I interviewed at Amazon (Arlington, VA) in Jan 2021
Interview
Once I received the go for the second interview my prep of the principals and STAR method kicked into high gear. This being said I was ready for a high-quality interview. Instead, I had an interviewer that was late and did not stick to the script. I was shocked by the blank questions and when I drilled down with the hiring manager for specificity, I received the same blanket question. I was perplexed by this. It happened several times during the interview and at one point the interviewer was looking down at his phone for a period of time. At this point, I felt the interview already had his mind made up about another person and completed the interview just because.
