Rakuten

The first round of the interview focused on discussing my projects and the courses I have completed. The second round primarily assessed my interest in working in Japan, and the interviewer also explained the salary structure.

It took about 3 months from my initial application till I received an offer letter. I applied from Japan. Coding test at Codility and an interview with prerecorded questions, followed by 3 1-on-1 interviews over Skype. Interviews would always start

Emailed manager over the course of 3 months, getting a total of 10 email responses. Responses sounded very positive. Unexpectedly said no thanks at the end. Did not even get an interview offer.
