I had a call scheduled with a recruiter from Kao, on the designated time she called for 10 seconds and then emailed saying she couldn't get through, I called back immediately (still in my allocated interview time) and couldn't get through. I asked for the call to be rescheduled which it was and the exact same thing happened - this time I called back immediately and no answer. I followed up with emails but have since heard nothing.

Behavioral Presentation

The interview process had 2 stages. The first was with HR, and the second involved the HRBP, hiring manager, and HR. The interviews were friendly, lasted 1 hour, and were conducted in both English and Mandarin. They said they'd respond within a week, but I never heard back, and my follow-ups were ignored.

Behavioral

The interview process was quick and easy. The recruiter was friendly, professional, and responsive. He informed me of next steps if selected, and gave me an update when I was not selected. I really appreciated this because it can be frustrating waiting to hear one way or another. The company's response allowed me to move forward with my search.
