00:24projections this unacceptable what were you thinking I apologize I was following
00:31the data provided by the finance team there may have been a mix-up with the
00:35numbers they sent over a mix-up a mix-up you're making this company look
00:40incompetent this reflects poorly on me personally do you understand that this
00:45is my department I understand completely I'll double check everything with
00:50finance and correct it right away double check you should have triple
00:54checked before submitting that's what competent people do do you even care
00:58about the quality of your work because this tells me that you don't I do care
01:03very much I'll fix everything immediately I promise your promises don't mean
01:08anything if you keep producing garbage like this this needed to go to the board
01:12today Claudia today I'll have it corrected within the hour you better and while
01:17you're at it get me a coffee almond milk two sugar is extra hot but not scalding
01:22maybe that's something you can handle without messing up we'll see right away
01:30oh who is that are you here for the 10 o'clock interview for the marketing
01:37manager position yes that's correct I'm Sophia you must be joking this is for a
01:42senior position are you sure you're in the right place I'm certain I'm here to
01:47interview for a marketing manager look I'll be honest with you okay are you
01:52too poor for this job and are you way too experienced because this position
01:56requires someone with significant resources and connections having money
02:00shouldn't determine qualifications I have over 10 years of experience in this
02:05industry that's what should matter experience in fashion specifically
02:09fashion marketing because rich people know fashion better it's in their blood
02:13do you even know what's trendy nowadays what's happening in Milan or Paris
02:17fashion trends come and go yes but understanding what makes a brand
02:21successful what creates lasting appeal that's timeless that's what I bring
02:27timeless we're not selling vintage clothing here we need someone who lives and
02:32breathes current trends someone who understands the luxury market from the
02:35inside I prefer rich ladies for this position women who actually shop at the
02:40stores we're targeting they have better knowledge they're more pleasant to have
02:44around and they understand the clientele because they are the clientele my
02:48experience includes leading successful campaigns for top brands luxury brands I
02:54understand what resonates with consumers regardless of their age or
02:58income level it's about psychology positioning storytelling that might have been
03:03true before but the industry is different now everything moves at
03:07lightning speed fast-paced dynamic we need candidates in sync with the latest
03:11fads not someone talking about psychology I assure you my ideas are anything but
03:17outdated I've adapted to every shift in the market over my career digital
03:22transformation social commerce influencer marketing I know how to stay
03:26relevant knowing about it and living it are two different things we need
03:31someone who understands rich people's minds someone who can connect with our
03:34target demographic on social media authentically and you do not fit that
03:39profile I understand social media's importance perfectly I've successfully
03:44managed multiple digital campaigns with impressive engagement rates and
03:48conversion metrics age doesn't hinder creativity or innovation in fact
03:53experience enhances it okay look you seem nice enough but but you're not
03:58getting it our brand is about being fresh and cutting-edge for real people with
04:03money lots of money and that requires a certain perspective a certain lifestyle I
04:09won't leave without this job my capabilities and contributions are
04:13extremely valuable more valuable than you're giving me credit for and I can
04:18prove that if you'd give me the chance look persistence is admirable it really is but
04:22it is not enough we need someone who fits the brand's image someone who walks into a
04:28room and people immediately think yes she represents luxury and that person is
04:33not you I'm sorry but I just have to be honest what I bring is wisdom insight and a
04:41perspective that only comes from years of dedication and hard work in this exact
04:46field that's more valuable than superficial image results matter not
04:52appearances wisdom and insight that sounds like something from a self-help book we
04:58need real tangible results campaign metrics sales numbers not inspirational
05:03speeches about hard work I can deliver those results better results than you'd
05:07expect just give me the chance to prove it okay one campaign one project in our
05:14line of work image and money is everything first impressions matter you don't fit the
05:20image we're cultivating I'm sorry but that is the reality of this business let
05:25my work speak for itself okay let me show you what I can do give me the
05:31opportunity to exceed your expectations look I've already made my decision this
05:37conversation is just going in circles and I have other interviews to get to
05:41today you're making a mistake a significant one I don't think so now if you'll excuse me I'm not leaving
05:48until we discuss this properly
05:50you haven't even looked at my portfolio this conversation is over Claudia get in
05:55here now what's going on this woman refuses to leave she thinks she can bully her way
06:04into a position just by being stubborn call the police and have her escorted out I'm
06:09sorry I can't do that excuse me why not I'm giving you a direct order Claudia because I
06:16know who she is what are you talking about she's just some poor lady who walked in off
06:21the street thinking she can waltz and take over a senior position it's good to see you
06:25again Miss Daniels you two know each other how is that possible we do and she's not just any
06:32candidate this is Sophia Daniels the founder and CEO of this company the CEO is this some kind of
06:40a sick joke CEO does an interview for positions that doesn't make any sense it's no joke Logan
06:46Sophia is the reason this company exists she built it up from the ground up 15 years ago started in
06:53a
06:53small apartment with nothing but a good idea why didn't you say anything earlier why didn't you
06:57identify yourself when you came in because I wanted to see how my employees treat potential candidates
07:03regardless of their background or appearance how they treat people they think are beneath them and
07:09whoo you failed spectacularly in every possible way I did it I didn't know I thought you judge me
07:18based on my appearance my clothes you never even looked at my resume or portfolio you assumed I was
07:26poor and inexperienced and therefore worthless that is unacceptable I can change okay please please
07:33please just give me another chance I didn't understand what was happening another chance to do what
07:39continue discriminating against people based on how much money they have continue treating people
07:45like Claudia as if they're beneath you that's not what I this company needs leaders who are fair
07:52competent and respectful leaders who judge people on merit not superficial criteria you've proven to
08:01be none of those things and let me be very clear about something this company is not about branding only
08:08to
08:08wealthy people we believe fashion should be accessible aspirational but achievable you're doing it all wrong
08:17you have completely missed our mission statement I had no idea I was trying to do what I thought was
08:25the best for the
08:25company and for the brand what's best for the company turning away qualified candidates because they don't look
08:32wealthy enough that's what you think is best I thought the brand needed this company was built on innovation and
08:39respect respect respect for everyone regardless of background you demonstrated neither today you dismissed my
08:49experience insulted me repeatedly and showed blatant disregard for our core values I promise I can be better I
08:58promise I'll change I'll take training anything just give me the chance to prove it this isn't just about today
09:04Logan there have been complaints from other employees as well multiple complaints this represents a pattern of
09:13behavior not an isolated incident complaints from who I've always done my job to the best of my ability from
09:21people like Claudia from interns who are too afraid to speak up from candidates who called our HR department after
09:29interviews with you is your best belittling people discriminating against candidates creating hostile work
09:38environments because that's what I've seen and heard about those complaints are exaggerated people are so
09:46sensitive these days so sensitive is that really what you think that the problem is everyone else and not you
09:54I'm just
09:55saying that sometimes people misunderstand there is no misunderstanding when you call someone's work
10:01garbage when you treat them like servants when you judge candidates based on their clothing instead of their
10:08qualifications please I will do better I swear but I really need this job this isn't about what you
10:14need it's about maintaining the integrity and values of this company your actions prove you are not the right fit
10:23for
10:23this role and you never were how you treat other people isn't okay the way you spoke to Claudia this
