65.选C 。

一家有名的外资在华投资企业,需要招聘一名公关部接待秘书。
在历经了招聘过程的过五关斩六将之后,一位取得了电子工程学士学位的漂亮女孩终于进入了冲刺阶段——与另一位同专业的同学位同样相貌出众的女孩接受考官的面世。
漂亮女孩对自己很有信心。经过面世,考官对她表示满意。机会已经在她眼前。考官当即代表公司通知漂亮女孩,可以在下周一来公司报到。问她:“你还有什么要说的吗?”漂亮女孩面对这一突如其来的决定,有些不知所措,不由对考官说:“这事儿得由我跟爸吗说说。”考官听了不由一愣,然后显得很平静地说:“好吧,那你就跟你爸妈说一声。”
第二天,漂亮女孩来到公司告诉考官说:“爸妈同意我下周一来这儿上班。”考官十分遗憾地说:“对不起,你可以到别的地方去试试,我们这里已经有合适的人选了。”漂亮女孩为此傻眼了,问:“这是为什么?”考官对她说:“我们这里需要有主见的人才。”
于是,一个很好的机会就在漂亮女孩眼皮底下悄悄地溜走了。
