I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (New York, NY) in May 2020
Interview
I got hit up by a recruiter on LinkedIn. We hit it off. Great conversations. She felt I met the qualifications for the position. My second interview was scheduled with a member from the team. 1 minute before the interview I got an email saying the interviewer was running late and could I extend my time longer or would I like to reschedule? I rescheduled the interview.
Finally I had my interview. Questions asked was interesting and had nothing to do with my experience. I felt the interviewer was very inexperienced. It really turned me off.
I got a rejection letter with no explanation on why they were moving forward but the recruiter still wants to work with me on finding another positions.
