They briefly introduced the company’s systems and began asking questions related to my résumé to get to know me as an interviewee. However, the boss did not come that day, and it seemed that many matters had to be decided by the boss. I was originally interviewing for a research and development position, and the interviewer was the sales manager. He later told me to come back for an in-person discussion after the boss returned. A week later, I received a call asking whether I would be willing to work in sales. They said they thought my qualifications were very suitable for sales and that there was currently no urgent need for an R&D employee. They gave me a week to think it over and said they would contact me to check whether I was interested. I did not receive any call or notification after a week. When I contacted them proactively afterward, they told me that they had hoped I would contact them on my own because the nature of sales requires initiative. At that point, I found it very strange: you said at the time that you would contact me, but now you are saying that I should take the initiative. If I joined the company, would I be treated this way as well? Also, when they told me that there was no urgent need for an R&D employee, their R&D job posting on 104 was closed. After rejecting me, they reopened it, so I think there is a fairly high chance that they posted an R&D position but actually wanted to recruit someone for sales.
