Chapter 1416 The Challenge of Recruiting Talent
"Roxanna, a job application from abroad has arrived. It's on your desk."
Roxanna was still engrossed in her work even though it was late into the night. She glanced at the document that
had been placed beside her, gave a slight nod, and remained silent.
The assistant checked the time and hesitated for a moment while she observed Roxanna's diligent demeanor.
Eventually, she chose not to disturb Roxanna further and quietly exited the room.
Roxanna studied the document in her hand. It was sent by Chloe, detailing the medical base's need for new
researchers.
Chloe planned to attract domestic talent currently working abroad. It was undoubtedly a venture that would require
substantial funding.
Roxanna frowned slightly at the document. Indeed, funding was a significant hurdle.
Both domestic and international medical bases were at a crucial juncture, and they would soon need financial
support. If this were the case, the medical base could potentially face bankruptcy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRoxanna ran her fingers through her hair in frustration, leaving it in disarray.
The funding from the Quill Corporation's partnership would take some time before it would arrive, which wouldn't
alleviate their current immediate financial crisis.
Yet, if they implemented the plan even a moment later, several projects would be stalled. As a result, it could
potentially lead to delays and ultimately cause a chain disruption.
Either way, the situation was far from ideal.
This predicament left Roxanna feeling overwhelmed. If it were the medical base of the past, they wouldn't be even
the least bit concerned about a shortage of staff. Nonetheless, she also couldn't possibly compare the two since
they were starting from scratch.
"Roxanna."
The assistant, seemingly having thought of something, abruptly returned. She entered the office just in time to see
Roxanna looking troubled and decided to voice her concerns.
"What's wrong?" Roxanna inquired as she suppressed her previous frustration. It wouldn't be good to take out her
frustrations on her staff.
Alas, the assistant still noticed Roxanna's stiff expression. The worries on Roxanna's face were still evident despite
her best efforts to conceal it.
"I've been managing our medical base's financial affairs recently. Although the income and expenses can balance
and maintain the base's normal operation, if there are any complications during this period, we might not be able
to..."
The assistant's words echoed Roxanna's thoughts, but she was also at a loss for a solution.
Still, Roxanna noticed the assistant's hesitant demeanor. It was evident that the other party could barely muster the
courage to speak up.
So, she sighed softly before replying, "I will resolve this issue. Just research which top researchers are currently
abroad and compile a report for me."
The assistant gasped at Roxanna's words, realizing what Roxanna intended to do.
Recruit foreign talent.
"But Roxanna, about the funding—"
"That's enough. I will handle it!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRoxanna abruptly interrupted the assistant before she could finish her sentence.
The assistant was taken aback as this was the first time Roxanna had been so stern with her.
Roxanna quickly realized her harsh tone and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry. You should rest. I'll talk to you if I need
you."
The assistant nodded in a daze as she left the office.
Roxanna replayed the recent exchange in her mind. Her outburst probably startled the young woman.
The base was home to people of all ages, both men and women.
Yet, she remembered this particular assistant.
Although her assistant was young and a recent college graduate, she was highly competent. It was her efficiency
that led to her recruitment to the base.
It was truly vexing. Roxanna lowered her head in frustration. Who could guide her through this predicament? The
base seemed fine on the surface. In reality, it was far from its glory days.
Meanwhile, the assistant trudged back to her dormitory, her mood somber. She had always admired the medical
base, but now that it faced such a significant issue… Well, she didn't want to remain in the base any longer.
When she arrived at that train of thought, she gritted her teeth as she came to a decision. Then, she pulled out her
phone from her pocket.
