Chapter 1343: Chapter 642: Creating the Brightest Star in the Sky

Graduates from Zhengyang University were enthusiastic about the recruitment at Yixing Company, with a large number of students from key computer science majors applying, mainly due to the sheer difficulty of finding job opportunities.

Yixing Company was truly renowned, especially within Zhengyang itself, being the most high-end technology enterprise around. To work at Yixing was like working with Academician Zhao himself, which was a matter of great prestige when mentioned.

When many graduates applied, the responsible Luo Yonglin developed a headache, for the number of applicants was so vast that he simply couldn’t decide whom to eliminate.

This was a major event for Zhengyang University and had to be handled with utmost seriousness.

Luo Yonglin was not an ordinary teacher; he was the director in charge of graduate employment and knew full well that a vital indicator for the university’s development was the employment rate and quality of its graduates.

The employment rate at Zhengyang University wasn’t low, but the quality of employment was quite dismal.

Most graduates could only find jobs in private enterprises. Even those with excellent grades struggled to find good positions after graduation, primarily due to the lack of prestige associated with the diploma from Zhengyang University.

Therefore, ambitious students often opted for the civil service examination or dedicated themselves to preparing for postgraduate studies.

Zhengyang University also had difficulty retaining its top students since they would usually consider better universities for their postgraduate studies rather than continuing at their alma mater.

These were common problems for ordinary universities.

If Zhengyang University could maintain a partnership with Yixing Company, allowing some graduates to work there, the situation would be entirely different.

At that point, the degree wouldn’t matter much.

Even if they established a specialized diploma program where graduates had a high chance of entering Yixing, it would surely become an extremely popular major, attracting high-scoring College Entrance Examination students. Improved student admission would also greatly benefit the school.

Luo Yonglin knew he had to be extremely careful this time. Looking at the list of applying students, he simply recommended all eligible candidates regardless of their education, major, or grades.

How to select the right candidates would be a decision for Yixing Company.

In the end, over six hundred students applied, fighting for one job spot among every six applicants. Relative to the positions at Yixing, their chances of entry were still not small.

Yixing Unlimited Power Company received news from Zhengyang University, and they were also recruiting openly to the public.

Zhengyang University had a hundred spots, and there were another hundred spots available elsewhere.

The company planned to hire two hundred employees for the first batch. The recruitment conditions were straightforward, requiring at least a junior college degree with recent graduates given priority and those with strong mathematics skills receiving special consideration.

This job did require some mathematical ability, but the demands weren’t very high. A high school level of mathematics was sufficient, and further knowledge could be expanded during work.

In the recruitment process, Yixing Unlimited Power Company had two meetings and decided to invite all applicants to a mathematics test. They would admit four hundred candidates into the second round of interviews, and those who passed the interview would enter the company.

The math test was set by the company internally. Its content was directly related to the job, including high school basic mathematics, some calculus, as well as probability and statistics.

With all these topics combined, most applicants were sure to score well, but the benchmark for success wasn’t set very high – it was enough to be ranked near the top.

Zhao Yi didn’t need to get involved in the subsequent process. In collaboration with the personnel in charge at Zhengyang University, they conducted a large-scale examination in the university’s teaching buildings. Once the results were assessed and a list was compiled, they swiftly moved on to the interviewing stage.

Zhao Yi did not continue to manage the recruitment, but that didn’t mean he could relax. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

The news that Zhengyang University had secured a hundred spots at Yixing Unlimited Power Company spread online.

Many people became aware of it.

Then, other universities began to approach, starting with Zhengyang University of Science and Technology, followed by two specialized colleges, including Jiangcheng University. Later, even Yanhua University called.

This was becoming somewhat troublesome.

Zhao Yi promptly deferred the issue to the education authorities, advising them to speak with the Department of Education, while Yixing provided only educational recommendations.

The fact that many schools were reaching out was, in reality, good news for Yixing Company because the demand for talent skilled in Spatial Connection Technology would surely grow in the future, and relying solely on Zhengyang University wouldn’t suffice.

A monopolization by a single institution was not conducive to the development of the education industry. However, allowing all schools to offer relevant majors would result in many graduates being unable to find jobs.

The market demand dictated the number of professionals needed; the talent pool should be only slightly larger than the market requires, rather than excessively so.

Soon.

The two hundred recruited by Yixing Unlimited Power Company, including the hundred graduates from Zhengyang University, progressed into the training phase.

Employees responsible for tuning the photonic energy converters at the company were mostly involved in the training. The related work was almost at a standstill.

However, "sharpening the axe will not hinder the cutting of wood." After two to three weeks of training, scores of people would be ready to engage in the work, which would undoubtedly speed up production considerably.

Since the Unlimited Power Automobiles had not yet been officially released and there was no rush for large-scale rapid manufacturing, it no longer required too much attention, as long as the problems could be resolved.
