I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Rakuten (Hirakata, Osaka) in Jul 2016
Interview
It took about 3 months from my initial application till I received an offer letter. Applied from Japan.
Coding test at codility and an interview with prerecorded questions, followed by 3 1-on-1 interviews over Skype. Interviews would always start with generic questions (why rakuten, etc), but would eventually turn technical and interesting. My level of Japanese was tested at every interview.
HR were very helpful and quick-to-respond throughout the entire process.
Looking forward to the offer meeting now.
Applied online. Initial screening with the hiring manager. Questions from resume. Technologies used. Java basic questions. Salary expectations. About the role and team. Leetcode question - no coding - just mention the approach. System design question.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Leetcode question - no coding - just mention the approach. System design question.
Disorganized, no HR reached out to discuss about the administrative details and salary and benefits, the hiring manager reached out directly, scheduled a meeting and asked about HR questions(visa, RTO etc.)
The hiring manager was late for over 5 mins minutes, no apologies, no greetings. Negative experience
The interview covered Python libraries, networking, and my software engineering experience. While questions were basic, they can be tricky for seniors. Review your definitions alongside your past projects to succeed.
