Interviewed May 2010 (took a day)
it is an ok company with limited resource as every Japanese company. The interviewers were professional but lack of knowledge about quality control and technique. The office area was clean and I felt welcomed. By showing the strong background I had in the area, I was given an offer several days after the interview.
Other Details
I Applied Online and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview, a Group/Panel Interview, a Personality Test, a Drug Test and a Background Check.

Interviewed Mar 2009 in Irvine, CA (took 2 days)
Phone interview, and several one on one interviews with various levels of management. Questions were standard interview questions, with some information about the resume. Many of the managers appeared to have difficult personalities, covered by a smiling face.
Looks like they were looking for personality match, with relevant experience in the resume. Lasted an hour or so, got call back next day.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
Was lucky and received 5K over my requested salary. Personally, doing it all over again, I would have asked for more money if I knew what the company was really like. Just be insistent on your target salary, and don't back down. Don't worry, you will earn it. Employees are often tasked with responsibilities well beyond their current workload.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Irvine, CA (took a day)
After speaking briefly to the internal recruiter I had an initial phone interview with the hiring manager for a position in the marketing group. The interview lasted approximately 30 minutes and focused on my experience that was relevant to the job. Hiring manager closed by asking what unique skills or attributes I would bring to the job and asked about my availability for a face to face interview. The face to face interview was never scheduled even after I followed up to get a status on the position.

Interviewed Apr 2009 (took a day)
Had a nice talk with the sales manager. Was very short and informal. At the end told me that he had so many candidates that this was just to disqualify people and he didn't see any reason to disqualify me. Never followed up as I received an offer from another company the next day.
