Workplace reviews and discussion: 華美航運股份有限公司

Was the interviewer gentle in the way they spoke?

I went for an interview previously.

At first, they explained some background about the company and then asked me to answer some questions similar to brainteasers.

Finally, they asked about my salary expectations.

After hearing them, the interviewer said that my salary expectations were too high and hoped that I could think again about what my bottom line was.

After I answered again, they said: “I believe that, given your years of experience, you will keep running into obstacles regarding compensation during interviews.”

I was quite taken aback by that. Although years of experience are indeed important,

Honestly, other companies are willing to offer the salary I asked for (including other large companies).

If you want to join, it would be best to be prepared for the company to be rather stingy when it comes to compensation.

Although they were speaking frankly, honestly, discussing compensation this way was not very comfortable.
