I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Amazon (Prague) in Jun 2020
Interview
I had 2 interviews , one with the Recruiter and second with te Hiring Manager.
With the recruiter I talked around 8 minutes and went fast to the next step. No personal consoderantions, just easy background check questions, stratight to the point and that´s it.
With the Hiring Manager, I got into a phone screening interview, she did not want to see me over the camera, she just asked questions for 45 minutes related the 14 principles and say nothing else. It was super cold, distant and not personal at all.
The overall interview in my case made me feel like a process machine, only results are the true value to defend yourself. Their customer obsession is quite debatable to be honest.
I got rejected throough an email even though I already knew I was not moving further withh more interviews, and in that email they say they cannot give you any give type of feedback than the actual rejection. So again their customer obsession is not there to be found.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
they asked me about specific numbers and strategy results from a pla I made for a previous employer going to deep into details that are confidential.
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 Application withdrawn.
