Applied online on rakuten's website in September for intern positions.
Waited a month for the online test, it was super ez, impossible to not get perfect if u are cs major
Waited 2 weeks for the result, then scheduled for the skype interview
Was told there will be another interview with the senior manager, and waited more than a month, then they decided to cancel the last interview. It was very frustrating.
However, they didn't specifically say that I got the offer, but told me that I am moved to the next step for further processing. Their English was confusing sometimes.
Waited another month, emailed the recruiter, and they changed a recruiter.
Waited another month, and finally hearing back from them by Christmas about the detail of the internship.
Got the salary information on Jan 10, 2017
It is February now, been a month since the last update about the offer, and I am still waiting for the flight, visa, and accommodation information.
I applied for multiple intern positions on their website, but it seems like they stop considering you for other position once you got one offer from them. I was hoping for a similar position in a different city but can't get another interview.
Gotta say, their interview process is very lengthy, and slow.
