My Life in Seoul

Chapter One : I Got A Job!

Note : Thought

Did anyone ever think that find job actually same like find soulmate?
No one??
Well at least I'm thinking like that.
It's my umpteenth time job interview.
I'm not nervous.
Not because I think I'm smart after pass some question, but it's more like routine for me.
It's similar like people who need brush their teeth everyday. You don't have to do it, but you should, otherwise other people will left you cause the stinky smell from your mouth. It's sillly actually, because I think life is too beautiful just to think something not really important like that.

Oh btw, my name is Kim Taeyeon.

" I heard you reject the offer from company B, why? It's one of great company in town. " the man suddenly ask me as he read my profile from paper in his hand.
I'm thinking for a while after I heard the question. Trying to find good answer which not look so arrogant or conceited.

" It's principle sir. After know more about the company, I realize our vision is different. So I decide to back off. " I answer it calmly as I smile to him. He look at me for while before back to the paper in his hands.

" Okay, at your profile, you said you want job as Z, but I saw you don't have experience in that field, are you sure you can handle the job good? " ask him again.

" I saw this job vacancy from internet sir, and I never been so sure in my life. So even though I don't have experience in that field I pretty sure I can do the good job, if you gave me the chance of course. " I said it confidently with smile in my lips.

The man just nods his head, he looks pretty impress with my answer. He back to read my profile and for second the room only fill by the sound of AC from corner of the room.
I start drumming my finger on my knee. Little bit feel tired and bored. I just want go home, take shower, eat and then sleep before back hunting job at internet. Like what I always do everyday.

" Alright, after considering about everything, I think you fit with job you apply. So congratulation, you accepted. "
My finger suddenly freeze as I just stare at the man with mouth hang open. " Excuse me..? " I still can't believe with what I just heard, maybe my ears trick me?

" You accepted. " the man smile at me before continue, " But because you still don't have experience in that field, so company will give you time to get training about the job. And after 12 month you will be able to place at the position you want. "

I slowly nods, still confuse and can't believe I just get the job. 

Is not joke.. right?

The man start gather whole paper in the table and prepare to leave.
" By the way you have 3 days for prepare before leave. " 

I nods my head enthusiastic, before something register in my head.

Wait... leave..?

" Yeah, I told you, you will get the training from company right? "
I nods my head slowly. Very slowly. Because somehow I know the next sentence which come from his mouth will change my life forever.
" The training place it's at our headquarters at Seoul. So I think 3 days preparation is enough right? "
" ...... "

My name is Kim Taeyeon. This is my... hundredth time of job interview. And for first time, I'm panic.

" Seee, mother instict never get wrong. I knew you will get the job this time. " my mom said it with happy face as she land kiss on my cheeks before quickly back to kitchen to continue prepare dinner for us.
