The company is publicly listed, right?
I received a phone invitation for an interview, but even the content of the conversation itself left me full of questions?
My usual practice is to first get a preliminary understanding of some details over the phone, and then consider whether to go for the interview.
The first thing that left me stunned was the base salary.
When I asked about the base salary range, they directly asked whether I attended a public or private university.
For graduates of private universities, they simply said the base salary was 【30,800】.
I’ve been working for a while now. Although I’ve only worked in sales for two years, I’ve also developed clients among well-known companies (do they not look at résumés at all?
They directly use public versus private universities to determine starting salaries—what kind of company is this? So incredibly traditional.
After all, sales is about business development and results. Who looks at your academic background! This company is so traditional—what exactly is wrong with it?
Sales staff have to ride motorcycles to develop business; there are no company vehicles.
They said that if you receive a project from another county or city, it will still count toward your commission, but someone else will take over the project for you.
(Isn’t this a bug? Why would someone else do unpaid work for you?)
Sales staff have to go into the office to clock in every morning, and also return to the company to enter data and so on.
I directly asked whether the sales assistants weren’t supposed to help with this. Going back and forth to the company is actually a huge waste of time.
Is a company this large really unable to set up remote computer access?
No wonder I saw so many negative reviews when I searched online!
