I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2021
Interview
Recruiters not professional.
After 4 hours of on-site was told by recruiter they should respond from 2-5 days. They never contacted me. Emailed the three recruiters I had spoken to twice and no one responded.
Obviously didn't get the job but a simple rejection email would have been nice since they said we would debrief regardless.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Interview questions were all based on their leadership principles. Wait until you talk to recruiter and they should tell you which ones will be covered
It had 6 rounds- heavily focussed on leadership principles. they really do cross question almost every other example.......... You get multiple interviewers across the organisation. I thought- the questions were repetitive after one point.
