I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Indianapolis, IN)
Interview
Reached out quickly and set up all travel accommodations. Had to do an online meeting first where the recruiter ran through what to expect. Initially felt like I was genuinely wanted. But I was told 3-5 days for an answer, and hadn't heard anything by 3pm on day 5. Reached out to the recruiter and he had me the rejection in about 30 minutes. Asked for feedback, and he never responded at that point. A simple, "I don't have anything to give you", would have been nice, especially since he was a fellow Veteran. Just really unprofessional in most every aspect by the recruiter. But they're the coolest, or at least what they will tell you.
