Read the community guidelinesI was very excited before the interview because the company's product combines mobile phones with information security.
If you interview with Ching-Yuan Technology, think carefully about the interviewer's answers during the interview.
The company had been operating for 20 years as of 2022 (please check with the Department of Commerce, Ministry of Economic Affairs).
Before going to the interview, I saw that the company was located in an impressive commercial office building. When I reached the company's floor, its stainless-steel door was closed.
During the interview, I learned that the entire company has around 10 employees.
I interviewed there recently. Below are only some of the questions I asked and the female interviewer's answers.
Me: Once I join, what tasks or projects will I need to complete within the first year? What will be the most difficult part? What resources will be available?
Her: All projects; there are no particularly difficult parts. As for resources, all colleagues can be asked.
I specifically confirmed this twice, and she gave the same answer both times. Since I started interviewing, this was the first time an interviewer had answered this way.
Me: I'd like to understand why you chose to work here.
Her: For personal reasons that aren't convenient to answer — then she said, “It's close to home.”
She thought it was inappropriate for me to ask this question because I was probing into her privacy. I said I wasn't probing into her privacy; I wanted to understand what advantages or benefits the company offered that made her choose to work at Ching-Yuan when she had received an offer from another company. She also seemed puzzled. She first said it was for personal reasons; I did not press her, but she later said, “It's close to home.” Being close to home is also a reason, so why was it inconvenient to say? However, she did not seem to understand the company's distinguishing features. As for the other reasons, everyone can think about them.
Me: She introduced the company's projects and mentioned its current clients.
Her: TSMC and government agencies.
I asked whether TSMC was the only private-sector client. She replied, “Yes.” I then asked approximately how many government agencies there were, and she actually replied that it was inconvenient to provide that information.
She later sent me a rejection notice, but I found that the reply in the email had been written very perfunctorily.
