(CV) and few days after she received an mail from the Managing Director to come for an interview.

He started questioning, I answered everyone.Then, he called out a name, apparently it was the Operations Manager, and said to him, I am sending this lady to you. And I quote “I think her aim is to come and occupy my seat,” she concluded.
