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.

Interview
O processo é super fluído e rápido. Inicia-se com um phone screen para entendimento de adequação cultural e requisitos básicos da role. Após isso passa para um loop com 4 ou 5 entrevistadores onde no geral se pedem cases ligados ao principios da Amazon. Após essa fase já existe um comitê decidindo pela offer ou não.
The process took a very long time and after 4 rounds of interviwes I got only an auto rejection email. The company check only the Leadership principles, and it looks like they don't have an interest in smth else. Anyway people were nice, the case study was interesting as well.
