I had an interview with Rakuten, and it consisted of three rounds.
The first round was Codility.
The second round was a Technical Interview (the interviewer was extremely friendly and asked various questions about core Java knowledge).
The third round was a Behavioral Interview (the Japanese interviewer was super cute and asked typical behavioral questions).
Everyone there was really nice, from HR to the interviewers.
