I applied through university. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Rakuten (Tokyo)
Interview
First round is a online code test. It is about area overlapped by two rectangles.
Second is a skype interview with two of their technical engineers.
They will ask you to introduce yourself first. Then,it is the question session.
They like asking some fundamental questions like questions about operating system, compilers so study them well.
They will also ask you some questions about projects you have done or doing.
I am waiting for the third round.
Interview questions [1]

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.
