There are some fun to have as a HR. For example, being allowed to log into hunter websites is one of the benefits. I have a number of interesting experiences which are not proper to share with my colleagues as they may not be able to capture my feelings.
So, what delighted me during my work? There was a time that I logged in to the hunter website to look for qualified candidates for interview. Suddenly, a familiar key word just pop up. Guess what?! That's a foreigner who used to study in Sheffield Hallam applying for a job in my company! It was just rare that I can still feel the connection to Sheffield though I am in Taiwan. Another case is, I saw a friend who I made in Sheffield applied for a vacancy in my company! I was so surprised at the moment when I opened his resume but I just had to be fair and admitted that he was not qualified enough for the position. Aside from this, noticing someone who used to work in the brands I like also makes me happy, i.e., there was someone who used to work in TKMaxx which is my favorite store in UK!
Anyway, I adore anything relates to my UK life. And, today, I am pleased again. I had an interview with a candidate who used to work in Tesco Taiwan! Oh! And this is the first time that I know there was Tesco Taiwan! According to The Guardian, Tesco exits Taiwan in 2005 and was absorbed into Carrefour. What a sad! I couldn't join the time that Tesco develops here. (Tesco to Pull out of Taiwan)
When it comes to Tesco, yes, it is one of my most beautiful memory in UK. Therefore, it was in my visiting point for my trip to UK in December 2014. I just wanted to feel the household shopping memory there. Oh, and I can't put the self checkout system and the reduced stuff alongside as they are all my favorite parts of Tesco.
