I applied online for the position was turned down. Then I reapplied a couple months later and was contacted by an Amazon recruiter. I took part in 3-4 phone screenings, traveled for an on-site interview, and then had one more phone screen. I also submitted a writing sample that involved some work. I admire Amazon but the process left me cold to the point I wasn't that disappointed that I didn't get an offer.. I've never interviewed anywhere for a management position that lacked balance. They were auditioning me and shared very little about the position. I still don't know much about the position or the goals. After several phone screens I took two days off from my current job to visit Amazon at the site I would be working at. I spoke to the receptionist. Then I was led to a conference room and parked by myself there with a laptop and an phone. . I spoke to one live person on site for 45 minutes and 4 others via skype and conference call and then shown the door 5 hours later. They literally ordered my a sub sandwich and dropped it off so I could eat by myself for lunch. No tour of the building. No introductions to the team... No meal with my potential boss since I wasn't flying until the following morning. I was trying to be positive and tell myself there was a method to this that I maybe didn't appreciate but flying me down for 2 days for 45 minutes of face time was really disrespectful of my time. and I don't know of a way to spin that. Joining the US Marine Corps was more interactive and respectful..
