I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at TransPerfect (Tokyo) in Jun 2014
Interview
Way too many interviews for this junior position. Got the interview through employee referral. There were two phone interviews and two face-to-face interviews. There was also a project management test.
A phone screening with HR and a test after. A test consisted of copy editing and formatting which is not exactly the main project coordinator activities so it seemed odd that they are treated as a prerequisite for getting a job.
First call with HR, then with Dept Manager, then in-person interview with hiring managers. The whole process was quick, hiring managers were lovely and the questions were aligned with the role. Interview with Detp Manager was easy.
5 interviews (1 in person) for an entry level position and 2700-3300 salary/month. Told me only at 2nd interview that I'm expected to work overtime and weekends all the time.
