"This guy is pretty good. He got a senior chef certificate at the age of 24 and is now the head chef of a restaurant. He even stated the purpose of applying very clearly. He just wants to come to Qishitang to learn skills!"

"Tsk tsk, why is there a female chef? It's so rare! The resume looks pretty impressive. Not only did she work in white gum, but she also worked in red gum. She has rich experience, which is amazing!"

"This...this mid-level chef doesn't seem to have any special skills, and he doesn't have any impressive experience, so forget it!"

"Applying for an apprenticeship? You didn't even understand the recruitment notice. You will be eliminated!"

"Hey! What the hell is this? Our cafeteria is looking for chefs. What does this person mean by sending a resume to apply for a job as a programmer? It's just nonsense!"

"..."

Seventh Canteen, in the private room on the first floor.

Jiang Yu and Lu Shuwu gathered around a large pile of resumes, carefully sifting through them one by one.

Jiang Yu seemed very quiet. He was drinking tea and looking through his resume. If he saw something suitable, he would put it on the sofa. If he found something inappropriate, he would put it directly on the coffee table.

Lu Shuwu was much more excited. He kept talking about it while looking at his resume. From time to time, when he saw a good resume, he couldn't help but make a few comments.

Of course, most of these more than 100 resumes are invalid resumes and are simply made to cause trouble.

The so-called "invalid resume" naturally refers to a resume that is obviously inconsistent with the recruitment requirements.

For example, the recruitment notice published by Qishitang clearly stated that it was recruiting chefs, but there were still many people who wanted to give it a try and sent in resumes looking for "apprenticeships" or "waiters".

Among them, there are quite a few girls who want to apply for jobs as "waiters" at Seven Canteen, and most of them have attached photos of their lives to the back of their resumes.

This made Lu Shuwu very interested, and from time to time he let out a lewd "hehe" laugh:

"Boss, boss, look at it, look at it! This girl is really good. She is tall, long legs, fair and beautiful, and has a pretty figure!

I think the waiter might not be suitable, how about we recruit her and be your female secretary?"

"I think it's time to find a girlfriend and take good care of you."

Jiang Yu glanced at him and said calmly,

"When I go to visit your old man in August, I will mention this to him. I guess he really wants to be a great-grandfather."

"Hey, boss, don't bother me! I haven't had enough fun yet, and I don't want to find a girlfriend so early!"

When Lu Shuwu heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he quickly said with a smile,

"I'm just joking with you. I won't say it anymore. Can I stop saying it?"

In the next period of time, Lu Shuwu actually became more at ease. He was busy sifting through resumes and was not as startled as before.

The two of them had been busy for nearly two hours before going through all the large pile of resumes on the coffee table.

Among so many resumes, only about thirty really meet the basic requirements of the job posting.

"Hey, I finally finished reading it!"

General Lu Shu threw the last resume in his hand into the eliminated pile. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, stood up from the sofa, stretched hard, shook his head and sighed,

"Looking at this thick pile of resumes, I thought there were really so many chefs applying for the job, but I didn't expect there were so many fake ones. It's a waste of our time."

"We are only recruiting two or three chefs in total. Now after the screening, there are almost thirty people left. I still think there are too many people."

Jiang Yu also breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the cold tea on the coffee table, took a big sip, smacked his lips and said,

“There are still a few days until the deadline for registration, and I estimate that I will receive a lot of resumes. Then we will take a look to see if there are any more suitable ones.

After that, we need to carefully screen the resumes that have been screened out again. It will be enough to keep about ten people, and then we will find a time to call them over for interviews."

Lu Shuwu was stunned for a moment and asked subconsciously: "Do you need to screen again?"

"of course."

Jiang Yu turned to look at him and said,

“It’s not easy to handle when there are too many people. People come all the way here, but they still haven’t applied for the job. This only wastes their time, but it also affects their work.

There are many people here who are still on the job, and we have to ask them first how long it will take for them to take up the job after successful application. Some restaurants may not agree to let them go, and dragging them back and forth is also a hassle."

"That's true."

Lu Shuwu thought for a moment and then asked, "If we select again, what will be the standard?"

"That's what I think. Although it is normal for chefs to change jobs in the catering industry, I feel that no boss in the catering industry or any other industry is willing to hire new people every now and then. Of course I am the same."

Jiang Yu thought for a moment and then said seriously,

"So, if we screen again, we can exclude those resumes that change jobs relatively frequently.

In addition, there are also some applicants whose purpose of applying for a job as a chef is simply to improve their personal skills, which can be eliminated directly.

There's nothing wrong with wanting to learn cooking skills, but I'm not as selfless as they think, and Qishishitang is not a cooking school, so those who want to simply learn skills should not come."

When Lu Shuwu heard this, he couldn't help showing a look of embarrassment on his face: "It's not easy for us to judge this!"

"Isn't this simple?"

Jiang Yu smiled, leaned down, flipped through the selected resumes a few times, took out one and glanced at it a few times, then handed it to Lu Shuwu and said with a smile,

"Like this, 24-year-old, senior chef, graduated from the Culinary Institute of Guangling University with a bachelor's degree in cooking. He studied under the Chinese cooking master Wu Wendao, a famous Huaiyang cuisine teacher, and Kong Zhongyue, a famous Sichuan cuisine master. He is good at Huaiyang cuisine and Sichuan cuisine...

It can be seen from the resume alone that this person is very capable. How could he be willing to stay in a university cafeteria for a long time as a chef?

Therefore, he is willing to apply for the chef position at Seventh Canteen. Most likely, he just wants to come and see if he can improve his personal skills at Seventh Canteen. But regardless of whether he can learn the skills or not, it is estimated that he will not be able to stay here for a long time.

Long time.”

"..."

When Lu Shuwu heard Jiang Yunian's resume, his eyes widened. He said with disbelief,

"Hangcao! What the hell, the Culinary School of Guangling University is the best in our school, and it's better than any university I studied in!"

Huaxia's "Chinese Food Prosperity Base" is located in this college. It is also the only catering college in China that awards bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees, representing the highest level of catering teaching and scientific research in the country.

As long as students from this college don't cheat and skip classes every day during school, their prospects after graduation are quite bright and they won't have to worry about finding a job."

After a pause, he said again,

"Like the resume you just read, boss, his two mentors alone are very impressive. If he really wants to apply for a job at our Seventh Canteen, he won't be able to stay long."

"That's what I mean."

Jiang Yu laughed, shook his head and said,

"Our small temple, Qishishitang, really can't accommodate such a great man who obviously has a bright future. It's best not to let him come."

"When it comes to being a great person, no one can compare to you, boss."

Hearing Jiang Yu's self-deprecation, Lu Shuwu immediately quit. He looked at Jiang Yu with a strange look in his eyes, "Hehe" and said with a smile,

"Our Seventh Canteen has not only the boss, but also an old restaurant manager. Even you two great gods can be accommodated here. What does it matter to a mere senior chef who has just graduated a few years ago?

It’s just that our Seventh Canteen is a student canteen, not a vocational training base. For those who just want to learn skills and become gold-plated, we must be disrespectful.”

The two chatted for a while, and after roughly determining the criteria for the second round of screening, it was almost past four o'clock.

After Jiang Yu drank the tea in the cup, he washed the cup and put it back in the cupboard. Then he went up to the second floor again and started preparing dinner.

As for Lu Shuwu, of course he is not idle either. He has many more things to do than Jiang Yu.

…

A few days later, the deadline for "Jiang Da Qi Canteen's recruitment of chefs" passed. Hua Xiaoling printed out the resumes of the second batch of applicants and sent them to Qi Canteen.

This batch of resumes was larger than before. Jiang Yu, Lu Shuwu, and Lao Jia spent most of the afternoon to complete the initial screening and screened out more than thirty resumes.

One day later, the three people started the second round of screening.

Jiang Yu and Lu Shuwu had already discussed the screening criteria before, but Lao Jia made a new suggestion:

"I think we should not ignore those junior chefs and mid-level chefs who are relatively low-level. Although their cooking skills are somewhat inferior, if they are really trained, they can become the mainstay of the canteen.

Especially for some people from poor families, it is not easy for them to find jobs because of their low level. If we help them now, it is equivalent to providing help in times of need.

These days, whether it’s recruiting or doing anything, ability is secondary, and character is the key.”

His words came from his thoughts.

In Lao Jia's generation, most people who learned cooking were taught by mentors, with the "old" mentoring the "new". The most important thing was the master-apprentice relationship.

This kind of master-student relationship is completely different from the relationship between teachers and students today.

It really means "once a teacher, always a father". The deepest affection is no less than that of a biological father and son.

Just like Lu Shuwu's grandfather Lu Jinsheng, the kitchen of the restaurant he opened was full of his disciples and grandchildren, and the same was true for Lao Jia's restaurant.

Even if an apprentice leaves his master and goes out on his own, he would never dare to go against his master. Otherwise, he would be considered a "traitor" and would be despised by all the chefs in the circle.

Therefore, in Lao Jia's view, since you want to recruit chefs, if you meet a good young talent with good moral character, it is better to take care of your own apprentices. The apprentices you bring out by yourself can be used with peace of mind.

Although his concept is a bit old-fashioned, it is still a way of thinking. Therefore, neither Jiang Yu nor Lu Shuwu refuted it.

If you can really find someone with good talent and good character, there will be no problem in bringing them along, but the most important thing now is to recruit a few chefs who can be used as soon as they come in.

Because the current Seventh Canteen is really short of manpower, when school starts in September in the second half of the year and new students enroll, they will definitely be extremely busy.

They can't wait for their apprentices to grow up slowly.
