The company has been operating for decades. Its factory and office are in different locations, and it is considered a well-known, long-established brand.
1. No one was at the reception desk. I had to walk in and call out before someone poked their head out. Since interviews are scheduled in advance, matters at the reception desk should also be properly handed over; it should not have been left unattended. (Later, I saw the receptionist return from running an errand outside, looking very troubled.)
2. The résumé was filled out at a small table in a dimly lit hallway outside. Many people, including those from other companies on the same floor, were coming and going, which felt somewhat disrespectful.
3. The atmosphere in the office felt unpleasant, with an indescribably strange air about it.
4. They said they would respond within a few days, but there was still no response.
For clarification, being ghosted is a common problem among many companies nowadays. However, once a job seeker has gone to the company for an interview, regardless of the outcome, the company should give them a response. This is a basic courtesy that is easily overlooked.
