I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Rakuten Kobo
Interview
Was contacted through email. The phone interview was set up by someone in talent acquisition. They were nice but only asked simple personality questions that didn't allow for much time to describe more technical skills.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We love connecting with our candidates during our phone screenings as it allows us to get a brief background on their experience level. If the candidate qualifies, we then invite them to the next round of interviews which is more technical. We hope you enjoyed your experience and that you continue to apply for future opportunities at Rakuten Kobo!
