You have to change into slippers for the interview to give your feet a break.

You have to climb the stairs to get upstairs to save energy and reduce carbon emissions.

Aside from the above advantages, I was extremely shocked and disgusted by this company, Din Tai Fung, from top to bottom!

The slightly overweight male HR manager was extremely arrogant. He interviewed the job seeker without having reviewed their résumé beforehand, asking the job seeker to introduce themselves while simultaneously needing to focus on reading the résumé with his head down. Then, every question he asked after looking up was about what had just been covered in the self-introduction. What kind of logically confused hidden ailment is this?

Less than ten minutes into the interview, a friend of the HR manager came to visit. He then left the job seeker sitting there, watching the two of you chat and make small talk in the distance for more than fifteen minutes. After hearing you and your friend mention at the end of the conversation that you were going to have lunch together, you came back to your seat, offered no apology, indication, or explanation, and casually announced that the interview was over and that the job seeker should wait for notification. At that point, I could see your friend waiting in the distance! Did you think the job seeker had no ears or ability to judge the situation, and did not realize that you were rushing off to a meal and had rudely abandoned them?

So, Din Tai Fung:

1. If you treat applicants for senior operations department positions this way, then your treatment of applicants for other positions must be astonishingly poor as well!

2. The job seeker traveled a long way from another county or city, taking the high-speed rail, transferring to the MRT, and then taking a taxi, spending several hours and transportation costs in exchange for a ten-minute unprofessional interview, fifteen minutes of waiting around, and then an interview that ended in an instant?

3. The interviewer mentioned that even headquarters managers and staff need to spend a certain amount of time periodically working at the frontline locations, but may I ask whether you learned humility and basic etiquette from that? Or are you simply taking out long-suppressed negative emotions on job seekers as revenge?

4. The interviewer was careless, absent-minded, and unprofessional—clearly this is Din Tai Fung’s consistent high standard!

I hope job seekers planning to interview at Din Tai Fung are lucky enough to see everyone’s unpleasant experiences first, so they do not waste their time at a company that respects money but not its employees!
