Question 1
Nothing I couldn't handle, didn't expect such an easy interview.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Actiontec (Taipei)
Interview
Get contacted by a headhunter.
The headhunter said it's a FAMOUS, with GREAT FUTURE company tightly WORKING WITH "VERIZON."
However, it was just like a gimmick to persuade new freshmen to accept the phone screen.
It turned out to be this private, no transparency, lots of bad reviews on Glassdoor company.
The headhunter said the phone screen would just be talk without tech problems.
However, it did have. (WTF Between these two companies !?)
On the phone screen, the interviewer couldn't describe clearly what's the next goal of this company.
What's the next product will be released? Does the company give up the wireless monitor casting line?
This company sounds like a sinking ship.
They just tried to tell you that you will work in a FOREIGN COMPANY COOPERATING WITH "VERIZON"!!!
How good it sounds like, right?
After the phone screen, I can clearly understand why this company needs a staffing company for them to recruit and why NO ONE TAKES IT.
