You'll meet with HR first for an English test, which is pretty basic. If you pass that, you'll meet your hiring manager on Day 1. If you're good enough, you'll get invited for a second interview. In the second interview, your hiring manager will meet with you again, this time with a top manager (like the division head or president). After that, you'll meet with HR again to go over your background and talk about salary.

Behavioral Technical Case

It was a mix of things, first some basic questions about Sony and what they offer. Then we did a basic selling scenario. They asked about my goals within the company and how I see myself in 2 years. Also, they threw in a situation about how I'd handle a really angry customer who might walk away from the deal.
