Q&A

Is there a dress code for interview(s)?
Feel free to wear whatever you like. Interviewers are also welcomed to dress casually. There are also no requirements on what to bring. Bring a pen/pencil and notepad if you want to take notes.
What is the selection process? How long does it take?
The normal course (may be subject to change) is document screening → interview and coding test → informal offer. Selection averages about 1 month, but can be adjusted on a case-by-case basis.
Is remote work an option?
Yes, our system does allow remote work. But we also understand the importance of face-to-face communication, so we offer engineers and creative staff the option of coming to work once a week or three times a week.
What sort of efforts do you have for promoting internal communication?
Our various initiatives include the Know Me program that subsidizes dinner for groups of three members from different departments; the Yoriai program that provides free drinks (including alcohol) and snacks after work; and Yoiko, an in-house system where employees plan and carry out group activities aimed at community development.
Are there any programs to support learning technological skills?
Our Geek Seek program subsidizes expenses related to skills development and working more efficiently for members in engineering, R&D, and creative positions. This includes purchase of specialized books on technology, design, etc., online learning, acquiring qualifications, and examination fees for qualifications; purchase of hardware and software useful toward improving expertise and work efficiency; purchase of a new personal smartphone once a year to keep up with the latest technology (for some members); and costs of social gatherings when in-house study groups are held.
I've applied to Sansan in the past. Can I apply again?
You can reapply for the same position only after 6 months have passed since your last application. You can apply for a different position at any time.
