Solicité el puesto a través de un captador. Acudí a una entrevista en Rakuten (Tokio) en may 2023
Entrevista
The first stage was solving a problem on the Codility platform. Then after reviewing my CV, they invited me to the Interview. At the first Interview, there was only one woman, who is the manager. It seemed to me that she was not ready for an interview or was lazy to ask me questions. Instead of almost 40 minutes (the interview was for 45 minutes) I asked questions regarding the upcoming tasks, their goals and working process in a team, etc. In the end, she asked one statistical question- I answered and she said that it is correct. However, the result was negative with short feedback that I have less experience in Data Science, despite the fact that they already read my resume and invited me to the interview.
