I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Rakuten in Oct 2012
Interview
I was contacted through LinkedIn and the company seemed very interested in me. That said, after failing to call me for the first phone interview, I needed to prompt them to reschedule. Shortly before the second, they requested a reschedule for the next day, which I agreed to, but I never heard from them for the second interview. After having been forgotten twice for phone interviews, I chose not to follow up again.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There were no interview questions as I was never called for my scheduled interviews.
Applied online. Initial screening with the hiring manager. Questions from resume. Technologies used. Java basic questions. Salary expectations. About the role and team. Leetcode question - no coding - just mention the approach. System design question.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Leetcode question - no coding - just mention the approach. System design question.
Disorganized, no HR reached out to discuss about the administrative details and salary and benefits, the hiring manager reached out directly, scheduled a meeting and asked about HR questions(visa, RTO etc.)
The hiring manager was late for over 5 mins minutes, no apologies, no greetings. Negative experience
The interview covered Python libraries, networking, and my software engineering experience. While questions were basic, they can be tricky for seniors. Review your definitions alongside your past projects to succeed.
