Principal Engineer Interview Experience

October 27, 2012
Neutral ExperienceGot Offer

Process

English (TOEIC) and character test.

Interview with the manager, then an HR member.

Hiring or not is mostly dependent on the manager's choice, but HR will advise if there are any concerns.

Or you might need to interview with higher-level managers if needed.

But the final decision will be up to HR's comment if they don't buy into this choice.

Questions

Character and attitude are more important than what you can do. They mostly focus on candidates from tier-one schools (NCHU, NTU, NCKU, ...).
