Amazon Programme Manager interview questions

Recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn, scheduled a call and then scheduled first screening call with an employee at Amazon. I was then scheduled for 4 round of final interviews with different hiring managers hiring for different roles. The over all experience was really bad. Recruiters at Amazon really do not care about candidate's time at all. For my final round I was given a particular date that I had to interview (not even asked) . I was not given which role I was inteviewing for or the interviewer panel or even the schedule and at the day of the interview the recruiter just called me and said it would be scheduled next week, Again, I didnt receive schedule, roles and interviewers till day before the interview. Follow ups do not work at all, they contact you when it is convenient for them . They will not give you a timeline on getting back with respnse and if they do they do not stick to it. I am stil waiting to hear back although I was given a deadline. This is not the first time I interviewed with Amazon, I had negative experience before and declined the role. I thought it was one off incident but looks like recruiting culture at Amazon is just horrendous. When you talk to Hiring Managers they do get you excited for the role and opporunties that you will get at Amazon but the whole process is a big red flag.

I had three phone interviews and then the “loop”, which was 5 back-to- back interviews onsite. I was first contacted at the end of September and was offered mid November, so quite a long process. Sometimes I would be left waiting for days to find out when the next interview would be scheduled, although they were great about making me aware they would be a next step.
