Software Developer Interview Experience - Japan

Process

You start with a technical coding test at codility.com. There was one question with 60 minutes to complete the task. It wasn't too challenging, and there are plenty of practice challenges on the website that you can do prior to taking the test. I highly suggest it in order to get a feel for how the website works and what parameters they may check for in their test cases.

After that, you get a video interview. You are told the questions in advance so you can prepare for them. The video interview is pre-recorded, so you are not actually talking to a person on the other side just yet.
