Hi!
Never rely on a forum for deadlines :)
Always go straight to the source.
These things differ a lot between firms, offices and roles, so the only people who have accurate knowledge of them are the people who set them.
It's also a great networking opportunity in the process.
Lastly, make sure that you diversify your application and apply to multiple development firms. Sharing with you a guide on how to develop such a strategy:
Good luck!

Great question for both networking and asking the recruiter!
I'd also be surprised if they just have, generically, an “Asian office". Rather, double-check that they don't have multiple offices/sub-regions.

Hi, meaning you've cold emailed HR with no response? Personally, I find cold outreach to HR to be quite unfruitful. Rather, network with consultants and work your way towards the answer (and HR, and referral) that way.
Tough one, why are you not asking HR directly? Totally fine to do so. Best of luck! Frederic

I'd say you can wait about a week and then follow-up. If they don't answer, try to find them on linkedin.
