A tiny cup of water
The HR department contacted me to arrange this interview; “I did not apply for this position myself.” Previously, they asked interviewees to fill out an electronic personnel information form, print it out themselves, and bring it along. After arriving, I took a mock TOEIC listening and reading test lasting 45 minutes. There were no problems with any of that.
Next came the interview with the supervisor. It was obvious that the supervisor did not approve of the interviewee’s previous work experience. At one point, the supervisor said they could not understand it; after the interviewee explained it in more detail, the supervisor still acted dismissively and refused to acknowledge the value of the previous work experience, showing absolutely no respect for the interviewee. (Especially since the interviewee did not even proactively apply for a position at your company—aaaaaa.) They may only recognize degrees from National Taiwan University, National Tsing Hua University, and National Chiao Tung University. The interviewee explained that they had left their previous job because the position required unlimited overtime, and the supervisor only said that the overall environment was bad?! You can imagine what this company is like...
The supervisor did not ask HR to conduct another interview afterward. Interestingly, the interview notice sent by HR said:
Check-in → Test → Supervisor interview → HR interview (estimated 2–3 hours)
The actual interview lasted “less than half an hour”.... Luckily, the 45-minute test beforehand took up some time...
If you are traveling to Hsinchu Science Park from another county or city, it is really inconvenient unless you drive yourself. I feel like it was a waste of time.
See if you all want to go experience it for yourselves!
