“Our spokesperson search has exploded online, with over a hundred thousand applicants in just three days!” Hayley said. “Henry and the HR team started in–person interviews two days ago across eighteen locations, but there are too many participants. We’re going to do an initial screening of one thousand candidates based on their online profiles”

At the morning meeting, Hayley and the core project management team took the launch of this new product very seriously. Quality control and the selection of spokespersons were top priorities.

The Innovate Group was known for its swift and efficient work style

The Innovate Group wrapped up the meeting quickly, with each department immediately assigned the latest tasks, Hayley packed up her laptop. clicked her high heels, and exited the conference room, huming towards the VIP elevator.

Behind her, Henry, an HR manager clutching a stack of papers, rushed to catch up. “Ms. Isaac, please hold on a sec”

Everyone at the company had been swamped lately, especially the folks on this project, who were working overtime until midnight almost every day. They had no choice. They needed to be ready for the Nivalis Al Exhibition by Christmas, and time was very tight.

Seeing the elevator open, Hayley, who also had an urgent matter, quickly turned her head and said, “Henry, you can hash out the initial candidate list with Mr. Hayes and his team. No need to ask me. I trust your judgment.”

“It is indeed about the preliminary selection, but please take a look at this list first.” Henry anxiously said.

Hayley had promoted Henry to fill her old role when she became product director of the Al department. Henry was extremely loyal to her.

She stopped the elevator, giving him a moment to hand over the open casting call list. Hayley quickly scanned it, lecturing her subordinate as she did.

I know some of the big shots from Vincent’s team can be a pain, but these open calls are mostly for show. We’ll just pick one of them who’s easy to work with in the end…

Hayley’s voice trailed off as her face hardened. She furrowed her brow, eyes locked on a name on the list. “Stephanie is in the list?

Henry’s expression was also complicated as he replied, “I’ve double–checked it. It’s definitely her.”

At first, he thought it was just a coincidence, but curiosity got the better of him. He looked it up, and what he found made his jaw drop.
