Convenient transportation, and the HR staff were friendly.

I waited two hours for the interview, and I didn’t like the manager’s arrogant attitude.

If you’re looking for someone with a certain level of experience, you should clearly state that in the job posting

instead of rudely confronting applicants in person.....

It felt as though I had wasted your time, and it was a very unpleasant experience.

1. The company often offers group-purchase discounts from large companies. Although they are not necessarily good deals, they provide many opportunities to make purchases.

2. There are opportunities to receive free books, but only physical books are available; there is no e-book option.

3. Because the company has a large number of employees, it is very suitable for E-type people to make friends (?

4. You do not have to work specifically at your own desk, as long as others can find you.

5. The company eliminated physical telephones, so you can use your own mobile phone or the web to communicate. Although calls are still often missed, you can use wireless earphones to make calls and reduce the clutter of desk phone lines.

6. Although all of the company’s processes move very slowly, it provides access to Uber for Business, making it convenient to arrange and reserve vehicles.

1. I have high standards regarding workplace culture and expectations for a company’s corporate culture. I expected the work environment to align with the brand culture, and I had strong confidence in the company’s media positioning and a deep sense of corporate social responsibility regarding the work it does. However, after joining, I discovered that CommonWealth Magazine is a very traditional organization. It claims to practice flat management but fails to implement it. Its handling of sexual-harassment incidents, employees’ personal-conduct issues, and similar matters are things I find difficult to accept.

2. I applied for an advertising-planning position, but in addition to media operations, it also involved planning and executing events. My views on what matters in event execution differed from those of the company. They kept saying that their standards were very high, but I could not see any standards—only chaos, with no one providing leadership or aligning everyone around clear standards. All I saw was managers talking about lofty standards without actually establishing them.

3. I thought the year-end career-planning survey was excellent, but the outcome-oriented result was unexpectedly an internal, bizarre learning map. I think the key issues were that employees’ feedback was not being heard and that there were no standard SOPs....

4. The entire department is actually relatively unfriendly toward planners. It seems as if planners are not important, but merely responsible for writing proposals and providing no value. Nothing employees raise in the hope of improving things is considered important.

Many girls

Before the interview, you have to complete an aptitude and logic test as well as a questionnaire, including questions about which books you have read recently and your thoughts on them, what setbacks you have experienced in life, and your future plans.

The interview room feels like a prison cell.

The interviewing manager also speaks very bluntly and has a very arrogant attitude. You could say that this is cool, if you wanted to.

But why can't they be a little more polite during the interview? Why do they have to keep being so aggressive?

They even say things like, “I have twenty engineers under me. If I need technical skills, why would I need you?”

None, though perhaps the interviewer was fairly friendly.

What others have said is all true.

This company really likes to give you a second interview

and ask you to propose solutions to their poor performance.

Once you provide your answers, regardless of whether they are what the company wants,

they reject you across the board.

That is why those positions are always posted.

I think asking candidates to propose ideas during an interview is essentially stealing them.

This company is so large, yet it still does this kind of thing.

It is truly very disappointing.

At first glance, the benefits seem to comply with the Labor Standards Act.

During the interview, the supervisor of the audiovisual department under the Business Division

showed you the work channel of the Editorial Department in another division

and talked at length about the company’s ambitions and lofty ideals of revering Heaven and loving others.

They deceived the interviewee by passing off the job duties as something they were not.

During the second interview, HR also glossed over the important points to cover for this supervisor.

Only after joining the department did I discover that the work was entirely execution-oriented, editing short videos and adding subtitles.

After the year-end rush was over, as soon as the company’s so-called probationary period ended, they cited performance evaluations as a reason to nitpick over all kinds of minor issues and then pressured me to withdraw.

They also asked me to leave the information of the external personnel from the vendors we work with whenever I had time.

At first glance, the company’s departments seem to be expanding, but in reality, employees come and go, the company cannot retain people, and it has no intention of developing talent.

They are full of talk about benevolence, justice, morality, and ethics, but basically just want to exploit you completely.

A terrible job position—enter at your own risk.

Has the refined demeanor of a principled scholar.

Has ideals and ambitions, but seems not to know what they want.

I can't think of any.

Before the interview, you need to complete an aptitude and logic test, as well as a questionnaire covering topics such as what books you have read recently and your thoughts on them, what setbacks you have experienced in life, and your future plans.

CommonWealth Magazine is looking for candidates with experience in membership management, marketing planning, and data analysis. Because a friend recommended me, I first had a phone interview with a senior executive, after which I was scheduled for a second-round interview according to the company's process. The second interview was with HR and department colleagues (I’m not sure whether one of them was the supervisor). The interview itself was ordinary. They asked what level of position they were hiring for, but HR replied, “We’ll only know after seeing the responsibilities and compensation package following the offer.” I was somewhat taken aback. The job responsibilities covered an extremely broad range, yet it was unclear what level of candidate they were looking for.

In the end, HR said that they would notify me if there was a subsequent interview or send a rejection letter. After a week, I proactively followed up, but the HR representative who conducted the interview did not respond. I then privately contacted the supervisor from the first interview via LINE, and it was only after another week that they sent a rejection letter.

It left a somewhat poor impression. Nearly a month passed between the interview and receiving the rejection letter.

None

1. During the interview, the supervisor kept laughing. I had no idea what they were laughing about—it was completely disrespectful to the job candidate.

2. They did not proactively introduce the company or the job responsibilities.

3. They seemed to think you should already know all of this; I clearly wrote it on 104.

4. The supervisor questioned whether you actually understood what this job involved. You did not introduce anything—am I supposed to be psychic?

I strongly do not recommend this company. I have also filed a complaint with 104 about the company personnel’s problematic attitude!

1. The supervisor is polite and experienced

2. They give you a magazine for free

3. The HR staff are very friendly

1. The supervisor has no real authority; even the type of person to hire must be decided by the company president

2. The company president wanted to hire someone with extensive experience but did not make this clear at the beginning. There were multiple rounds of presentations and interviews, which wasted a great deal of time, only for them to say in the end that they wanted someone with more experience

1. Before the interview, HR emails applicants electronic forms to complete, so on the interview day you only need to take a logic test and a personality description test.

2. Convenient transportation: Exit 6 or 7 of Songjiang Nanjing Station is a five-minute walk or less from the company.

3. HR staff ranging from junior to senior are all friendly and professional.

1. I interviewed for an editor position at a platform within the CommonWealth Magazine Group. The interview was conducted by a director and an HR representative who appeared to be highly experienced.

2. During the interview, the director asked how I would describe my personality. I found this rather baffling because, when a normal person goes to an interview, they will of course talk about their positive qualities—who would tell the truth? It felt very unprofessional.

3. This is just my personal impression: Throughout the interview, I could sense the company’s dull and conservative atmosphere. The director’s questions were quite weak and failed to get to the point, leaving me feeling that we simply had nothing to say to each other.

4. The receptionist was very rude. When I arrived, they casually pointed with their hand and said, “Sit at the small round table outside first.”

Learn various buzzwords that are all talk and no action, and mentally brainwashing.

A traditional, conservative company that does not respect digital staff. It appears to be expanding and is constantly recruiting on 104, but in reality, it cannot retain employees. There is severe factionalism among managers, and those with bad tempers will berate people on social media.

None

1. There are a lot of people who bully the weak and fear the strong, and they don’t respect professionalism. Supervisors will even take the lead in bullying and ostracizing employees.

2. Their attitudes are immature, and they can’t separate public and private matters. Addressing issues objectively instead may actually anger them.

3. They think employees should already have the necessary skills. If you don’t know how to do something or make a mistake, no one will care, but they will curse you relentlessly behind your back.

4. They will set traps for you to fall into.

5. The culture of clinging to influential people is deeply entrenched.

They give you a magazine at the interview.

The position was clearly content-related, but the manager conducting the interview kept asking about sales experience. It was really strange.

Salary is paid on time

Many places to eat nearby

1. The company culture involves a lot of pointless talk. If you can tolerate it, you can stay.

2. There are an astonishing number of meetings, all of them brainwashing sessions where the boss indoctrinates employees.

3. Senior executives are extremely servile, treating the boss’s words as sacred edicts and not daring to oppose them.

4. The company cannot keep up with the times, and is somewhat slow to accept new things.

Traditional and conservative, it will never attempt anything groundbreaking.

5. Extremely high employee turnover.

6. The office environment is extremely noisy.

7. Professional expertise is not respected; everything prioritizes sales.

Conveniently located near an MRT station

The HR staff were friendly, and the office environment and atmosphere looked quite good.

The editor's written test had quite a few questions, including a workplace aptitude and logic test, reading a Chinese manuscript and answering questions (such as naming the book, recommending someone to write the preface, and analyzing the target readers and selling points), proofreading and polishing, and translating an English manuscript. It took at least three hours.

In addition, all of the manuscripts concerned business-related content, so the test was difficult overall for anyone without an interest in or experience with the field.

The building is new, and the work environment is good.

1. The interview lasted nearly two hours, including the personality test beforehand as well as interviews with the supervisor and HR, but they didn’t even provide a glass of water—in such hot weather.....

2. They assigned take-home work as part of the interview. After I submitted it, there was no word for nearly two weeks. So it turns out that even such a large company ghosts candidates?

Convenient transportation and fast elevators

The bosses are awful, but the colleagues are all easy to get along with

It currently does have resources, but how much longer can it keep going?

Stale, conservative, and self-satisfied

Innovation—the problem is that they think they are innovating

After all, there are a lot of liberal-arts people inside, and many of their ideas are beyond saving

They think they are different from everyone else, with talk of cultural missions and the like

But in reality, they are merely publishers heading toward extinction
