Because your career motivation and aspiration is wsy more important than your current talent. No point hiring a super genius who hate his job.

Or a genius that would hop to another job with no sense of loyalty or ownership, hence I respectfully disagree with TS’ arbitrary list of non-empirically based definitions/questions.

So any China man co like Hartalega? What about Grab? Although they experienced some financial issue and had to let go some staffs, but from what I hear from friend work there, seems quite ok.

I ingat big boss secretary always change is a good sign. This way, we don't have to cow down to a domineering and powerful secretary.

How to know a co whereby boss go find fault at the staff? I can only think of asking ex staffs and glassdoor.

I think for no.12 to happen, you either have to be a high sought after global talent or you got some skills the co really wants. Of course, these companies has to be very forward thinking and ahead of its curve, macam MNC.

BP healthcare. Hahaha. I once know a very close friend who worked there. The stories I hear from that company, I really roll my eyes and pengsan.

I agree with you, that when you go interview if you see a tensed environment its a red flag. For eg, I did go for one interview, I saw outside like the staffs don;t talk to each other, just look at their laptops in their cubicles. I was in a glass meeting room. I waited there for 10min before start interview, so I observed.

It is very easy to post jobstreet ad in the weekend mah. Doesn't mean staff work in weekend. Sometimes when I got time, I just open my laptop and check the people who apply for jobs at my co, for me to look for candidates.

On no.8, it has to be within the same industry expertise lor. For eg, I was in a certain industry, I didn't want to stay long. So I changed to another one.
