Difficult interview

Application

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon in Feb 2022

Interview

Video (Chime) interview with the hiring manager, the hiring manager would type as you answered questions. The interviewer helped to form answers to meet their criteria. The interview felt hostile, I came away not wanting to work within this team. Had I gotten through this stage I'd be given a homework task before attending "the loop" - 5 interviews in a day including a presentation about your solution to the homework.
