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 questions [1]
Question 1
How do you deal with ambiguity?
What does data mean to you?
What does risk mean to you?
Tell me about a difficult decision you had to make?
Did a test task and was called by HR almost immediately for the next round. But salary range (full packet with stock and benefits) and return to office policy did nit much my expectations
very standard. the interviewers had a set of questions to ask about the LPs so we can anticipate beforehand. But I think I got ghosted in the end. One of the interviewers told me about the 2 & 5 rule but its been more than 2 weeks since my last interview and still no response from anyone so idk what happened.
Lengthy, messy schedule, interviews canceled last minute, interviewer late. Rude, disrespectful and dismissive approach toward candidate. Majority of people were from a different team so had no clue about the specifics of the position when asked in the final Q&A. If they treat you like this before joining, can’t imagine after. Application withdrawn.
