I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

In a deserted alley in the metropolitan area, a figure flashed by and appeared at the deepest part of the alley.

Clark tidied his hair, then opened his phone's map app and began searching for the locations of the job markets in the metropolitan area.

Clark quickly identified the nearest job market.

At the Carroll Talent Recruitment Center, people come and go, job seekers coming and going without fear.

This is one of the top three job markets in the metropolitan area, where many large companies set up booths to recruit for urgently needed positions.

Of course, these positions are usually entry-level positions.

As for certain senior management and high-tech positions, no large company would recruit at a job fair that is held three times a week.

Clark followed the flow of people in and was immediately captivated by the various job positions available.

Although he hadn't looked closely at what positions these companies were recruiting for, the sheer number of companies recruiting was enough to amaze and shock Clark, who came from a small town.

Clark quickly devised his strategy for this job search.

He felt that he should start from the very first company and visit each one one by one!

Then mark the companies you like, compare them one by one, and then schedule interviews.

The first booth was the one closest to the entrance, so it attracted the most people.

Clark couldn't squeeze in, so he had to activate his X-ray vision mode to see through the crowd and view the job postings hanging on the partition wall.

Dixie Finance

[Hiring 50 Sales Consultants]

Job Responsibilities: Sell the company's financial services.

Job Requirements: Relevant sales experience, hardworking, willing to work overtime (overtime pay provided), and basic knowledge of the financial industry.

Clark shook his head after reading it; he didn't like sales jobs.

He felt he was not up to the task; after all, Clark was unwilling to deceive his customers in order to sell products.

Clark gave up his position at that company and went to a second one.

Buffalo Bearing Co., Ltd.

[Hiring 10 Business Specialists]

Job Responsibilities: Responsible for selling various models of bearings manufactured by our company.

Job Requirements: Relevant sales experience, hardworking, familiar with basic mechanical knowledge, and willing to travel.

"Another sales position? Forget it." Clark shook his head again and walked to the next booth.

NDSL Company

[Hiring chewing gum marketing staff]

Job Responsibilities: Responsible for promoting and selling the company's chewing gum products to supermarkets.

[Job Requirements: Sales experience, articulate, and able to adapt to a field sales approach]

Why is it sales again?

Clark felt a little upset!

He continued walking backwards...

Magellan Insurance is hiring sales staff.

Kadiya Apparel Company is hiring sales representatives.

Snow Leopard Shopping Mall is hiring sales assistants.

After visiting fifty stores in a row, Clark was covered in sweat.

Clark stared blankly at the ceiling, thinking to himself: I think I know what the end of the universe is...

He continued mechanically walking from shop to shop, selling, selling, and more selling!

After walking to the seventy-ninth booth, Clark finally saw something new.

L Limited Company

[Hiring Construction Workers]

Job Responsibilities: Follow the instructions of technicians and assist in moving goods or performing other miscellaneous tasks at the construction site.

Job Requirements: Strong, physically fit, and hardworking

[Salary and Benefits: Five days a week, eight hours a day, $150 USD per day]

[Note: Overtime work will be paid at 1.5 times the normal wage.]

$150 a day!

Overtime work will be paid at 1.5 times the normal rate!

Keep in mind that Clark's current rent is only fifty dollars a month!

Most importantly, Clark is extremely skilled at manual labor and such.

After all, there's no one in the entire Metropolis stronger than Clark.

To be honest, although this job was far from Clark's dream of being a journalist, the salary and nature of the work made Clark extremely interested in it.

Without hesitation, Clark sat down in the chair at the booth attendant's desk and said, "Hello, I'd like to fill out an interview form."

Sitting opposite Clark was a woman who looked to be around thirty years old.

She wore black-rimmed glasses and had very voluminous curly hair.

She was on her phone, complaining to her colleagues at the office about how difficult it was to make signs this year, and how young people these days seemed less willing to take on such a job.

Despite the high salaries, very few people actually stop at the door.

Seeing that Clark had taken the initiative to ask, the woman immediately threw her phone on the table, pulled down her glasses, and asked, "You want to apply for a construction worker position?"

Clark nodded immediately, saying, "Yes, ma'am, I think this job is a perfect fit for me."

Upon hearing this, the woman immediately smiled, then took out an interview form and handed it to Clark: "Hello, my name is Cassia, and I am the recruitment manager of the Lu...L Company branch."

Clark took the interview form and said, "Hello Ms. Cassia, I'm Clark, and I just graduated from high school."

“Fill out each item carefully, and then you can go home and wait for the interview notification,” Cassia said. “Honestly, it’s so rare to see a young man as handsome and reliable as you these days.”

“Actually, I just… have a lot of strength.” Clark quickly filled out the interview form and said, “I’m done, ma’am.”

Kassia took the completed interview form and praised, "You have a lot of strength...that's definitely something young people can be proud of! As for the specific interview time, you can go home and wait for my message or continue to look at the other positions."

“Yes, ma’am.” Clark stood up and said, “I think I should go back and take another look. There are just too many people here, and I don’t want to come back again.”

"Oh, right, young man, look at me."

Cassia picked up the Polaroid camera on the table, aimed it at Clark, and pressed the shutter.

Click.

Clark's photo immediately appeared from above. Misia pasted the photo onto the interview form Clark had just filled out and said, "Now everything is foolproof. Goodbye, Clark."

Goodbye, Ms. Misia.

Clark continued walking, and the positions behind him were the same as before, mostly companies recruiting salespeople.

Occasionally, there are also job postings for technical and knowledge-based positions such as art teachers or math teachers.

However, Clark was not a suitable candidate.

Although Clark's knowledge is sufficient for him to become a professor at any university in the world, he is far too young for parents to trust such a young man to tutor their children.

As Clark walked along, his eyes suddenly lit up. The recruitment booth in front of him turned out to be a newspaper!

Planet Daily is hiring intern reporters.

[Job Responsibilities: Follow the editor-in-chief's instructions and conduct interviews]

[Job Requirements: Relevant professional experience or education; keen awareness of current events; willingness to work hard and travel; and fearlessness in the face of authority.]

Salary and Benefits: Immune

Planet Daily!

Clark's eyes lit up; this was the most well-known media outlet in the metropolis.

Clark would rather forgo a salary than work as an intern at the Daily Planet.

Unfortunately, Clark currently lacks relevant work experience and is not a journalism graduate.

Clearly, the Daily Planet wouldn't want a fresh high school graduate like Clark.

However, Clark, still with a "let's give it a try" attitude, went to the Daily Planet booth and filled out an interview form.

The staff at the booth picked up the form Clark had filled out, looked at it, and then frowned and said, "Okay, you can go back and wait for news now."

Clark immediately knew from the cold attitude and disdainful tone that this guy would definitely not give him a chance to be exempt from the exam.

However, it wasn't a big problem, as Clark hadn't held out much hope anyway.

That afternoon, Clark received a call from the HR manager of Company L.

On the phone, Ms. Misia said kindly, "Hi, Clark, I think you can come to the company for an interview tomorrow. I will send you the address later."

“Thank you so much, Ms. Misia. When is our interview?” Clark asked, eating a burrito.

Ms. Misia patted her chest and said, "Oh dear, I completely forgot to mention, see you tomorrow at ten o'clock in the morning."

“Okay, Ms. Misia, see you tomorrow.”

In the office, Ms. Misia hung up the phone and let out a long sigh of relief.

Clark was the only person who filled out an interview form today, and she had to ensure that Clark could get the job smoothly.

Therefore, when Misia called Clark, she showed her gentlest side.

After Misia scanned Clark's resume into the company's file system...

Jingle Bell!

Strange, who would call my office landline at this hour?

The office landline rang, and Ms. Misia answered the phone with a puzzled look on her face.
