I first spoke with the recruiter, and honestly this was the worst interview experience I’ve ever had. The recruiter showed zero respect. I mispronounced the company name because I didn’t know “MA” was supposed to be read in Chinese, and she immediately mocked me and questioned whether I had done any research. Honestly, when I apply to each company, it’s impossible for me to thoroughly understand all of their business, only a general idea. I applied for an Assistant Product Manager role, but when I explained my PM background, she said, “This isn’t a PM position. I don’t know why you even applied.” If it’s not a PM role, then why post a misleading job description and waste everyone’s time? She was impatient, unprofessional, and couldn’t even understand a basic question about team structure. Honestly, if this is the kind of recruiter they hire, it already tells you everything about the company.

The HR reached to me on Linkedin and emailed me the JD. I was soon invited to the interview. At first Introduction, then behavioral questions, strengths and weakness, introducing duties, start time.
