None

Position applied for: Marketing Assistant

The interview lasted approximately one hour. I was asked many professional questions based on my résumé, which made me think this would be a challenging job, but the actual job duties I heard about seemed to have little connection with the questions asked.

Job description posted online:

1. Execute social media marketing

2. Produce materials related to the brand’s needs

3. Execute brand activities

4. Execute all matters related to brand management and development

Actual job duties: Greeting customers at the store, cleaning and arranging jewelry, serving tea and cutting fruit, handling administrative documents and correspondence.

I don’t understand why this company was looking for a “store clerk” but advertised the position as a “marketing assistant,” wasting people’s time by having them come for interviews.

Compensation:

・“10-hour” workdays, with no lunch break (the explanation was that you take a break on your own when there are no customers)

・Two-month probationary period, hourly wage of “NT$110”

・Salary of NT$26,000–27,000 after the probationary period

・“8 days off per month” (shift-based scheduling)

・Signing a contract and providing two guarantors

I hope there won’t be another victim. If you want to work as a store clerk and accept the conditions above, then go ahead and apply!
