I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Rakuten in Feb 2023
Interview
The company’s official language is English. They told me the interview would be in Japanese and I told them to withdraw me from the process as I currently speak only very basic Japanese. They responded to say the interview would be conducted in English. The interview was conducted in Japanese. The three interviewers asked me a series of technical and behavioural questions. In response I told them my dog’s name, my favourite flavour of ice cream and asked directions to the swimming pool. I worry someone’s time may have been wasted, there…
Positive experience
Average interview
Application
I interviewed at Rakuten (Tokyo) in Jan 2023
Interview
It started with a call from a recruiter, once that 15 mins call was interviews were scheduled after 3 weeks. The interview was okay, but the interviewer was not very good interms for vocabulary and explanation, overall an okay experience
