There’s nothing funny or casual about being employee of the month. The best employee of each lunar cycle has their picture put up on the wall, and that is the true goal of practically everyone who works here, probably. Right now, it’s been my picture for three months running, and it’s only been that amount of time because I’ve only been here for three months.
I owe a lot to the recruitment process. Almost a year without a job, and finally, I caught my break. Marketing recruitment in Melbourne is truly a godsend, especially since my resumes had been rejected, time and time again. Perhaps it was because my English is not the best, to the point where I have to have even this blog point proofread, but I was determined to be the best marketing employee I could be. I learned all the terms, took all the courses and even went to a special marketing retreat where we were made to walk eleven miles every day while carrying buckets on our heads and reciting various complex marketing terms. Sensei was tough, but extremely fair. I trained my body and mind to perfection in the marketing realm, and still, I had nothing. No bites, probably due to my terrible resume. Perhaps I should’ve chosen the Fine English Skills Mountain Retreat Program instead, though I only had the funds for one.
But thanks to marketing recruitment and a good word from my very well-connected sensei, I have my first job. I am predicted to rise to the top in mere months…months I will spend as employee of the month. I do not waste my opportunities. And one day, I shall become the head of my OWN administration recruitment place in Melbourne, where I will give some other poor soul the chance they deserve. To give back is the essence of the soul…so said my sensei.
