Workplace reviews and discussion: 樂購蝦皮有限公司

The entire video interview had a tense atmosphere, and I couldn’t sense any particularly noteworthy advantages. If I had to mention one, it might be that working from home during the pandemic was relatively relaxing.

Interview situation:

There were three interviewers. I assumed one was a manager, probably born in the 1970s, and the other two were likely colleagues, probably born in the 1970s or 1980s. At the beginning of the interview, there were two colleagues: one asked theoretical and brainstorming-related questions, while the other maintained a serious expression throughout. The sense of pressure was quite strong, and this person did not ask many questions. The third person, who later joined the meeting, was probably a manager. They repeated some of the same questions asked earlier and later had a brief conversation with me in English. I was not really able to answer fluently. They subsequently asked about my expected compensation and the reason I had left my previous job. After I gave my expected compensation, the interviewer smiled. They may have felt that there was a gap between my skills and abilities and their assessment. In any case, since I was still employed, not being hired was not a major issue for me. In answering the questions, I simply responded based on my own practical experience.

Overall interview impressions:

1. The company requires a certain level of spoken-language communication and listening ability.

2. For this position, theoretical knowledge may be valued more highly than practical experience. However, the required level of practical skills may also be quite high.

3. The company seems to have the feel of a Singaporean company with a Taiwanese core—essentially, it expects strong technical ability but offers compensation at a fresh graduate’s level.

Thoughts:

Since I did not join the company, I am only sharing my interview experience. I feel that Shopee may be more suitable for fresh graduates to join and develop their skills. As for whether the internal environment is good, only the employees there would know, so I will not comment further.
