      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Sony (New York, NY) in Nov 2022

      Interview

      I applied for the position and was sent a pre-interview email asking several questions. After responding to each question, I was sent a translation test with 4 short texts. 3 into Japanese and 1 into English. They gave me 1 hour to complete it from when it was sent. It's not from the time you open the email but from the time the recruiter sends it. Unfortunately, they sent it at 6:30pm on a Thursday so I was not able to complete all of it the test and Sony did not move forward with me.
