I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Hypebeast (Hong Kong) in Sep 2020
Interview
First impression when speaking with HR, extremely rude and arrogant. If you are looking for quality people this is not how to attract talent as I was immediately put off with his condescending remarks. If this is the person who represents this company, management needs to step in and take a closer look.

Quite a straightforward interview.
