CADDi interview questions

Multi-round process: recruiter screen, a VP-level interview, a panel interview, and references collected before any offer was extended — which felt like an unusual sequencing. Recruiting coordination was consistently disorganized, with repeated errors in written communications that I had to flag myself. The interview questions felt less focused on role-specific skills and more on personal fit and values alignment. Ultimately rejected after references were completed, with no feedback provided.

I was contacted by a headhunter, and the role is to coordinate off-shore teams in southeast Asia e.g. Thailand, Vietnam with Japan team. They need both high Japanese proficiency (I have N1 but maybe my speaking failed them) and English proficiency therefore. The first interview was a casual interview with hiring manager, and it was chill. But I did not make it to the next round , explicitly told that my Japanese language command is not good enough.
