It feels like the company is looking for talent by taking a “scattershot” approach.
The interviewer was unclear about the content of my résumé. After glancing at it, she directly told me that my previous work was different from what they were recruiting for. I had previously worked in social media marketing and e-commerce, so I agreed to the interview only after confirming that the job description on 104 matched. After I explained my previous work experience, the interviewer then said it was relevant. This gave me the impression that the interviewer had only learned about the candidate’s background before the interview, did not ask questions or try to understand it at the time, and directly rejected me—only to have me prove her wrong afterward ^_^. The job responsibilities for the position the company was recruiting for were very unclear, and the company’s future direction was also described vaguely.
Moreover, there was a major discrepancy between the job description posted by the company on 104 and what was actually discussed during the interview. It was barely related to e-commerce at all. Overall, the nature of the work was more sales-oriented, yet they advertised a position as an e-commerce social media specialist. I don’t know whether they understand what this position involves or whether this is a case of misrepresenting the role.
Also, because this is a small company, there would be a lot of miscellaneous tasks unrelated to the position. I asked the interviewer whether the workload for these miscellaneous tasks was greater than that of the original responsibilities, but her answer was unclear. Personally, I suspect there is a very high chance the role is essentially general labor. For everyone’s reference.
