I arranged three interview sessions but only met two interviewers. The first interviewer mentioned that my experience is primarily in back-office support. However, I believe this point is irrelevant, as I assumed my CV had already been reviewed and assessed prior to the interview. If my background did not align with the role requirements, I’m unsure why I was invited to interview in the first place, as it did not make much sense to me.
Additionally, I found the stated working hours—8:00 to 22:00 with standby requirements throughout—to be quite unreasonable. This raises serious concerns about work-life balance.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Self introduction, past experiences and not much they asked.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Value Partners Group (Hong Kong) in Dec 2024
Interview
No longer a professional firm after Chinese management. Had a good time with several mid-management who are knowledgeable and pleasant. The chinese lady chairman is a disaster, does not know the business at all, always trying to steal ideas from candidates (spoken with another candidate), and no respect for candidates’ time (changed interview time 3 times)
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Value Partners Group (Hong Kong) in Jan 2020
Interview
The interview process at Value Partners Group was well-organized and professional. It included an initial phone screen, followed by a technical interview and a final in-person interview. The questions were relevant and challenging.
