I’ve never understood why the HR people always see “not asking questions about the company” or “not demonstrating knowledge about the company” as such a red flag.
People are looking for a job, not a cult to join.
They want cultists though. Easier to exploit
Once I did an online interview process were they had a whole video and slideshow explaining about the company history and culture and the employees were saying about how it was a position for people who “truly believed in the mission of the company”.
And then they had a quiz about it.
They truly want a cult. Fuck em.I worked at Asus as a software developer for a while, had ti do a whole ass course on the history of the company. With unskippable videos and a questionnaire after as well. Pretty sure that took the better part of a day.
I only worked on the internal systems that really don’t have anything to do with the actual products Asus makes.
