Chapter 484 Exam
Chapter 484 Exam
Several days have passed in the blink of an eye, and today is September 18th. This morning, all members of Dawn City and the Dawn Army participated in a commemorative ceremony to ensure that people never forget this day in history.
Since Li Yunxi has been pregnant for more than two months, Yunlan has resumed her normal work routine starting yesterday, although for a shorter period of time.
Because he had worked through the night and presided over the memorial ceremony early in the morning, Li Chenglong felt a little tired. At Yun Lan's urging, he lay down on the office floor to rest for a while.
Yunlan was using her Noah 01 Crystal Computer when she saw the file Wang Jie had sent. Because the population of Shuguang City had been steadily increasing over the past six months, government agencies and schools needed more staff. Therefore, a week ago, Shuguang City had released recruitment notices through television and Crystal Network.
The recruitment process is basically the same as the civil service exam before the apocalypse, except that some positions require individuals with special abilities, and others require applicants to be members of the People's Association. A total of more than 3 job positions are offered.
In the past, during the development of Dawn City, there had never been such a large-scale recruitment exam. Instead, recruitment was conducted on the spot when a department was short of staff.
Yunlan was looking at the documents when the door was suddenly pushed open. She was about to scold the person who pushed the door open without knocking when she realized it was Li Yunhao, followed by Su Qian.
Susie immediately said, "Sister Yun, I was going to knock on the door, but Yun Hao pushed it open right away, so..."
Yunlan nodded: "It's alright, it's alright." Then she picked up Li Yunhao, who was pulling at Li Chenglong's clothes, and let him sit on her lap. She said earnestly: "Good son, you need to be more polite in the future, understand? It's very impolite to just barge in without knocking, even if it's your mom and dad inside."
Li Yunhao nodded understandingly, "Yes, I understand, Mom." Yun Qian kissed the little guy on the cheek, then asked, "Why did you come at this time? Is something the matter?"
Li Yunhao shook his head: "No, I just missed my mom and dad, so I wanted to come and see them. Mom, is Dad sleeping in?"
Yunlan stroked her son's head and said, "Let your dad get some rest. He's really exhausted." The little guy stayed there for a while, then left with Susie.
An hour later, Li Chenglong woke up. Yunlan brought him a cup of hot tea and then said, "The various departments have just sent over the recruitment exam documents. Deputy City Lord Ma Tiancheng, who is in charge of this matter, and I have both signed them. Take a look, and if you agree, then sign them."
Li Chenglong quickly glanced through the document and then signed his name on each page. This was one of the rules and regulations of Dawn City; for important matters like this, both Li Chenglong and Yun Lan had to sign it.
However, this also depends on the urgency of the matter. If it is a very urgent matter, one person can sign first, and the signature can be completed later after the matter is resolved. During the months that Li Chenglong was away, Yun Lan, Yun Qian, Shen Menghua, and Ma Tiancheng signed the documents.
After signing the document, Li Chenglong said with a smile, "The recruitment exams for various departments in Dawn City and the Dawn Army's administrative affairs department will begin tomorrow. There will be a written exam first, followed by interviews after the results are released. The whole process will last about a week. I believe that through this recruitment exam, our efficiency and ability to handle affairs will be further improved."
Yunlan affirmed, "Yes, and this also allows us to achieve our goal of innovation. In the past, during our development in Dawn City, due to various reasons, some people in certain positions were not suitable, especially some middle and lower-level people. Many of them were just being used as a substitute. In this way, we can recruit people who are truly relevant to the field and develop better."
Li Chenglong nodded: "After this large-scale recruitment exam is over, the new system in Dawn City will also be officially implemented. That is, the staff assessment system. From now on, assessments of varying scales will be conducted every quarter, every six months, and every year. The people being assessed will, of course, be our residents of Dawn City, so that everyone can participate."
He paused for a moment and continued, "Those who excel in the assessment should be rewarded, those who perform averagely should be encouraged, and those who perform poorly should be dismissed, transferred, investigated, or sentenced as appropriate. In the future, our government agencies in Shuguang City must not only be honest and upright, but also able to do practical work."
Li Chenglong said seriously, "We don't care about other places, but within this 1.2 square kilometer Shuguang District Autonomous Region, and within this 9000 square kilometer Shuguang City, we must do this. Only in this way can Shuguang City truly become a place where everyone can live happily."
In this recruitment exam, the Dawn City Lord's Office also has two openings. Pei Ji, who had been working here for a long time, has been observed by Li Chenglong for a long time, especially after joining the People's Association last year. Due to his excellent performance and outstanding abilities, he has been selected.
At Li Chenglong's suggestion, he was transferred to the Logistics Department as a section chief. Wang Jie has also been transferred to the Special Mission Support Section 1 of the Central Information Management Department as a team leader. Therefore, the two staff positions in the Dawn City Lord's office are currently vacant.
These two spots were highly sought after. Although the requirements were very strict, there were still more than 200 people competing for them, including staff from other departments and even some outstanding soldiers of the Dawn Army.
Because this position was very important and special, Li Chenglong and Yun Lan carefully reviewed all the resumes and then selected more than 80 qualified candidates.
More than 80 people who received the notification are to come to the 22nd floor of the Dawn Tower tomorrow morning to take a written test. If they pass the written test, they will then participate in an interview jointly hosted by Li Chenglong, Yun Lan, Zhao Liying, and Wang Jie, and the final selection will be made.
Yunlan checked the time; it was already 11:30 a.m. She stood up, tidied her hair, and said, "I'm going home to feed the baby first. Yunxi must be hungry. Are you going home to eat or are you going to eat here? If you're going to eat here, I'll have Susie bring the food over."
Looking at the heavy workload, Li Chenglong smiled wryly and said, "I'll have Susie bring the food over later. I need to get these urgent matters sorted out, so I won't be going back for lunch. I feel like I transferred Pei Ji and Wang Jie away too early; these few days of downtime will really keep me busy."
Yunlan covered her mouth and chuckled: "I heard that Pei Ji didn't want to leave back then and almost cried, but you still transferred him away."
As Li Chenglong wrote, he said, "If he stays by my side and is always my secretary, how can he advance? I told him that he must go to the grassroots level and truly understand the people. That way, he will have more opportunities for advancement and will make fewer mistakes in his work."
Yunlan shook her head: "I can't argue with you. You always have a reason. Okay, I'm going home." With that, she swayed her graceful figure and left.
Watching Yun Lan's departing figure, Li Chenglong smiled, shook his head, and went back to work. To be honest, although Yun Lan had only given birth a little over two months ago, her body had recovered very well, and her figure had returned to its pre-pregnancy level; she didn't look like a mother of two at all.
Yunlan once said excitedly that she used to be afraid that she would become a haggard old woman after having children, but now that she has had two, she finds that neither her complexion nor her figure has changed, and she can't see any signs of aging at all, which makes her very happy.
In the following week, recruitment exams and interviews were in full swing, and with the joint efforts of all parties, all job positions were filled by qualified candidates.
After three rounds of competition, two women, Hai Lianyi, a level 5 three-element ability user, and Wenren Yu, a level 6 dual-element ability user, emerged as the two new secretaries of the city lord's office.
Both are members of the People's Assembly, both are 30 years old, and both have previous experience working in other departments, making them very suitable for this job.
