I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon
Interview
Positive interactions with friendly team and manageable challenges, yet obscured expectations and desired profile for the position created uncertainty, impacting a complete understanding of the role. You have to be proactive and ask all questions so you can have a better understanding of the role.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Berlin) in May 2022
Interview
I had quite a negative experience, the interviewer was in a rush, asked two random questions and closed the interview. I have prepared for a week with all the available materials in the internet but she was obviously not interested in my candidacy...
