Read the community guidelines－I’m sharing my interview experience because I couldn’t find any relevant information online, hoping this will help those who need it.
1. The HR representative was lively.
2. The office is a ten-minute walk from the MRT station.
3. It felt like anyone who submitted a résumé could get an interview—everyone had a chance (though I’m not sure whether it was just for show).
4. The salary offered was quite good, higher than average.
1. The office was located inside an apartment building. It was quite old, dimly lit, and very small. When I went for the interview, I saw that the company had no more than five employees.
2. The interview felt quite formulaic. They mainly introduced the company’s industry and the job duties, which was fine. However, they said that traditional industries are stable and offer long-term development, while startups are unstable and will quickly disappear. This was difficult to agree with. They repeatedly emphasized that their company was very stable and profitable... I don’t believe a profitable company would rent an office in a place like that—or spend nothing on renovations. The environment was truly quite old and dimly lit.
3. It felt like anyone who submitted a résumé could get an interview—everyone had a chance (though I’m not sure whether it was just for show). The interview lasted 30 minutes and started and ended on time. When I left, the next candidate was already waiting outside. During the interview, they also said: “A lot of people have applied for this position. I suggest that you look around and compare your options; you don’t necessarily have to wait for us.”
4. The position required attending social engagements and drinking alcohol.
5. The interviewer asked personal questions, such as whether I had a boyfriend. They said that someone at the company had originally been single, but met someone through work after joining the company and then left to get married.
→ What I’m trying to say is: whether someone resigns depends on their personal career plans and on whether the company wants people to stay—it has nothing to do with whether they are single, right?
