Chapter 113, Bezos Job Search

The last days of April passed quickly, and for Jeff Bezos, his studies at Princeton University were about to end.

Of course, there is still some time before we really need to join the job, but this period is when everyone starts looking for a job. As a member of the Ivy League school, Bezos is certainly not afraid of the ridiculous problem of unemployment. What he needs to worry about is what kind of company he should join.

Bezos realized as early as high school that he definitely had the ambition to do a big deal, but he had not yet thought about how to play this ambition.

Look at Bill Gates, Harvard dropped out of school after only two years, and now he is a millionaire. Look at Steve Jobs, who set up Apple at the age of nineteen, and is now selling computers. Looking back at himself, Jobs really has the urge to hang himself in the southeast branch.

Although this comparison itself is inappropriate...

Finally, just before the third-grade summer vacation was approaching, he left the school early with a recruitment information from the California area and traveled thousands of miles from New Jersey to San Jose, California.

That's why, on the early morning of the first day of May, he was able to stand in front of this five-story office building.

“Cisco-Systems.Inc”

What exactly is the charm that makes the company attract itself, and Bezos himself can't explain it. Of course, he can see that the company has not been established for a long time, because the desire for engineers in recruitment information is simply salivating, and the conditions offered are so generous that it directly exceeds 20% of the peers!

This is not because the company's capital flow is large. Bezos is very clear about the various ways of recruiting companies. If a company has a good salary, it can indeed show that it is strong, but it is 20% higher than its peers. It can only mean that it is in a period of rapid development and needs to recruit a large number of talents and turn it into productivity. In other words, this is a new startup.

Large enterprises and small companies have their own advantages and disadvantages. As a "quasi-" fresh graduate, Bezos is very clear about this. Large enterprises are well-rewarded and well-organized. As a big platform, newcomers can quickly understand what the workplace is. But in contrast, the responsibility planning of large enterprises is too detailed, almost a pit, and an employee is only responsible for the things he is responsible for, and only those things.

As for small businesses, of course, the disadvantages are obvious, such as the most obvious loose management system. But for this reason, everyone has to become a versatile person, accounting part-time clerk, clerk part-time driver, driver part-time secretary, secretary part-time...

Ahem, so the ability of small companies to cultivate employees' comprehensive qualities is often incomparable to ordinary large companies. Bezos would choose this Cisco Systems company, which is largely because of this.

Besides, this company is indeed a weird one.

First of all, what is Internet hardware?

Bezos is from a computer department, so he certainly understands what this means, so he knows more clearly that there is almost no second company of the same type in the industry except Cisco Systems!

What is the concept of the number one person in the industry?

It’s like IBM’s computer manufacturing, Ingel’s CPU manufacturing, Microsoft’s DOS system development, Apple… Alas? Does Apple sell computers or systems?

While Bezos was thinking about it, he suddenly saw an Asian girl with big breasts coming from a distance. The other party should be about thirteen years old, but unexpectedly gave people a sense of maturity, especially the light blue jeans, and the tight little butt obviously has development potential.

"Uh... have we seen it?"

Alice frowned when she heard the voice of the man opposite.

The most familiar look is the annoying look of staring at her CUP as soon as she meets her. Since she developed there, ten men she knows can have...three or four of them have this problem.

"Who has seen you?"

Faced with the stinky hooligan, Alice would certainly not be polite: "Do I know you very well? Who are you? Didn't you see that we were at least twenty years apart? Why are you talking to me like a young and beautiful girl? You are so ill-intentioned!?"

Bezos was really confused by this string of accusations. Why is this child so beautiful but he speaks so imperceptibly?

besides……

"Hey, why am I twenty years older than you?"

He smiled wryly and touched his head: "Did you forget? We have met a bookstore in Manhattan, the promotional site of "Jurassic Park".

Alice was carrying her hands behind her back, her long black hair was combed with a handsome and charming ponytail. She swept Bezos up and down and hummed: "Jeff Bezos, Princeton's origin, hurry up and touch her head hard. If you don't need to be forty, you will definitely become a big bald man! Believe it or not?"

"That's great, so you still remember me."

Bezos selectively ignored the words behind it, laughed, and reached out to pat Alice on the shoulder: "How come you are here?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached out, Alice dodged her body, glanced at her eyes again, and said, "Why can't I be here? Can't I be here? Why are you here? Is it... to plot against this company?"

Seeing that the girl really pointed her hand at the Cisco building, Bezos said happily: "Yes, I plan to go to this company for an internship. If I do well, maybe I will continue working here after graduation. What about you? Today is not a weekend. Don't you need to go to school?"

Alice snorted again and said proudly: "I have given 20,000 US dollars to the principal and the director of the discipline. As long as I pass the exam I should take, it doesn't matter if I don't attend a class~"

Looking at the girl's typical look of being beaten, Bezos smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Forget it, I don't care about you anymore. That, I'm going to go in for an interview soon. Are you traveling to San Jose with your parents? Where are they?"

Alice looked at Bezos with a weird look.

Just kidding, who is this person?

Brother-in-law - Don't be the one whom you are going to be wary of, as is the object of your sister-in-law in the world.

Well, Amazon founder, chairman and CEO.

If the "he" in front of you is really "he".

It is a good thing to make this bald uncle an employee of his Cisco, both reasonably and well. Alice knows this global e-commerce tycoon very much.

To put it more closely, he is a really talented guy. According to official history, this kid should have officially graduated in 1986 and then entered a newly established high-tech company in New York. But just two years later, he jumped to a New York banker trust company, managing a computer system worth $250 billion. At the age of 25, he became the youngest vice president of the company in history!

Just around 1995, during the first five years when he finally founded Amazon, this kid was not idle. He formed a top-level, advanced and successful pull-out fund trading management company with others, and held an important position in it - also the title of vice president.

Alice knew that even the Cisco system would be difficult to keep him, and it would be unrealistic to make him an employee for a long time.

Just like people like Gates and Jobs, they can cooperate and invest, and these are easy to discuss.

But let others work for themselves simply as employees?

It's really not an easy thing.

"Since you can stand here, it means you must be careful with yourself."

Alice nodded: "Come on, then, Cisco is a very potential company. If you do it well, you may be promoted to management."

Bezos laughed and stretched out his hand to Alice again. This time the girl did not dodge and asked the other party to pat her shoulder twice.

Just as the college boy first walked into the main entrance of Cisco building, a figure appeared behind Alice.

"You're interested in him?"

Ashley's outfit is very similar to Alice, with a blonde ponytail, a neutral T-shirt, slender jeans and beautiful shoes. She also has her hands behind her back, but she has a straw stalk in her mouth. She just walked up from the lawn across the street and looked at her friend with a wicked smile.

"When he comes out, should he be shocked in the car? If he succeeds, he will be regarded as a celebration; if he fails, he will be regarded as a comfort?"

"I knew your dog couldn't spit out ivory."

Alice glanced at her disdainfully. As a "rich second generation", Ashley certainly has the ability to ignore the existence of the school. If she wants to travel around California with her, she can set off with her.

Ashley smiled and reached out and handed Alice a straw stalk. After the latter took it and put it in her mouth, she continued: "Although I don't know much about IY, it seems that this kind of company has a low demand for the number of people, right? Even if Cisco is now in the enrollment period, is it necessary to rent such a large house?"

Although the Cisco Building in front of me is only five floors high, its area is really no less than a green field. With a computer and an office space, it is enough to install three or four hundred people. It is not the current single-digit configuration.

"It's not short of money, of course I need to invest more in advance."

Alice put her hands in her pockets: "Anyway, the lease is only one year. Believe it or not, in just one year, the scale of my company can be several times larger?"

After speaking, she glanced at her eyes: "Also, what is IY? Is it obviously IT good?"

"Haha~ You discovered this~!"

"Go to die, your pizza bird pool!"

"Oh~It hurts so much~haha~!"
