I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Rakuten in Apr 2015
Interview
As described in the other posts, there were three steps: resume screening, video interview and coding test. The coding test was actually much easier than I expected. They usually take 1 to 2 weeks to answer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to work for us? Describe your technical background? Why are you leaving your current job?
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.

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.
