I am not a fan of using "performative enthusiasm about the job/company" to evaluate interview performance. Many enthusiastic candidates will fail to display it legibly in interview format. Conversely, trivial to "fake it" for 40 minutes if known to be on rubric.

There are many Japanese salaryman who did not also choose to subclass in American geek, so if you have enthusiasm as a criteria, you're likely to false negative them given interviewer pool. At risk of stating obvious: Japanese salarymen are not the only group this applies to.

Salaryman enthusiasm? Oh, you know - I'd say almost nothing during the interview. I'd agree with substantially everything you said, mostly monosyllabic answers. I'd nod a bit - not too much - and dial formality to 11. What, Americans do enthusiasm differently? How do you do it?
