Envié una solicitud electrónica. El proceso duró 1 día. Acudí a una entrevista en Rakuten (Tokio) en feb 2018
Entrevista
I had heard bad things about Rakuten.
This was an interview for a contract position that had to be filled fast.
Because of this there were no silly tests or so and everyone was very polite.
But maybe this interview does not speak for the general case. Then again Rakuten is like a hiring machine in Japan when it comes to foreigners especially.
I don't recall if they cancelled or I, but due to the bad PR surrounding the work there, I wouldn't.

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.
