Envié una solicitud electrónica. Acudí a una entrevista en Amazon (Seattle, WA)
Entrevista
The phone screen was pretty basic, then the second round phone interview was next..the interviewer was very nice but dug deep into my resume trying to challenge me.. Received an email two days later inviting me to an On-Site. They paid for travel and hotel be safe to plan accordingly. I interviewed on a Monday, flew in Sunday caught a Seahawks game by myself (made a vacation out of it) and prep. The on-site you will have 5-6 interviews 45 min a piece and lunch for about 1hr. The lunch interview was very chill. Be prepared to have several examples and use the STAR process.. They really embrace the core values its like drinking from a firehose. I received an offer but decline. I did a lot of research on the negative and when I got mid way through the interview I realized that they will work the hell out of you seriously.. I had a prior I-Banking background and didn't want to work that type of schedule again. But you're treated like a business owner and from what I gather you will work a ton. If your younger and full or energy go for it.. The avg tenure is 18-24 months and the people that I interviewed with none was there longer than 4 years.. The people were nice, I explore seattle on their dime.. My advice is be detailed, use the STAR method and read the negative reviews because those are accurate sad to say.. You will learn a lot about yourself in the process.Once you have done that decide for yourself if it's for you.

Useless leadership principles framed in behavioral question. Tell me about a time when
You start with an online assessment, which is relatively easy. Then a recruiter reaches out to you if you pass and will ask standard hiring questions. After which, you will then have a phone screen interview and if you pass, you do an interview loop with 5 people. Which is insane for a role that does not pay 100K annually. They also make you go prepare 12-20 STAR stories that you should pretty much memorize.
