[In-person interview] I wanted to get the job before I went to the in-person interview in London because the company seemed attractive to me. This is not only their name, but also it seemed open atmosphere, and employees were from various countries, and they seemed professional. There were two managers, one American male manager and one Japanese female manager who was his boss. As soon as she read my CV, she said: “I DON’T understand why you gave up all your career in Tokyo and came to the University in the U.K.!” That was not a question… however, I prepared for such a sort of question. During the interview, she again said: “I DON’T understand why you want to go back to the same place (i.e. Finance sector)!”. Again, I answered. Not only those questions that I was wondering, but I was not sure if that was the company’s culture or another thing…and those discouraged me from working for them, and I completely lost my interest in them. Even so, that was a valuable experience that I had with such a competitive company because I prepared a lot for the interviews. Such experience helped me to get a current great job.
