Horrible! At first, I had an online assessment, and then they asked me to go to their HQ for the next stage. When I entered their office, they confiscated my iPhone without informing me beforehand that devices from non-Samsung brands would be confiscated. They put me in a group and gave us several tasks. We were asked to debate with the other group while blindfolded. They didn’t give us time to eat properly during lunch; we had to work on the tasks while eating, and I couldn’t even finish my food. The HR manager at that time didn’t wear a mask while everyone else did during the Covid period, and he was very arrogant and rude. He completely lost my respect. There is no point in having a title if your attitude is terrible. They also didn’t respect Muslims, who are the majority in the country, because they held the assessment on a Friday. Muslim men had to leave the venue to perform their prayers, which probably caused them to return late and be at a disadvantage. It also reflected a lack of respect for Malaysia’s cultural and religious diversity, as the assessment schedule did not consider the Friday prayer time for Muslim participants. The company was also terrible at time management. The assessment day was supposed to run from 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., but it was extended until 6:30 p.m., and I ended up with a severe headache. I regret going there. It truly traumatized me. I hated every moment of that day, and I’ll never forget and forgive how they treated me. I haven’t purchased any Samsung products since then.

-Poor time management The assessment center takes too long and expect for a whole day assessment center. -Negative environment The assessors are snarky all the time and I suppose this should reflect their working culture. -Interesting case and design but, it is obviously designed to make you fail. If the company made it a point to design their assessment center to be this difficult, I assume it must be a toxic working environment.
