[Marketing Interview]

The written test lasted 30 minutes and consisted of a double-sided sheet including English-to-Chinese and Chinese-to-English translation. The interviewer was a female manager from the marketing department. This position involves sourcing internationally and requires analyzing advertising placements, with website article writing and similar content as secondary duties.

During the conversation, the female manager used negative wording in her responses and frequently interrupted, which left a very poor impression. Based on past experience, this type of personality tends to be domineering, raising concerns about future collaboration. For example, when asked about the possible reasons why the person who previously held the position had left, she smiled and said, “Do you think they would tell me the truth?” She then said that the former employee had become less and less motivated compared with other colleagues the longer they stayed. (Employers like to ask about reasons for leaving, but job applicants can of course ask in return.)

In addition, I could not sense the qualities of “respect and listening” during the conversation, and she appeared to have a negative mindset.

Those who are proficient in English and have an international sourcing background would be a good fit for this position, but attention should be paid to the manager’s personality issues. Judging from the reasons given by former employees for leaving, this manager also does not appear to be good at motivating employees and tends to maintain a negative mindset.
