Software Engineer Interview Experience - Tokyo

June 1, 2025
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Felt relatively disconnected and automated. I would ask clarifying questions about the purpose of a question, and just be told that's the way it is. Not a very good vibe for a software company, to be honest.

Questions

Just basic software engineering questions.

Nothing really specific or job-related.
