I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Telephone, TX) in Sept 2019
Interview
10-12 email chases where recruiter said they sent something, but it never made it to my inbox or spam. Then we'd set up a time for a special call to prepare me, but it was just reiterating the pages of information about interviewing on their website. Then another 3-5 emails chasing down the real interviewer schedule. I had a 35+ minute interview finally for a job they described in the last 3 minutes that i would never want to do. total waste of time.
Did a test task and was called by HR almost immediately for the next round. But salary range (full packet with stock and benefits) and return to office policy did nit much my expectations
very standard. the interviewers had a set of questions to ask about the LPs so we can anticipate beforehand. But I think I got ghosted in the end. One of the interviewers told me about the 2 & 5 rule but its been more than 2 weeks since my last interview and still no response from anyone so idk what happened.
Lengthy, messy schedule, interviews canceled last minute, interviewer late. Rude, disrespectful and dismissive approach toward candidate. Majority of people were from a different team so had no clue about the specifics of the position when asked in the final Q&A. If they treat you like this before joining, can’t imagine after. Application withdrawn.
