Had an awful experience with Rakuten. No first welcome round, just a letter and a "leetcode" test with 2 tasks medium level.
The next interview was with a leader engineer and a manager. The engineer was doing his own stuff at the half of time and once his time came, he asked me the same questions.
I feel I was treated pretty badly, maybe because I am a girl.
After the interview they sent me a letter with a card, not even a personalised message that they reject me.

Multiple rounds. First round talked about experience and what the company/role Second round went deeper into technical experience and also had a live coding challenge. Third round was a take home assignment. Second round interview was botched on their end twice - issue with zoom and wasted multiple hours of my time over two days before finally getting it right the third time. Submitted the take home and didn't hear anything for weeks, only be to told by a recruiter they've filled the role. Completely unprofessional to not even schedule the follow up to the take home after asking me to invest my time into it. Writing was on the wall with how the second round was handled. Totally disorganized and unprofessional.
