I didn’t even get through the door, so I don’t know.
My résumé was publicly posted on a job-search website. Even though it clearly stated that I’m currently employed, they still called to harass me during working hours.
As if the harassment weren’t enough, they dared to call even though they couldn’t understand the professional qualifications listed on my résumé.
I couldn’t tell whether the person calling was HR or a supervisor. What’s outrageous is that the caller didn’t even understand what their own company’s job involved.
They stammered on for ages, and in the end could only add, “Anyway, it’s just the kind of stuff engineers do.”
It’s hilarious— in Taiwan, apparently any position can be given the title “engineer.”
In the end, I only asked, “Is it related to software development?”
They replied, “Uh… yes.”
I checked the interview invitation on the job-search website: it was for an assistant position installing surveillance equipment, and they sent the invitation more than once.
Wasting both our time is one thing, but my software engineering expertise and résumé were clearly right there, and they still looked down on me.
