Chapter 378 - 378: Her Job Interview
Savannah was shocked and a little bit confused by the interview call. Zagreb Film? Had she ever sent her resume to this company? Why didn't she remember?
"Miss Schultz? Please tell me if the time slot does not work for you."
"Yes, that's a convenient time. Thank you." Savannah didn't give it much thought. Maybe she had sent the resume to too many companies, and she couldn't remember all their names. Anyway, it sounded like a production company, much better than garment manufacturers.
"Good. I'll send you an email to confirm our appointment and tell you directions to our office." The HR said politely.
Savannah was still in a state of excitement after hanging up the phone. It took her a long time to recover, and then she began to prepare for the interview. From the email sent by the HR, she knew that she would have an interview with the human resources director and the design director. After she searched for the company and its background on the Internet, she knew it was once a production company and then developed into a large entertainment company these years. There were a lot of sighed artists in Zagreb Film, including Abby.
After lunch, Savannah changed into a white button-down shirt and a conservative dress and went out early. She arrived at Zagreb Film ahead of time in case she might be late.
Zagreb Film's office was in a 60-story tower. It occupied 40 stories of the building from the 20th floor.
No wonder so many popular stars sighed at this company. Savannah sighed, a little excited. There must be a lot of famous designers in the design department of this company. If she could work here, she would learn many practical skills from those able people.
The elevator stopped on the thirtieth floor, where the interview was taking place. When Savannah walked out of the elevator, a young woman with curved hair greeted her warmly.
"Hello, Miss Schultz?"
"Hi, yes," Savannah didn't expect that someone would wait for her at the door.
"I'm Shaw from the personnel department. Please come with me to the interview."
Under Shaw's hearty reception, Savannah became less nervous. She was favorably impressed by the kindness of the company. Generally, she should check-in at the front desk first and then wait until it was her turn. This was the first time she was welcomed at the door and led to the interview by the HR in person.
Big companies were much nicer and more polite to people.
Shaw led her to a meeting room and opened the door for her. Two men were already sitting behind the large desk in the room.
From Shaw's introduction, Savannah knew that the left elderly gentleman was the human resources director, Thomson, and the thin man with black-framed spectacles next to him was Tony, the design director.
Savannah was applying for the design assistant position in the design department, so Tony would be her direct supervisor if she was accepted.
Shaw left first. After a polite greeting, Savannah began to introduce herself. She had gone through several interviews and was quite confident this time.
She didn't notice that there was a mini camera facing her on the wall corner.
In the next office, Dylan, wearing a Bluetooth headset, sat in front of a computer with his eyes fixed upon the real-time video on the screen. He hadn't moved his gaze from the screen since the first, second Savannah walked into the meeting room.
The camera was in HD mode, which made the images much clearer than the supervision video Garwood took from the hotel.
This was the time he was able to see her clearly after three years.
Time didn't change the little woman. She was still young, vital, and attractive. In order to present herself more professionally and conscientiously, she wore formal clothes. Her hair was tied up with a fillet headband, and the radiant smile on her face emphasized she was freshly out of school. The slightly tight shirt betrayed the outline of her form. She looked full-blown now.
She really had a good time in Italy these three years. Otherwise, she wouldn't have such a good spirit.
Dylan's eyes turned cold again.
She looked like she didn't need him at all.

After several common questions, Thomson seemed to be quite satisfied, but Tony was looking at Savannah gravely, frowning. The girl was too young. Though she studied design in one of the best schools in Milan, she hadn't finished her studies and had no good works or achievements yet. Tony wanted to interrupt Savannah several times but was suppressed by Thomson.
"Miss Schultz, we're very interested in your design study in Milan. Could you please show us?" Thomson said at the end of the interview.
"Sure," Savannah took out some papers and handed them to the two interviewers.
"Good," Thomson turned over her works and said as a conclusion, "you're very talented in design. If possible, we hope you can report for work in the design department as soon as possible."
Is this an offer? Savannah could not believe her ears. After a long silence, she knew that she was really accepted. She nodded excitedly, "okay, Director Thomson, I can come to work at any time." Then she hesitated, "but... I have something to tell you in advance."
"Go ahead."
"As a matter of fact, I come back to LA this time to participate in the domestic designer competition. During the competition, I may often take time off. What's more, I haven't graduated yet, can I come to work as an intern first?" Savannah mustered up the courage and said. Knowing that saying this may cause the interviewer to change his mind, Savannah didn't want to lie.
As expected, Tony looked annoyed, and his voice hardened, "so you might take a lot of time off from work in the future? Our company's very busy, and the design department is the busiest team. Sometimes there's even no time for our team members to eat! How can you ask for time off before you start your work?"
