Emma Hart and another woman entered the design department together, guided by a staff member from human resources.
The HR manager brought Emma and another girl to the department, where the division manager gave them a quick look and asked, "Where did you work before?"
The girl beside Emma quickly responded, "Skyspace, where I had already been promoted to a designer."
The manager nodded in acknowledgment; Skyspace was a well-known design firm, respectable in its own right, but of course, it couldn't compare to the Sterling Group.
Sterling Group wasn't originally a design-focused company; it was only a few years ago that Damien Sterling, finding outsourcing tedious, decided to establish an in-house design department.
Surprisingly, Sterling Group's design department rapidly became a leading force in the field.
