Chapter 2
(The interview)
The next day, I decided to submit my file for a new job as I can't continue working at The Smith's industry anymore, I can't bear seeing Henry with another Woman, I'm gonna resign today. Well, I have to tell you more about me right? I am Abby Jones, brunette haired, olive skinned, 5''6 feets tall, I'm not that chubby and I have a curvey and sexy body and almond shaped light brown eyes. Believe me I know I'm pretty, but I can't even get the man of my dreams so what's the use. I am a research analyst and I worked for The Smith's industry, but now, I just can't work there anymore you know, my fiance Henry Smith decided to call it off for the both of us. My parents Mr.Elias and Mrs Hailey Jones were workaholics, they did their best in promoting Coleen company making it one of the leading recommended advertising companies in Seattle city America. My parents never really had enough time for me ever since I was a toddler making me miss some important aspect of my life. They ensure I get everything but they never showed me the love I've longed to experience. No one showed me love except Jane, Jane is my college bestie and she's a med. Laboratory Scientist, working at one of the top diagnosis in New York. Central Field Diagonal. I never returned home to my parents after my college except it's an urgent family business, whenever I returned to Seattle, I recall those ugly past memories and I really never want to feel or recall my childhood filled with loneliness and sadness. When I thought I was given a chance to be loved, Henry decided to prove how loveless I am. I sighed and splashed water on my face. I took my shower, I switched into my work clothes, a white long sleeve blouse and a black mermaid designed knee length skirt that clung to my body like a second skin. I never went anywhere with my wristwatch as I'm a time conscious person. I packed my hair in a neat ponytail and applied my light make up with glossy pink lip balm. I collected my file and my black handbag with a low heels black slippers and then I left for the door. I drove my brown maserati car to Golden T. Industry, it's one of the best company so far in New York and their workers were qualified and devoted staffs. They pay hugely and I heard that the C.E.O of the company is very young and short tempered, but I don't really care, all I need now is the job. I arrived at the skyscraper building with a large mordernized environment. I gasped at how huge and beautiful the company was, I walked to the receptionist after losing my way thrice and directed by an older lady.
"Excuse me, I'm Abby Jones and I was given an appointment for an interview." I said to the receptionist who dialed some numbers speaking to someone, I admired my environment, this place is really cool and it looks like some kind of a dream.
"Miss Jones, 12th floor by your left." She directed me and I thanked her as I found my way to the elevator. It took me to the 12th floor, I took my left as directed by the receptionist.
"Excuse me, please where is Mrs Maurice's office?" I asked a blonde middle aged woman who directed me to Mrs Maurice's office, Mrs Maurice was the lady that asked me to show up by 8:00 am sharp for the interview. I glanced at my wristwatch and it's already 7:34 am, I can feel fidgety already, this place looks intimidating itself. Such a huge, gigantic Industry.
*knock*
"Come in." I heard her commanding voice, I took in a deep breath and entered her office, she lifted her face to meet mine and her face held this intimidating expression, I looked down
"Good day Ma'am, it's Abby Jones, the lady you spoke with about the interview." I said and she frowned, I only spoke with her via phone call, first time meeting her in person. She stood up and asked me to follow her which i did. She took me to large hall filled with different people and then she left. I walked to the desk at the right and collected my number, I'm number 15, and then I decided to wait for my turn. I was nervous as hell, seeing this much people for just an interview for Research analyst made me more uneasy. Soon, it was my turn as I walked into the large hall, there were 5 elderly people, 3 women and two men. I sat on the swivel chair as I was ushered.
"So miss, what's your name?" A lady in her early 40s asked with a strong gaze
"Miss Abby Jones ma'am." I answered curly
"Ever had any work experience?" She asked
"Worked for The Smith's Industry." I answered
"I completed all my institutes and I worked at a new industry for a year before The Smith's Industry." I stated in my business like tone and she nodded going through my documents and files.
"How old are you Miss Jones and your homeland?" She asked with a sharp gaze
"I'm actually 25 and I'm actually from Basel city in Switzerland but grew up at Seattle." I answered and she nodded at my answer.
"So Miss Jones, why do you really want to work for Golden.T. Industry?" She asked and I sighed
"I've always wanted to assist in the development of the country and assisting the company is also assisting both the government and individuals as well." She smirked at my answer and then nodded at me as she stood up
"Miss Jones, your interview is done, expect the feedback soon." She stated as I thanked her and left the hall. I took the elevator back to the exeact. I sighed as I'm really curious on the outcome of this interview. After seeing how comfortable, luxurious, gaily and gigantic this industry is, I really want to work here and I'm sure of it.
