there is someone who has contributed the least. Kang Yun-sik, don’t you think so?”
He thought it was fortunate, but when Song Jin-young pointed out something to him, Kang Yun-sik’s expression hardened.
Song Jin-young provided the idea, Robert persuaded Saju, and Lee Gyeong-jeon collected data and created a report.
When I thought about it, Song Jinyoung’s words were not wrong.
‘How did I seize this opportunity…?’
I was very greedy, but I also didn’t like the fact that Robert, who had achieved great results by leading this unique team, was leaving on his own.
Meanwhile, Lee Gyeong-jeon, who liked Kang Yun-sik, who is strong and mature both externally and internally, gave his voice.
“Song Jin-young. Have you ever thought that someone like you could one day cause great harm to the team? You have to compete fairly, your approach is not right. “I think you should get out.”
“I beg your pardon? “If it weren’t for me, our team wouldn’t have made it to the end!”
“If it weren’t for Robert, no one would have picked up your idea.”
“You just sit down and type. “What did you do right?”
Lee Gyeong-jeon jumped up as if he had a fever.
“I just typed? “Are you really saying that because you don’t know?”
Robert, who was watching the fight that seemed like it was about to escalate, raised his arms and made a calming gesture.
“Two people. stop it.”
When Robert spoke, the two stopped talking and only pouted their lips as if they were holding back their anger.
“Good. Can we control each other’s strengths and weaknesses so that we don’t go astray when working together? “Just because we think differently doesn’t mean we don’t agree.”
“···.”
“···.”
“Seeing you express your opinions so actively, I think you suit me well. “I think the two of us will be doing a lot of things together in the future.”
Robert calmly persuaded them, and Kim Cheol-soo did not intervene and just watched.
at that time.
-Jiying.
Kim Cheol-soo’s cell phone vibrated, and he opened it to check the text message and immediately responded.
– Come on in.
“But rules are rules. “You chose me, so I don’t want you to argue anymore about this.”
All three looked at Robert with regretful expressions.
Robert made light eye contact with Kim Cheol-soo, then turned and started walking out of the conference room.
“Mr. Robert.”
Kim Cheol-soo called him.
In fact, Kim Cheol-soo was very excited after seeing Team 3’s report.
Four people who have never worked together before.
The time given was only two days.
A situation where there is no other support.
I thought a report from two teams would be the best.
However, Team 3 brought back a report that far exceeded their expectations.
They gave a value of 5 billion won in their report, but in fact, that was a price excluding the brand value of Hanyoung General Trading Company, which would rise.
Robert turned around, and the others also focused their attention on Kim Cheol-soo.
“Yes, team leader.”
Kim Cheol-soo has been thinking that way for a long time.
As I see respectable seniors retiring before their 60s, I wonder if such a method is really reasonable for management.
What value will their countless experiences, connections, and years of leadership bring to the company?
In fact, it wasn’t the kind of thing that could be pounded out with a calculator, so I was just guessing in my head.
And a little while ago.
It was clear that Robert was the center of the team’s chemistry.
“Please sit down and wait for a moment.”
Everyone had no idea what Kim Cheol-soo was thinking, and Robert nodded and sat back down in his seat.
At that time, the conference room door opened and a middle-aged woman came in.
It was Jo Yoon-jeong.
“welcome. Managing Director.”
She received Kim Cheol-soo’s greeting and stood next to him.
“Wow, you have a knack for making people wait.”
“The interview just ended.”
Jo Yoon-jeong glanced at the interviewees.
And then my gaze stopped at Robert, who was occupying one seat.
Then he approached Kim Cheol-soo and whispered.
“Are you really planning on hiring that foreigner? “There will be an uproar in the HR department.”
“I guess so.”
“But it seems like someone I’ve seen a lot of somewhere.”
“We will decide whether or not to hire you later.”
Jo Yoon-jeong nodded and opened her mouth to the interviewees.
“hello. “This is Executive Director Cho Yoon-jeong, head of SKY Teletech’s development division.”
Jo Yoon-jeong took the design she received from Kim Cheol-soo to the company and held a meeting with the design team.
Everyone responded well, and it was decided to bring in the person who drew this design and apply it to the first work.
As the DNA of the design of products that will come from generation to generation.
SKY Teletech was a subsidiary of Hanyoung Corporation.
Since it was a company that had nothing to do with the recruitment announcement, all the interviewees were confused.
“I came here because there was a talent that I really needed. “I wanted to contact him personally and have him come to work starting yesterday.”
Everyone looked at Jo Yoon-jeong’s words and tilted their heads.
“Mr. Kang Yun-sik. “Who is it?”
When Jo Yoon-jeong called his name, Kang Yun-sik opened his eyes and looked surprised.
I thought as I slowly raised my hand.
‘I’m a talented person?’
Both Song Jin-young and Lee Kyung-jeon opened their eyes wide and looked at Kang Yun-sik.
“I took a good look at the design they sent. Instead of wasting your youth in a strange place like the corporate operations team, how about changing your future with me? Our design team wants you.”
Song Jin-young turned his head and looked at Kang Yun-sik.
‘Design?’
Kyung-jeon Lee also looked at Kang Yun-sik with similar thoughts.
Robert nodded, looking at Kang Yun-sik, who was slightly frozen due to the sudden suggestion.
‘yes. ‘I thought there might have been something.’
Kang Yun-sik turned his eyes and saw his teammates looking at him.
Design was a field I wanted to pursue and I was confident in it.
In fact, the corporate operations team was not a good fit for him.
‘You said three people, right? If I go over there, no one will be eliminated, right?’
Kang Yun-sik realized why Kim Cheol-soo turned Robert away.
Song Jinyoung opened his mouth.
“This is a great opportunity for Mr. Yunsik. “Save us all.”
“Yes?”
Kang Yun-sik nodded, stood up and looked at Jo Yun-jeong.
“Design is what I wanted to do. So I want to do it.”
“I really like your answer.”
Jo Yoon-jeong answered with a smile and then looked at Kim Cheol-soo.
“You don’t mind if I take that friend, right?”
“If you just take the sweet water and kick them out, they will protest.”
“ha ha ha. Don’t even think about taking it away. Okay then, I’ll just leave. “He’s already a busy person and I really don’t like the team leader.”
Kim Cheol-soo smiled and nodded.
“Mr. Kang Yun-sik. “Pack your bags and come with me.”
“Oh, I understand. “Can you give me a moment?”
When Jo Yoon-jeong nodded, Kang Yun-sik looked at his teammates and bent his waist to 90 degrees.
“If the opportunity arises someday, I would like to work together. “Thank you very much.”
Kang Yun-sik looked especially grateful to Robert.
“You wanted to give me a chance. “I will definitely remember it.”
“It went well. I didn’t know what Yunsik was good at, so I guess I was really lacking. Your skills must be so great that an executive can personally come and take you with them. “It went really well.”
“thank you. Mr. Robert.”
Jo Yoon-jeong left with Kang Yun-sik, and Kim Cheol-soo stood in front of the podium again.
“There are three left.”
Cheolsu Kim said while looking at Robert.
“Mr. Robert.”
“yes.”
“Do you still want to leave the conference room?”
“Actually, I have one concern.”
“Please tell me.”
“I don’t know if I can really have fun in a rigid organizational culture.”
Kim Cheol-soo glanced at Han Jeong-rim, who was diligently writing something down in the back corner of the conference room.
One of the biggest weapons of general trading companies was the monopoly on information.
However, as the Internet spread, the weapon’s edge became dull, and with the advent of smartphones, this weapon would become obsolete.
The organizational culture of general trading companies made it impossible to respond to this rapid change, and eventually they began to be eliminated.
Kim Cheol-soo had no intention of becoming the president of a defunct general trading company.
Instead, I wanted to make Hanyoung General Trading Company a top-notch company.
To do this, the company’s organizational and team culture had to be changed.
However, just by persuading management, such a culture cannot be created in an instant.
Rather, when you produce visible results, people become interested in the team’s culture.
“If that’s the case, then it’s probably pointless to worry. Starting with our team, many things will change at Hanyoung Corporation. “We will make it happen, and the company will have to accept the change.”
It was a charismatic answer.
And I really liked the word ‘we’.
I don’t know what he will do next, but my heart warms.
“then···.”
Temperature of passion.
I thought I had already cooled off as I got older.
“I really want to stay.”
