I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2015
Interview
Typical phone interview with HR with basics about background. Had to contact several times over the phone to clearly establish expectations in terms of role. I was contacted by multiple business groups for multiple roles, however I did not see a good fit. AMZ seems to have good opportunities, however the candidate selection process needs to improve. Also, program manager interviewing should take time to understand the candidates background and their interest as opposed to trying to 'sell' the roles that they are trying to fill. It becomes obvious to the candidate that such roles / team managers would not be a good fit, even if the opportunity is very good.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Was contacted to be interviewed with many business groups. Questions were scenario based and had to provide responses based on real time / project experiences.
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 Application withdrawn.
