Workplace reviews and discussion: 飛捷科技股份有限公司

None

I applied for a production operator position, but had to wait 40 minutes for the interview. After looking at my résumé for less than 10 seconds, they rejected me. I asked whether I was missing some professional experience. The application form asked about soldering irons, PXX plug-in work, computer assembly, and so on; I had experience with two of the six items. They said the most important issue was that I didn’t have experience working at an electronics factory. Did they feel I wouldn’t stay in the job? Then they said they were looking for a technician. WTF? This was the first time I’d heard of someone being rejected for an operator position not because they wouldn’t work overtime, but because the company was looking for a technician. The key issue wasn’t whether I had professional technical skills, but whether I had experience at an electronics factory.

At the end of the interview, I told them that their job requirements should have said something like “Experience at an electronics factory preferred.” I was already being very polite.

If they could decide after looking at my résumé, why waste my time asking me to come in?

They wasted an hour of my interview time and my gas money.
