Senior Hardware Design Engineer Interview Experience - China

Process
The HR interview email was very formal, however, the technical interviewers were not formal, and their attitude was not good. This gave me a bad impression.
They asked many questions, but they were not related to the job I applied for. The manager did not attend, and the interviewers did not introduce themselves.
