J'ai postulé via un recruteur. J'ai passé un entretien chez Rakuten en mars 2021
Entretien
The interview process was very straightforward and rather simple. The questions didn't seem too difficult, but the interviewers were all very pleasant and easy to talk to throughout the interview. However, the last interviewer (VP or lead of some kind, can't remember the exact title) was a little terse and seemed condescending at times, so the last interview was not as pleasant but still pretty lax as we only talked about very general things and personal experiences.

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.
