Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Rakuten
Colloquio
I though I've already seen the worst hiring process until I interview with Rakuten. I applied online and HR contacted me for a phone screening. Unfortunately, HR was late for almost 30min for that scheduled phone call. I was then told to send him my recent availability so that he can arrange an interview with the hiring manager. And that's the last time I heard from HR. Not replying my follow-up email, not sending me the rejection letter either. Not at all professional.
this interview process had 5 rounds
2 was a tech test
３ were conversational in nature
with various managers from direct and indirect to the department manager mostly in Japan but also outside Japan.
1st Interview was simple leetcode task and some questions about Kubernetes. 2nd interview - classical ML and DL questions, Final interview is mostly informal, but there may appear some questions about specific experience and problem solving
