1. Very willing to offer a competitive salary
2. It is a relatively well-known brand (in my personal opinion)
3. The boss is very willing to have in-depth conversations with employees and understand their backgrounds (I guess... it varies from person to person)
4. The boss is very confident in—or perhaps boastful about—the company’s own products
After an interview lasting more than two hours, my impression was: “The boss loves pontificating too much.”
Half of the time was spent talking about the process of starting the business, life experiences, and so on.
Whenever certain topics came up during the conversation, it would inevitably go off on a tangent, for at least five minutes at a time.
I can understand wanting to offer young people some advice based on personal experience.
Without even discussing whether the opinions expressed in those casual conversations were politically correct,
those conversations were really unnecessary for the interviewee and also a huge waste of time!
“It made it difficult to tell whether I had come for an interview or to be lectured.”
(Anyone interested is welcome to come challenge their temper and patience.)
I am also worried about my future “work-related emotions.”
I suspect that the frequent overtime may actually be spent listening to the boss lecture (P.S. There is no overtime pay).
Suggestion: If you hope that job applicants can learn more about your company through conversation,
why not spend some time arranging a second interview for an in-depth discussion with candidates?
That would make it possible to find suitable employees and would also be less likely to scare people away.
Also, as a fairly well-known brand,
please improve the appearance of the company’s storefront and office.
The office, which looked like a makeshift rooftop addition, genuinely startled me—I thought I had gone to the wrong place.
Also, please seriously hire an EC manager instead of having the boss try to do everything.
The boss has the boss’s own work to do; matters such as the company’s image are better left to professionals, aren’t they?
A straight man awkwardly pretending to have a girlish sensibility is truly embarrassing.
The above is my humble personal impression for job seekers considering this company, provided for reference.
