Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Typical Amazon 14 Principles, dive deep and drill down.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon in Jan 2019
Interview
Initial phone screening, followed up a 4 hour interview process. 1 hour tour and 3 separate interviewers, all lasting about an hour. I received a call and an email 9 days later, saying they want to offer me a position.
Then the HR contact said I would start mid-end of Februrary, when that time came and went I received an email saying they had no opening initially and I would start in March "sometime" there is 12 days left of the March sometime window.
I liked the Company and everyone I talked with, but HR is not the focus and this is pretty standard from what I have heard.
