I applied for the position of lighting assistant. As soon as I arrived, they had me test my driving skills, but after I finished driving, there was no follow-up, simply because they said I scored only 60 points for driving. But isn’t the point of an interview to have a conversation? Even if my driving really wasn’t very good, the boss, as the interviewer, should still have said something and explained the details of the position. Besides, after the test ended, I went inside and saw the boss discussing something with other people. It seemed that another meeting had already been scheduled, and they simply didn’t care whether there would be a follow-up interview. What a master of time management.
All I can say is that the negative reviews on Tianyancha really weren’t unfounded. That boss, Mr. Wei XX, doesn’t value interviewees at all, as if other people’s time doesn’t count as time, and as if it costs nothing for someone to make a special trip by car to Nangang.
Not to mention that the company’s standards for the driving test were as mysterious as ever—essentially a subjective judgment based on sampling bias. Although my driving skills are indeed not top-notch and still have room for improvement, it’s not as if I’m incapable of moving forward or would cause someone’s death. I was driving a type of vehicle I had never driven before—probably a nine-seater—on unfamiliar roads I had never traveled before (are only Taipei’s roads considered roads?), while also having to split my attention to chat with the person accompanying me on the test. How ordinary is this supposed to be? Is even the slightest nervousness and caution not allowed? Moreover, they didn’t explain beforehand where exactly I was supposed to drive. I could only wait for instructions one intersection at a time, and sometimes the person accompanying me would even forget to give them. So does asking in advance because of this mean I’m bad at driving? Afterward, the person accompanying me kindly told me that they were worried I might get into a car accident in the future. But could it be that they’re simply overly afraid of dying, believing that if the distance is relatively short, I’m bound to crash into something?
In the end, I can only wish the owner and employees of this company well. Since they are so confident in their own driving skills, I hope they can remain just as safe whenever they go out on assignments in the future.
