I got a call from Top Group San Francisco that works with Japanese firms. A week later I got an interview to a direct hire position with Nippon Express USA and the process consisted of: 1st Interview: 1)20-30 minutes completing their job application ( it has to be very accurate and exact, in other words, no answer must be blank) 2)45 minutes group interview with HR coordinator/recruiter and Division Manager (they want to know if you are not only the right match for the job, but also for their multicultural - mostly Asian - environment) 3)20-30 minutes skills test ( basic math, conversion, geography, business letter) 2nd Interview and last (a week later): For those candidates who pass the first round The second interview is also a group interview including last interviewers plus the General Manager and HR Manager. It lasts approximately an hour. There are multiple questions related to your job experience in which examples are required. This is also the time to ask significant questions about the company and specific operational plans according to the job position. Final decision: It was sent to my Top Group firm recruiter in this case.

Two interviewers interviewed me. They told me that they would like to hire someone who has experiences for this position. I do not have any experience, then, 15mins, my interview finished.
