Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 2 semanas. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Amazon (Dayton, OH).
Entrevista
Totally foreign process. Casual dress for interview. Interview panel in jeans and T-Shirts which is not business casual. Lunch with very new employee from an entirely different business area than applying. Teleconference interview with people in Seattle. Mainly soft skill and hypothetical questions or individual contribution focused. Interview questions unrelated to job description of manager. I had to pay for hotel and parking on my debit card due to mixup at Amazon travel. I have to wait 10 days to get reimbursed.

Pergunta 1
What was your most significant individual contribution!
Phone screen, 5 1 hour interviews for loop
Each hour was dedicated to 2 LPs. System design was more collaborative than i anticipated which was a pleasant surprise. The phone screen mostly focused on my previous experiences

Entrevista
The interview process is straightforward but intense.
First interview was with another Software Dev Manager in the same team. After that the famous loop interview where I had to take 5 interviews in a row over two days ( using paid holidays at work ). Recruiter gave a lot of information about possible questions and helped with materials. However, I had to use same stories few times as the different interviewers asked same questions few times.
Everything is okay, I had a good time during the interviews and it was a good exercise. However, I simply do not understand why they have to call to reject? I am not a customer to be obsessed with. A straight cut rejection via email works better than taking time out of my busy schedule.
If they used this time to share some feedback, that would be useful. If they do not share any reason why I have to continue formal small talk just to get the rejection on my face?

A time you were driving toward a goal and realized more than halfway in that it may not be the best goal.
Had 1 round of System design interview. I thought the interview went ok, if not bad, it went decently well. Received a rejection response, while asking to apply 6 months later.
