Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 1 semana. Acudí a una entrevista en Rakuten Symphony (Tokio) en jul 2025
Entrevista
It was a preliminary screener interview. They replied within a week of me applying. I surmised it was due to myself having worked in CPaaS startup before. It was through google meet. An HR person waited when i joined and we waited for the actual technical interviewer to join in from India
In the end the tech interviewer said i would receive an invite for a technical task which never arrived and only then after a week i understood i mouthed off too much (maybe about another well known telco company). They only sent a confirmation 2.5 weeks after that initial screener that i would not be receiving the tech task. It is what it is
