Process
I took an entry-level software engineer interview in Korea.
There was one onsite coding test, followed by several interviews.
I spent a whole day on the last interview. As I remember, it consisted of 2-3 sections.

Pros: Good benefits such as free 3 meals per day, shuttle bus from almost everywhere, and bonuses. The pay is well compared to the average salary in Korea. There are also well-organized activity clubs outside of work.
Cons: You might struggle if you are a proactive, working person, as orders come from your boss. Due to the company’s size, it can sometimes be challenging to gain visibility into what other teams are doing or to fully understand how the business generates revenue and functions overall.
