I received a notification not long after submitting my résumé, I guess?

The interviewer asked whether I was currently employed or unemployed. I answered that I had a part-time job, but was harshly told that meant I was unemployed. I have no idea what they were trying to criticize me for.

The interviewer at the beginning was very nice. It was mostly just a conversation.

The interviewer later on smiled while making cutting remarks. I hadn’t researched the name and mission of their foundation well enough (even if you won’t ultimately be working under the foundation, you still need to know it very clearly), and she mocked me with a smile, apparently thinking that I had made no preparations as an interviewee. But the point is that the interviewer at the beginning said the second interview would just be a casual chat; they never said they would ask such detailed questions. Moreover, if they were already making so many cutting remarks during the interview, I can only imagine what it would be like after joining.

At the beginning, I was asked to introduce myself, but I was interrupted with questions after I had only spoken the first part. She also complained that there wasn’t much information in my résumé and could only keep asking questions to get information (several times). It was really contradictory: the interviewer at the beginning had not communicated this, and then, several days later during the second interview, the other interviewer complained about it incessantly. It seemed as though the two of them had never communicated properly.

There are quite a lot of places to eat near the company; there are no other advantages.

The interview was a one-on-one interview directly with the deputy CEO.

They believed that people should handle the promotional images and text for their own activities themselves, and said with a sharp look, “If you don’t know how, you should go learn.” Since my TOEIC score was only in the 500s, I honestly said that there might be some obstacles in handling business in English. The deputy CEO said that everyone in the company is very ambitious and spends time after work studying and improving their deficiencies on their own.

Regarding overtime, they initially said that working hours followed the company’s prescribed start and end times. When I asked about overtime pay, they directly replied that if one’s assigned work was not yet finished, one had to handle and complete it oneself, etc. (I later found out that this is a company where overtime is the norm, including working on holidays.)
