The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Rakuten (Salt Lake City, UT)
Interview
Applied two other positions, had an interview with a manager who left to other company 3 days after the interview. Didn't get any feedback from them and then offered a different position that I hadn't applied for. No response for 2 weeks and gave me a notice that I didn't make it. It was a terrible experience. I find it very disturbing that they would set up interviews with an employer who is leaving in couple of days after the interview. Plus, not getting any response from a recruiter (Summer) is irresponsible and rude.
Thank you for your feedback. We are committed to improving the candidate experience and the information you’ve provided will help us greatly in that effort.
Application
I interviewed at Rakuten
Interview
First round with recruiter, second round with hiring manager. First round consisted of going down each experience on resume and talking about what you learned and did. It was very much a conversational interview with no behavioral questions.
I applied online. I interviewed at Rakuten in Apr 2021
Interview
Applied on website, HR reached out to set up a 30 min call. The call was a typical conversational interview, with the normal questions you would expect at every interview.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Rakuten (New York, NY) in Aug 2018
Interview
The interview process was long but very professional. I went through 7 rounds of interviews that included some phone and some in-person. Everyone who interviewed me was very knowledgeable, kind, and considerate of my time. I was amazed at how prepared everyone was. Of all my interviews, this was the only employer where every single person printed my resume out beforehand. Some had even written notes in the margins. This level of dedication and attention to detail made me realize how special Rakuten Marketing is.
