Asian Boss VS Western Boss

Do you have an Asian Boss? Or you have a Western Boss? If you never have a Western Boss, then you may not notice the difference. But this girl, she got an exciting interview experience between Asian and Wester boss. I think it is worth to post it here for everyone to read.

--------------------------

I am female who work in Network field as well. For the wages, i think sometimes it really depends on how well you demonstrate/ sell yourself during the stage of the interview and the overall impression that you gv to interviewers.

I am holding first class honor degree and distinction for my master degree from UK by age 24. Most of the interviews that I have done with typical Asian bosses were general awful...I figured that they felt threaten by my qualifications and even told me something like " If I train you up, I don't think you are going to stay long"..Now I work with MNC and I landed this job after 3 round interviews. I met 2 asian bosses during my second interview. They told me straight that they didn''t have intention to train fresh grad. But after 3 months, i contacted by HR for 3rd interview. HR informed me that the bosses from USA are coming to interview me after they review my resume as they plan to set up a new team here. So I got the job at the end. I told my bosses (Americans) straight that I don't have any technical experiences in IT field. They assure me that they do train fresh grad (see..the difference? Asian bosses mostly selfish).I have been trained for 1 and half month before they put me into the real post. Sometimes timing and luck play important roles.

Apparently, there is a huge difference, maybe due to different education background and hence different thinking.
