Workplace reviews and discussion: 何嘉仁國際文教團隊_何嘉仁實業股份有限公司

The HR staff and managers were very polite and had a good tone during the interview.

Regardless of whether I was accepted, they followed up after the interview.

The company's overall environment was also quite good.

I applied for the Japanese administrative staff position.

The salary listed on 104 was NT$30,000–35,000.

The position required more than two years of work experience.

Given the experience requirement, the compensation was already not particularly high.

However, since they invited me to interview and I was also somewhat interested in the education and tutoring industry,

I decided to give it a try.

Then, during the actual final interview,

the manager called each interviewee separately into a small room (the final interview itself was conducted with everyone together)

and discussed the specific salary with each person.

In the end, the salary they offered was only NT$28,000... orz

It did not even meet the minimum salary of NT$30,000 originally listed on 104.

Isn't that a bit too outrageous?

NT$28,000 is more or less the starting salary for a fresh university graduate,

let alone the fact that this job also required serving as an interpreter and communication bridge for more than 30 Japanese teachers nationwide at HESS International Educational Group,

as well as assisting with organizing various camps and courses, among other things.

The listed salary differed from the actual salary... I don't know whether all Taiwanese tutoring companies are like this.

In any case, I was really dumbfounded.

On top of that, after seeing so many online comments from various people about the sweatshop-like working conditions at HESS,

the interview gave me an even stronger feeling of: "Ah, so some of what people wrote online really is true."

In any case, I sincerely wish those who were hired the opportunity to make full use of their talents.

As for me, although I have mixed feelings, I am somewhat relieved that I wasn't hired.

After spending so many years building up my Japanese skills and project management experience (HESS said it was because of the latter that they invited me to interview),

if they were worth only this much,

going there would truly have been an insult to all the effort I have put in up to now.
