I never applied but a Recruiter reached out to me through indeed. We had a screen call and I went through 3 rounds of interviews with 5 different people- could have easily been a panel interview instead. By the final round the scope of the role changed. So the third interview was done over a 3 way phone call. I should have declined the third round but I really wanted the role and was willing to go through even though I’m completely against these multiple rounds of interviews as it doesn’t create a positive experience. The recruiter emailed me after the final interview to ask me how I felt I did but I never heard anything back from him.

Question 1
What the recruiter told me to prepare was nothing of what they asked me
On fait des entretiens, ca se passe bien, et soit on est pas rappelé (alors qu'il était convenu que l'on se rappelle sous 15 jours), soit on fait un super entretien mais en réalité celui ci était deja pourvu en interne. RIEN de sérieux
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Daikin (Shah Alam) in Dec 2023
Interview
The worst interview I have in my life. The HR is dishonest. I am having covid and need to travel from Johor all the way to Selangor for the interview, I explained my situation and HR insisted that the interview have to be physical. I finally come to the interview, and the senior engineers worked in there asked why don't we conduct the interview online and ask the HR to pay me for the travel, but finally he didn't.
The position that I applied is Robotic Engineer, but what they asked in the interview is nothing related to the job description and Robotics and when I asked them, they said because none of them know robotic. They planning to hire someone that can do everything of the robotics with a very low salary offer.
The HR keeps downgrade you during interview. When I introduce myself, he keeps interrupt and try to disturb. E.g, when I mentioned I got gold award in a International competition, he said the competition means nothing and it is useless.
The HR is very not professional. Just because he noticed from my resume that I done my internship in Huawei, he mentioned he knew everyone in Huawei expecting high salary, but don't expect high salary in Daikin, because they are in different sector. In fact, I didn't mentioned at all about Huawei and the salary that i requested from Daikin is 2k lesser than Huawei offered me.
