Long working hours; the salary discussed during the interview did not match the job websites. Although I clearly applied for a full-time position, I was required to start as a part-time worker at the basic hourly wage? This is essentially a scam tactic and a waste of everyone's time.

The only advantage: The interview started on time.

During the interview, they asked personal questions: Are you single? How long have you been together? Do you plan to get married? Why did you move north for work? These questions have absolutely nothing to do with the job, okay?? Were they looking for gossip or what??

Then, when I said that my work experience was all in retail stores but that I also wanted to try working as an administrative assistant, they immediately asked whether I knew what an administrative assistant does.

From beginning to end, they had an arrogant and conceited attitude that was genuinely uncomfortable and off-putting!!

My thought throughout the process: Did I come here to interview for a job at your company, or to be lectured by you?

In the end, they only mentioned the working hours and days off when describing the job. They spent the other 90% of the time talking nonsense, so I couldn't be bothered to ask in detail about the salary or benefits. They wasted nearly half an hour of my time and had such an arrogant attitude.

(I interviewed in a certain district of New Taipei City.)

No advantages whatsoever

Long working hours; the salary discussed during the interview did not match the job websites. You may be required to rotate among different branches for support. Despite applying for a full-time position, do you have to start as a part-time worker at the basic hourly wage? There is no benefits system at all—it entirely depends on the store manager’s mood.

First send job openings for morning shifts to job seekers and invite them for interviews.

For urgent same-day requests, confirm the interview time within three days.

When the candidate arrives on the agreed-upon second day,

then tell them that the morning-shift interviews were already completed on the first day and that there are no morning-shift positions available,

and proceed to pressure the candidate into taking a night shift.

In one word: lousy.

Not explaining things to candidates in advance wastes other people’s time and transportation costs.

In two words: absolutely lousy.

The interview attitude is arrogant and discourteous, and the words of encouragement sound like canned audio.

1. Flexible working hours

2. Learn about motorcycle helmet safety

3. If you don’t have much ambition (in terms of salary expectations) and are rather streetwise, this is a suitable place to take it easy until retirement.

1. The company is a family business and uses multiple companies under different names to circumvent the Labor Insurance and Employment Insurance requirements (even though it clearly has more than 30 employees). Labor and health insurance must be obtained through a labor union, so there is no labor pension, let alone annual leave or similar benefits. They use “honorary leave” as a substitute, but it is much less than annual leave and has many restrictions.

2. Performance bonuses are paid two months late, and they will not be paid after resignation. A former employee caused a dispute over this, so the contract was changed to state that the bonuses would no longer be paid. (If you really want to claim them, be sure to prepare evidence—this is illegal.)

3. Employees often do not stay long, so turnover is high. Staff therefore need to be trained repeatedly, and the applicants at interviews are also often of widely varying quality... The owner expands stores very quickly, so there are never enough people to fill the positions.

4. There are eight days off per month, but when a colleague takes leave, you have to work 12 hours. Taking consecutive days off means working consecutive days... Of course, this does not count as overtime.

5. The Chinese New Year vacation policy is not very clear. Usually, you have to wait until February to find out what the arrangements will be that year...

1. Family-owned business

2. Two people cover the opening and closing shifts at one store. There are two hours of overlap, but basically only one person is on duty at a time.

3. One day off per week. The closing-shift employee gets the day off first; on that day, the opening-shift employee works a 14-hour shift. The next day, the opening-shift employee gets the day off, and the closing-shift employee works 14 hours.

4. Take-home pay is approximately 28,000 per month, for around 250 working hours. This includes perfect-attendance pay of 2,000, overtime pay of 2,000, and union labor and health insurance contributions of 2,000 (there is no company insurance coverage, and no labor pension contributions either).

5. After working for more than six months, you take a promotion test. Passing it results in a 2,000 raise, with 1,000 added to the perfect-attendance pay.

6. There is a “store performance” bonus. Only the owner knows the formula, and it is paid sporadically.
