I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Estambul) in Feb 2022
Interview
I received the invitation for the first interview at the beginning of February. I have been interviewed 5 times in 1,5 months (including the loop phase). It has been over 1 month but I could not hear anything from them even though I've sent two chaser emails. I don't know why would you spend almost 1 working day with a candidate and then don't even bother giving feedback. They don't even answer my emails. I don't think they follow their own leadership principles which they dig into really hard in the interviews.
Interview questions [5]
Question 1
Tell me about a time when you gave a simple solution to a complex problem.
Tell me about a time when you strongly disagreed with your manager on something you deemed very important to the business. What was it about, and how did you handle it?
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Amazon (Austin, TX)
Interview
The process consisted of a technical and behavioral round. Although the recruiter stated it would cover SQL and behavioral topics, the interview focused entirely on scenario-based and behavioral questions without a live SQL technical assessment. Communication after the interview was poor; the recruiter did not respond to follow-up emails, and an automated rejection notice was sent two days later.
