Interview
I applied through an employee referral. The process os well known process: 1st phone screen, then if passed you go on the "on-sites". It took 2 weeks to get to the phone screen.
The interviewer (HM) was open and clear, no issues there.
The issue are the recruiters. In my case there was not a fit after the phone interview. The recruiter did not communicate for a week. When I sent a follow-up e-mail, the only thing the recruiter did was change the status in the jobs portal. Not a reply, not a phone call. If that is any reflection of how it is to work at Amazon, I guess I dodged a bullet. Intense is all right, disrespectful is not.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you improved some process, tell me about a time when you defined a new metric
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 Application withdrawn.
