The agent was quite polite and didn’t keep pushing me to take promotional photos like other agencies do.

I applied for a temporary actor position. Since I wasn’t familiar with this position at the company, I asked the agent who interviewed me about it, but their attitude was extremely impolite. It was as if I was supposed to know everything. They casually opened their matchmaking company’s Facebook page and read through everything on it, then asked whether I had any questions. Well, I don’t know whether I applied using the same approach I would use when applying for a job at another company, or whether this is simply an unspoken rule, but I had looked online for temporary actor job openings and already knew that your company’s reviews weren’t very good. However, I saw that you were recruiting very aggressively, so I thought I would come and see what it was like—but sure enough, haha. Taking promotional photos here also costs 5,000, the same as at an agency in Wanhua, but they aren’t as forceful as that agency, which essentially tells you to leave if you won’t take photos. Still, I feel that when someone comes for an interview and asks about the job duties, if you answer so perfunctorily that it seems the applicant is naturally expected to know everything, then I think there could inevitably be other problems when working with you in the future. Overall, I now understand that if I want to take temporary acting jobs, I probably shouldn’t look for an agency that requires payment upfront.
