I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Rakuten (Tokyo) in Oct 2022
Interview
I applied in compus for the new grad position. INPD Dept. 1 round OA, then document screening. 2 round interview. Tech questions and behavior questions like motivation to join us, your future career plan etc. Overall atmosphere was good. Sadly no offer. It seems they prefer the students who have studied in Japan rather oversea students.

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.
