I'm not really sure; perhaps the fact that the interview wasn't very difficult could count as a strength.
I have to warn people that the overall interview experience was extremely poor.
Before the interview began, I had to fill out their company's application form.
In the spirit of mutual trust, I filled in everything I could.
Downside 1.
They made the interviewee wait outside for about half an hour (I arrived on time).
Downside 2.
The middle-aged, balding male interviewer really had no idea how to respect people, and I don't think he knew how to interview people either.
After seeing the weight I had entered, he said in surprise, "You're that heavy? Stand up and let me take a look."
Downside 3.
After seeing that I had a scooter license, he said, "I'm not discriminating, but women riding scooters, you know... um... it's dangerous! Hey, don't ride a scooter."
Isn't he being biased himself? That's discrimination, isn't it?
Downside 4.
He kept answering phone calls during the interview, wasting the interviewee's time.
Downside 5.
He was the one who invited me to the interview, yet he complained that I was a fresh graduate.
Downside 6.
For ten or twenty minutes of the interview, he kept talking about how old his son was, how much fun he had in college, and how many points he got on the Joint College Entrance Examination back then.
He was just trying to prove that "he doesn't understand what college students are thinking."
Downside 7.
When introducing his own company, the interviewer was vague and lacked professionalism.
Overall, I feel that I wasted my time and transportation costs today
just to chat with an old man about unimportant things.
It can't even really be considered gaining interview experience.
Oh, the interview I went to today was at the Taipei location.
