Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Amazon (New York, NY) en août 2017
Entretien
Was contacted by an internal AWS recruiter about a month after applying. Had a warm up chat with them followed by a scheduled phone screen with the hiring manager I would report to if I got the job. The recruiter told me the standard is to hear from the company within 2 days of a phone interview and up to 5 days after an in person interview. 1 day after first phone interview I was invited to do a second more technical one with a person outside of the team I would be on. The recruiter followed up with me before this 2nd phone interview to make sure I was prepared, quite supportive. 2nd phone interview was ok but because this person had no design background so they struggled to ask any specific questions around visual Design and my web portfolio. They want to know how you problem solve. Struck me more as a culture fit session to see if I'd mesh with AWS personalities. A day after that call they said they were moving on. The recruiter reminded me that interviews were rolling basis and for all I knew someone else had already been offered the gig while they chatted with me as backup. No hard feelings it's all part of the game.
The interview was a great experience and offered valuable learning opportunities. The interviewers were extremely kind, supportive, and helpful throughout the process. However, I realized the importance of staying highly focused and precise, especially when delivering STAR-based answers. Accuracy and clarity in structuring responses play a crucial role, and candidates should remain attentive to ensure their answers align with the question.

Entretien
Long interviews, mainly behavioral questions. Overemphasis on STAR-format answers. Cold and overly formal structure that feels artificial and soulless. No feedback if you’re rejected despite all the time and effort you gave them.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you disagreed with management. Did you resolve the situation to benefit both parties?

Worked with a recruiter who was great! Had an interview scheduled but it was cancelled by the company at the last minute. The application/personality test process was extensive and very detailed, took over two and a half hours to thoughtfully complete.
