I applied online. I interviewed at Active Gaming Media (Ōsaka, Osaka)
Interview
The interview was remote and involved 2 interviewers. I mainly spoke to one person and she was friendly. After being told clearly that I was hired, I did not hear from them for a while. Then all of a sudden they asked me to start working on Christmas last minute after on/off ghosting me. The communication was horrible hence why I chose to not move forward with them (I was unemployed trying to find stable work).
