Chapter 119 Interview
“Next.” Locke sat on the sofa in the living room, watching these second-class wizard apprentices leave or walk into the house with indifference.
He had the information they handed over.
He was somewhat dissatisfied with most people’s resumes.
Although the main purpose of recruiting this second-class wizard apprentice was to meet the standard requirements of the personal pharmacy’s review process, if he was hired, he should at least be able to do some work.
But among the people who came this time, most of them were second-class wizard apprentices who wanted to learn and had never even been exposed to potions.
Locke rubbed his brow. “Maybe I spread the news too quickly.”
Locke looked at the dozen or so resumes he had in his hand. “There are still some second-class wizard apprentices who have been exposed to potions and have some relevant experience.”
“Take a look, maybe there’s something useful.”
Locke remembered what Witch Sophia said, that if he had many senior and junior brothers and sisters, it would be easy to find a second-class wizard apprentice assistant who met his requirements.
The official wizard of Lilith’s hut has a huge network of relationships around him: his friends, his students, his students’ students…
Within this network of relationships, second-level wizard apprentices will find it easier to find jobs that are more cost-effective.
First-class wizard apprentices will also find it easier to find assistants who meet their requirements.
It’s a pity that Witch Sophia is a newly promoted official wizard and has not yet established such a deep-rooted network of relationships through years of accumulation, so she can’t provide any help to herself in this regard.
As soon as the second-class wizard apprentices left the house, they were surrounded by people waiting outside and asked about their interview experience and interview results.
A second-class wizard apprentice who had just walked out of the house shook his head with a bitter face.
“I thought the newly promoted first-class wizard apprentice would be easy to talk to, but as soon as I walked in, Senior Augustine asked me several professional questions, and I couldn’t answer any of them. It seems that I have no chance of getting through.”
“I’m really short of money lately. I don’t even have the magic stones to buy meditation learning materials. I heard that the Blood Roar Colosseum is hiring a breeder assistant, so I’m going there to try for an interview.”
Most of the second-class wizard apprentices who had surrounded him to ask about his interview experience immediately shook their heads when they heard this.
“Forget it. I heard another assistant keeper died at the Bloody Roar Colosseum last month, mauled to death by a mad manticore. It’s true that jobs there are easier to find, but that’s because so many people have died. The cost-effectiveness is too low.”
“Yeah, I can’t throw my life away there just to earn a few magic stones. There are a lot of mixed-blooded magical creatures with mixed bloodlines over there in the Blood Roar Colosseum. Their personalities are unstable, and some are downright psychotic. You never know what action will anger them.”
Among these second-class wizard apprentices, there was one who was studying the sub-category of animal taming magic. After hearing this, he had a different opinion.
“It’s not as exaggerated as you say. I’m just a student in the animal taming sub-field at the academy. You’re exaggerating. It’s a little dangerous, but it’s not life-threatening.”
“It’s just that some people don’t have the relevant professional skills. During the interview, they over-package themselves, making my seniors mistakenly believe that they really understand this area, which leads to so many accidents.”
Someone grumbled, “Every interview we attend, we don’t try to package ourselves. I’ve never seen such a high accidental death rate in other positions.”
A wizard apprentice shouted, “Stop chatting, hurry up, Senior Augustine is calling the next one in.”
“Everyone, don’t push, line up!”
House, inside the living room.
Locke sat on the sofa, looking at the female wizard apprentice standing in front of him, head down, shoulders hunched, and a little nervous. She was short, plump, and about the size of a winter melon, with freckles all over her face. He raised his eyebrows in surprise. “Huh?”
“You’ve worked as a Potions Assistant to a first-class wizard apprentice?”
Terri Calvin whispered nervously, “Yes… yes, no… no, although it says so on my resume, I’m actually just an assistant in the pharmacy.”
“I’m hardly an assistant.”
“At that time, that pharmacy had recruited a dozen second-class wizard apprentices, all of whom were just helpers. That was Senior Angron’s pharmacy, and his assistant was someone else, also a student of Lord Harlan Vera.”
When Terri Calvin mentioned Angron’s name, fear and trepidation flashed across her face, along with a fleeting hint of resistance.
Locke keenly caught her facial expression and frowned slightly.
Because he had heard the name Harlan Vera many times. He was an official wizard with more experience in Lilith’s Hut.
He even had the opportunity to be one of seven senior advisors.
But he refused, because he did not want to give up the grassroots job opportunity of directly guiding students. Apart from doing research, his biggest hobby is probably teaching and educating.
But Harlan Vera had so many students under him that there was no need for his most important student, Angron, to recruit so many second-class wizard apprentices for his personal pharmacy.
After all, these second-class wizard apprentices also need to be paid. Even if the salary of a single person is not much for a first-class wizard apprentice, the salary of more than a dozen people added together is also a considerable expense.
Locke thought of something and asked, “Why did you leave? Of the helpers you hired at the time, how many were students of Lord Harlan Vera, and how many were recruited from outside?”
Terri Calvin was extremely nervous and said, “Almost none of them are students of Lord Harlan Vera. I was injured in an experimental accident…”
“Because I violated the rules, I was forced to resign… But Senior Augustine, I have mastered the mana centrifugal extraction method and three types of magic flames: wood elemental magic flame, fire elemental magic flame, and wind elemental magic flame.”
“I am also very proficient in the basic knowledge and operations of potions. Therefore, I am very useful. Please give me a chance to work, even if it means reducing my salary.”
Terri Calvin looked pitiful, tears welling up in her eyes. “I really love Potions.”
“I want to continue on this path…”
Obviously, because she was fired from Angron Pharmacy before, she has encountered many obstacles on this road and her future is bumpy.
Her situation was insignificant to Locke, a first-class wizard apprentice and potion master’s assistant. At most, he could open his own pharmacy. But for a second-class wizard apprentice, her tainted resume would undoubtedly prevent her from finding a similar job in Lilith’s hut in a short period of time.
Locke also immediately understood why Angron repeatedly violated the rules in conducting wizard apprentice experiments, even harming several young wizards, but nothing happened.
This in itself seems strange.
Lilith Lodge is so strict in this regard, yet Angron is still able to stir up trouble.
