Bi Yesheng has dual degrees in finance and computer science. A recent graduate from a non-elite university, she has completed three internships at major tech companies, won first prize in national Grade A competitions four times, and received her university's scholarship every year for four years.
She has an excellent GPA, a strong competition record, impressive internships, and a poised, gracious manner. Yet she can't find a job.
Interviewer: The quality of students these days is getting worse and worse. If the schools hadn't begged us to come to the autumn recruitment fair, would they even get a chance to meet us?
Bi Yesheng sent out over a thousand resumes, but every one of them was tossed into the talent pool, also known as the trash can.
A bunch of garbage companies nitpicked her, while demanding a written test, an AI interview, and five rounds of interviews. They offered a daily wage of thirty yuan for a bachelor's degree, and still expected her to wax poetic about her future.
Interviewer: What are your long-term career plans for this trash-collecting job?
Bi Yesheng: What kind of future could trash collecting have?
Interviewer: What salary are you expecting?
Bi Yesheng: Meals and lodging included, ten thousand a day, 3.65 million a year. Can you offer that?
Interviewer: If you were given a target of one million, how many years do you think it would take you to collect enough trash to reach it?
Bi Yesheng: I don't want to collect trash!
Theme: May everyone receive a job offer soon.
