No, generally, there is no visa interview for a Malaysian work permit, as the work visa application process is taken care of by the employer in Malaysia. The employer who offers you a job in Malaysia will initiate the work visa process on your behalf. The employer will submit all the required documents to the Malaysian Immigration Department and may have to undergo an interview with the officials. Once the work visa application is approved, you will be given a Visa with Reference (VDR), allowing you to enter Malaysia legally without any interviews. You can then apply for a valid Malaysian work visa at the nearest consulate. The processing time for a Malaysian work visa may vary depending on the work visa type you applied for.
