I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Kao Corporation (London, England) in Apr 2015
Interview
I had to go through a phone interview first, then got invited to a face to face interview in their office with someone from the HR department. Once this step was validated I came back to meet with the senior brand manager and senior director to present a case I had prepared. Half of the interview was on this case, and the other half was on my professional experience and personality.

I asked for the call to be rescheduled which it was and the exact same thing happened - this time I called back immediately and no answer. I followed up with emails but have since heard nothing.
