The interview process was unbelievably terrible. First, after briefly going over my educational background and work experience, they started nitpicking my background, sometimes saying that my studies were irrelevant, or criticizing my work experience as unsuitable for a company like theirs (Are you a publicly listed company?). They even criticized the companies I had previously worked for. Then they started boasting about how innovative and creative their company was, repeatedly emphasizing how creative the owner was, while criticizing Taiwanese companies as having poor and flawed systems (If you’re so great, why isn’t everyone earning over a million like at TSMC?). They then asked whether I had researched what the company did beforehand. After I answered, they turned around and told me that my understanding was only superficial. The funny thing was that they never actually explained the company’s specific business; they just kept boasting that the company was constantly expanding its business and increasing revenue (Are they that short of money that they can’t do their core business well and have to desperately take on side jobs everywhere?). Looking them up online, you find that they merely operate businesses such as warehouse storage, second-hand electronics, and foreign-worker placement, yet they talked as if they were some publicly listed high-tech company. They then continued talking to themselves about how the company undergoes major changes every so often, and that the company only needs the strongest people, not the weak. The funniest part was when they finally revealed the salary offered after all that self-aggrandizing—I just laughed. Even someone working an hourly-paid part-time job would earn far more than that. The constant display of self-important language made it clear what level this company’s management was really at.
