"The receptionist decides whether you are allowed to interview with the manager"

1. Several applicants were visible as soon as I entered (a group interview invitation).

There was no reception area or meeting room; we had to find a seat ourselves to fill out the forms.

2. While filling them out, I could hear employees flattering one another. We also had to complete verbal and cognitive tests unrelated to the job.

3. The receptionist graded your test on the spot and screened you herself. It made no sense.

4. Next, they took us to a showroom for their products, introduced them, and then conducted the interview.

5. They asked questions but did not explain the job. When I asked her to give a general introduction to the company, she dodged the question; when I asked about the policies, she knew nothing.

6. I was fortunate enough to see the production line; the equipment was outdated.

7. This is a sunset industry

1. Sunset industry

2. Outdated production equipment

3. Disrespectful toward interviewees

4. Strange tests during the interview

5. They expect you to ask questions, but when you do, they do not answer; the company’s policies clearly have problems.

6. Fortunately, I deliberately completed the test slowly and was able to learn some information from the employees’ conversation.

7. Office politics and a culture of sycophancy. I mention this because it has reached an advanced, deeply entrenched stage.

8. No bonuses at the three traditional festivals and no parking space for scooters.

9. Throughout the interview, they repeatedly asked questions beyond the scope of the position in order to push the salary down.

10. The salary they offered was basically the legal minimum hourly wage, at most with an additional allowance of around one hundred.
