Constantly emphasizing that they’re very willing to pay generously

(See whether someone with senior experience will share their thoughts)

This is probably the worst experience I’ve had among the dozens of interviews in my life.

The interview was originally scheduled for 4 p.m., but they suddenly said they had a client to attend to and moved it to 5 p.m.

When 5 p.m. arrived, the client was still chatting away nonstop, so they had a PT employee take me to the room next door to talk with me (yes, you read that correctly).

The interview did not actually start until around 6:10.

----------------------------------------------------------------

There were roughly two useful things I learned from talking with the PT employee:

1. There is no time clock and no system whatsoever for recording working hours.

(Violation of the Labor Standards Act.)

2. I’ve seen you recruiting for years, and the position has been posted continuously.

Is it just being used as advertising, or can’t you find the people you want?

PT employee: It’s simply because the turnover is very high.

(Huh? A low-level job that pays NT$400,000–500,000 a year and can be done by a middle school student has very high turnover?)

----------------------------------------------------------------

At the beginning of the interview, I mentioned that I hoped to work for a law-abiding company.

So I asked about clocking in and out.

The boss said: “What do you mean by ‘law-abiding’? Whether we pay daily or weekly is fine; we pay you according to how long you stay each day, and all the money is paid out. Where’s the legal problem?” (Wait—if you don’t record working hours, how do you know how much to pay?) “When I worked at MSI before, everyone did it this way too. Where’s the legal problem?” (An extremely inappropriate statement.)

Then, starting from the issue of recording working hours, he kept going in circles and shifted into a mode where his meaning was unclear. The gist was roughly as follows:

“Do you know that when people join, we still have to train them?” (Training costs.)

“Do you know how much we pay?”

“The livestreamer only comes in three days a week, and we pay them ***.” (Wow, how high.)

“What are your expectations for yourself in the future?” (After I answered, he kept picking at it.)

“I think what you’re looking for right now is stability, but what we want are people who want to make a lot of money.… Right, at the beginning, what can you really do? You $^#^@...” (trailing off)

--------------------------------------------------------------

Basically, after I asked about the time-clock system, the interviewer not only kept showing the job seeker his arrogance, but also kept forcing his own supposed correctness on me. He would occasionally interrupt the interview to use his phone to reply to customers, and then, while still in the middle of speaking, simply said he had to deal with his phone and reply to customers, and told me to go home.

In summary: Leaving aside punctuality and the level of respect shown during the interview,

When a company hires someone, it doesn’t know what kind of person they are.

So, as the entry ticket for trustworthiness, isn’t their experience and professionalism what matters?

Likewise, when a job seeker joins a company, they don’t know what the company is like.

So, regarding trustworthiness, the only thing that can be judged is whether it complies with the law.

After seeing the boss’s attitude, I can really understand

why the turnover has remained so high for so many years.
