Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 5 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Rakuten (Tokio) en jul 2015
Entrevista
I applied online, dropped CV. Then I had to take a coding test on codility and a video interview on prerecorded question. The problem on coding was easy, but data type had to be handled carefully. About 3 weeks after the coding test, they mailed me that I was selected for skype interview. There were total 3 skype interviews which were technical, and one interview on phone where I was asked HR type questions. Technical Interview questions were fairly easy, mostly basic networking, OOP questions, and some programming problems. All interviewers were friendly. After 5 months of processing, I was rejected.

Acudí a una entrevista en Rakuten (San Francisco, CA)
Entrevista
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.
