Solicité el puesto por otro medio. El proceso duró 2 días. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon en sept 2011
Entrevista
Amazon contacted me when I updated my resume on Monster. After a call from their recruiter, I was asked for a first technical phone interview. I did not do well in that interview, however I got asked to do a second technical interview in which you are asked programming questions I think I did better but I did not get the job.

Pregunta 1
What is customer obsession and how do you apply it
Could not use AI during the first interview. The recruiter was helpful in the screener but the coding exam was tough including the take home test. Did a few Leetcode examples but apparently that wasn't enough.
Applied online via the company careers page. Received a reply from HR within a few weeks inviting me to an initial
screening call over Teams. Process also included an online coding assessment sent as a pre-interview step.
Communication from HR was professional, prompt, and friendly throughout the scheduling stage.
