I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Keyence (London, England) in May 2016
Interview
Initially there was a video interview which consisted of 3 questions - the question would appear on the screen and you would have a short amount of time to prepare your answer before it started to record. Following this, there was an interview in my city with 2 members of staff. The final stage was then an interview in London with 4 members of staff. This was quite a lengthy interview in comparison to the others. Both interviews involved a role play situation. There was also a psychometric test to complete before the final interview stage.

Have you had any previous experience that would be beneficial in a sales environment?
I applied through university. I interviewed at Keyence
Interview
My interview process consisted of two rounds. Was flown out to Chicago to role play one of their products. Thirty minutes of behavioral was pretty typical. The thirty minutes of technical role play was on the more difficult side - thought it went well but wasn't given an offer.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Keyence (Hanoi) in Apr 2026
Interview
In the initial round, i have quick interview with the HR staff, and a 30 minutues IQ test (the test was moderate level i think)
I think all people there all pass Round 1 tho
I applied online. I interviewed at Keyence (Hanoi) in Apr 2026
Interview
1st round. 5 minutes. Interviewed by one manager, face-to-face. Most questions are quite typical, such as your experience, your reasoning for the application, your general understanding of the role, and your strengths and weaknesses. There's one question, though, where you have to think on your feet, which can be tricky.
