J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Rakuten (New York, NY) en févr. 2015
Entretien
The process took months which was frustrating. There was an extended application process where you had to submit a video, as well as a fairly easy coding test. The weird part was the actual in-person interview: although they have you select from quite a large amount of teams and locations I only interviewed with one, and it was like a 5 on 1 interview that ended up being in Japanese because, to be frank, their English wasn't the greatest. It was a completely behavioral interview too, which I was surprised by since the online coding challenge was fairly simple.

J'ai passé un entretien chez Rakuten (San Francisco, CA)
Entretien
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.
